Would not have stopped but that I saw, lettered neatly on the sidewalk chalkboard, "Vietnamese Crepe" , and seeing as it's not so easy to find Bánh xèo, and I like it, so I sallied forth. I was courteously welcomed and quickly seated and I ordered the Bánh xèo. It was delicious and I enjoyed it tremendously. I was most impressed with the many dishes described on the menu and I hope that I will have the opportunity to eat here a few more times.
So good. Awesome legit viet. Game dishes too
I'm not a fan of this place. The waiters had attitude, and the food wasn't too bad, but the service guarantee we won't be back.
Ordered a family style Dinner for $125, dishes were small, there was hardly enough fish in the clay pot fish dish, the fried whole fish (tilapia) was borderline spoiled and it was deep fried, but was way over fried. The clams dish was also bad, mostly gravy and no more than 12 dead b-4 cooked claims in the plate. The dishes were of poor quality, except for Canh Chua Catfish, it was okay. Also had additional a la carte dishes of Shaken beef/venison too, and there were hardly any meat, few pieces of meat were on mostly beds of raw veggies. Given that we are in the high inflationary time, however, this restaurant is way too expensive and they serve mediocre meats along with poor food preparation. Just as I got the bill, one of the staff sat on a chair next to me at my table kept looking at the tip amount as I was writing the tip/total - a sign of poor taste and desperation. Parking: N/a
OMG! Delicious!!!! Com ca thit ko tho - Carmelized braised fish (I apologize for not spelling this correctly. That what I ordered and it was AMAZING. So I came in expecting to order the baked catfish, but didn’t see it on the lunch menu that I was handed. Also it takes about an hour and is for minimum 2 people (about 4lbs of a whole fish). I did not end up being disappointed. However I would have enjoyed some sort of veggie in addition to the rice and fish. But talk about FLAVOR! Sooooo good!! I also ordered shrimp spring rolls due to their $18 minimum when paying with card (Apple Pay in my case). They had an interesting flavor due to the shrimp Im guessing. It was nice and refreshing. Great size. There was a nice spice added to the peanut sauce. Cleanliness apparently is something that’s talked about in other reviews. It seemed clean and nice, with some homie music that I’d never heard before. After talking to the owner he mentioned the restaurant focus on home cooked Vietnamese food. If this is what homecooking is, sadly I’ve been sleeping on Vietnamese food for far too long. Thank you for Sàu for making my day and expanding my food/flavor pallet.
Their food is pretty good, definitely coming back to try their other stuff
