    Great Vietnamese Food

    • Your Rating: 0/5 Stars

    This place is not far from where I live, so over the years I have taken meals home about once monthly (a sign that I like it). Everything I have ordered there has been really good. My favorite is the red curry -- a stir fry with yams or sweet potatoes, onions, chicken, and spices, served over steamed rice. I have never found this dish anywhere else. The combination of onions and sweet potations is absolutely fabulous, and the spices are reasonably subtle but give it a final kick. The ginger catfish is excellent too for those who like ginger. Bottom line: This restaurant serves great food.

    Authentic Vietnamese

    This place serves both Chinese and Vietnamese cuisine. The owners are Vietnamese.

    I had Com Ga (#59) with chicken. It was excellent. It seemed to be stir fried chicken and onions, and was served over steamed rice. It was served on a reusable (not disposable) plate, with real metal utensils, and the cashier/waitress brought it to my table.

    The decor/ambience was old. Not really a place to impress someone, unless they really wanted good Vietnamese cuisine. But the dining area was very clean, and neatly kept.

    At approximately 7:00pm, on a Thursday, there was only one other table of two diners, and myself. So this place probably relies on the lunch crowd from the surrounding office/industrial businesses to stay afloat.

    I'm definitely going back for more Vietnamese cuisine. Good prices. The entree was only $6.50.

    The only negative as far as I'm concerned was that the Diet Pepsi tasted way past its "use by" date. Aspartame (the sweetener in diet soft drinks) breaks down over time, and you get a funky taste. That's why there's an expiration date on diet soft drinks.
