" Tasty Vietnamese food, but my last visit was a bit off. I noticed the bread wasn’t as fresh as usual, which is surprising! The owners are lovely and really welcoming, though. I’ll give it another shot because I usually love everything here. " (*Curated Review*)

" Good food but the atmosphere is a bit cramped. I loved the chicken banh mi, but wish they had more room for customers. Excellent service, and I consider it great for takeout. " (*Curated Review*)
