The restaurant was well lit and clean. Staff were attentive. The food here was amazing! Probably the best Vietnamese food I've had in Philly so far. The meats were not overly charred and tender. The ingredients were fresh. Not to mention the large portions on the vermicelli! The banh mi bread was really good and crispy on the outside. The only thing odd was to pay and tip before we ate food. I guess we could've left tips on the table after instead if we had cash. That said, it was convenient to go up to order without waiting for the waiters. Thanks for the good food!!

I would maybe not include tooth picks in the take out items since someone else may have trouble seeing it and bite into it as well

I had the iced matcha with vanilla that was perfectly balanced. Looking forward to trying other drinks in the future. Would Recommend!

The staff is friendly and great at recommending new and fun drinks. Unfortunately the last two times I've stoped by, my iced latte was a bit burnt. Not to the extent that is wasn't drinkable, but not awesome for an 8 dollar drink. I grabbed a matcha on my first visit and that was great, I'll be sticking to their matcha on future visits. Overall, a great cafe to work from and hang out a bit!

My family and I were in Philly for a World Cup match and decided to stop in for a chai latte and a coffee. There was a short line, and when it was our turn, we were greeted by the sweetest employee. She was incredibly welcoming, patient, and took the time to explain the different coffee blends they offered. We ended up getting the Colombia blend, which my husband absolutely loved. Now, why do I regret coming here? Because this was, without a doubt, the BEST chai latte I have ever had in my life. It completely ruined every other chai latte for me. The bar has been set so high that every chai I've had since has been a disappointment. I can't wait to make it back to Philly!

I've honestly never had anything bad on the menu, so go nuts trying things. They won't warm up their pastries, FYI, in case that's a deal breaker for you. This is very understandable if you're in there when they're even a little busy, however - it would murder the workflow and make wait times a pain. This is a small but very popular shop in the middle of a high traffic neighborhood with an elementary school around the corner, so if you're trying to hunker down and have a whole work day, for your own sake, and the sake of the neighborhood, go somewhere else. It's a good spot for a coffee meeting, or an hour or two of work, though. Peak times are early to midday in general, but especially on the weekends, as with most coffee shops.

The drink menu is pretty standard overall, but I tried the Yemenite Latte and really liked it. It has a nice spice kick to it, kind of reminding me of ginger and maybe a bit of cinnamon.

Definitely planning to give the bagels a shot next time I'm in.
