Can't believe I've slept on this restaurant for years. The food does the talking here. 1. Steamed Rice Cakes with Taro 4/5 2. Spring Rolls with Chicken 5/5, an herbaceous dish, served with a subtly spicy fish sauce 3. Shaking lamb cubes 5/5, great with the Italian red 4. Weaving rice noodle with fish 5/5, the fried shallots pop in this dish 5. Clay pot rice with fish 10/5 - just get this The remodeled interior is very welcoming, modern, and has interesting art and motorbikes from Vietnam. Classical music in background (chef's kiss). Also great that the place serves demi-bottles of reasonably priced wine. Beer's great too. Our server exuded hospitality, very attentive, and proud to tell us about the chef/restaurateur. Thanks for having us. We'll be back!
Love the japan/scandi/retro ambiance and decor! Liking the concept of vietnamese tapas. However the food was a bit underwhelming. The summer fresh roll was particulary sad. The shitake salad and catfish clay pot were the highlights. Been to other vietnamse "tapas" and the dishes had more impactful flavor. Given the small portions...was expecting more flavor to come through. Likely will not be returning.

Beautifully delicious place to have dinner. Scrumptious, well curated and crafted dishes that aren’t overly seasoned. Tastefully Designed. Quaint, soothing place to dine. We love this new addition to our neighborhood. We hope you expand the menu to see more options as you progress. Thank you for opening here.

Absolutely loved this spot. I’ve never seen Vietnamese done tapas style and it’s brilliant. Stir fry noodles, turmeric fish, chicken crispy rolls. Everything delish. I would bring friends back here in a heartbeat.
Bae and I had a music industry function in the hills behind this stretch of street. I saw this place was newish and had amazing reviews. The spot is a little hard to find which is OK but unusual for this relatively dowdy stretch of neighborhood where the raining cuisine is still, in 2024, red sauce italian(!) I love going to the Capri with friends during the holiday season but this was a wednesday night in July. It was literally empty when we walked in and it made Bae nervous but I'd read the reviews so I reassured her. Like the name indicates it's a Vietnamese restaurant that serves food tapas style. So Bae loved it, I'm not a huge fan of tapas period, not even in the basque country or Spain, but this is still a great restaurant and deserves support! I would go back for sure if I was back here in the area, maybe before a vidiots movie.

We ate here for the first time tonight and thought the food was exceptional. In fact, we managed to wolf down the first two dishes before I got a chance to take pictures. In case you were wondering those dishes were: the Vietnamese salad with shitake and tofu. Shredded cabbage and vegetables along with shitake and some lightly fried tofu- dressing seemed to be a warm vinaigrette that greatly enhanced the flavor. The taro crispy spring rolls were also amazing, accompanied by fish sauce and mint, carrot and jicama condiments. For the picture I did take, that’s what we came here for. Turmeric Fish in clay pot did not disappoint- rice was fluffy on the top layer and crunchy on the bottom layer- so good! The whole meal was less than $70.

I’m surprised this spot hasn’t gone viral yet. Amazing atmosphere, very comfortable seating, excellent service and the food was phenomenal. Can’t wait to try everything on the menu!
I had this place saved as a place I wanted to try for wayyyy too long! I’m mad I didn’t come sooner. The food was unique, filling, and delicious. The ambiance is top notch.the drink selection hit the spot. The service was so warm. Check this place out. I will be back soon.
