We decided to eat here and escape the busy Springvale hub. The first thing, you'll notice is that the place is clean and bright. Then you will notice that the wait staff is very attentive till the point you wonder whether you're in a Springvale-style Viet restaurant. Given the former, you would expect that the food to be excellent, but it was average. The grilled pork chop that came with the traditional broken rice seemed like someone had taken to it with a mallet to make it appeared larger than it was. It was not filling for my male companion. I had the bun thit neung (grilled pork and vermicelli), the humoungous bowl it came in was filled with vermicelli, but the pork portion was small. Given that times are tight, maybe they should be given another chance?
Approximate cost: $15.00
Although it is hidden away it is extremely busy and has locals. Staff are very friendly and attentive and give good suggestions on dishes. Food is excellent and not heavy. Dishes are great value. Atmosphere is like you are in Vietnam and has decor similar.
