This is a new joint in town; it was previously some kind of Ughur/Chinese place I think. Anyway, now it's Vietnamese!
The place is clean and reasonably stylish and clever. It's very casual - you go up to a counter and order and then wait at a table and then they bring you your food, and then it's awkwardly not clear if they are cleaning up your stuff or if you are, and it seems like a collaborative effort, but whatever.
The people are cool.
The food is good. We've been there two times so far, and both times they were out of something we ordered, which is fine because we're cool, and it's the summer while all the students are gone, so I get that they're in minimal-mode, but BE AWARE. The food is good. They have a Bahn Mi style sandwich that's ok. I grew up eating Bahn Mi cooked in a grill in a parking lot, and there were slabs of pork hanging out of those. This isn't like that - this is a much more minimal Bahn Mi and the bread dominates it, but it's still good. They also have a Chicken Pho which is outstanding, and a huge portion. And they've got vegan and vegetarian options if that's your thing. read more
