Frommer's Review

The atmosphere is candlelit and intimate, very Vietnamese, with cane furniture and tile floors, yet its three floors of subdued dining are a still a nice place to duck out of the midday sun. Set lunches are an affordable and light option: soup, spring rolls, and a light curry for $2 (£1.10). The long menu emphasizes seafood and seasonal specials. Particularly outstanding are the deep-fried prawn in coconut batter and the crab sautéed in salt and pepper sauce. The portions are very healthful, Asian family-style, so go with a group if at all possible, and sample as many delicacies as possible.
