Sigh, it pains me to give this review because I REALLY wanted to like this place. I feel like there's so much potential, but the food just really missed the mark for me and sadly I probably will not be back. Ambiance / Service: cute and casual. The backyard area is quite lovely when the weather is nice. At one point we were one of two other tables eating (at 8pm on a Saturday) and the restaurant stopped playing music for a long time, so that kind of through the ambiance off. Service was good. The only small negative was that we had an outdoor reservation and halfway through eating we had to move inside because there was a private party that rented the entire section. It was a bit disruptive to our dinner. Food: and this is where the main disappointment lands. Most of the dishes were just off. There are a lot of solid reviews, so perhaps it was an off night. We did family style and ordered the below for two people:-Fried Shrimp Toasts: this was probably the best thing we had. Comes with two small halves. Flavorful and great texture. -Open Faced Vietnamese Sandwich: I don't usually like pate, but was curious about this. I actually enjoyed.-Papaya Salad: I didn't enjoy. I appreciate a different take on this dish, but honestly just longed for the traditional papaya salad. It tasted like a zoodle dish with pesto sauce. -Vietnamese Crepe: this was just ok for me. I think it's just a personal preference though because the shrimp paste had almost a sweet taste to it that I'm not sure I enjoyed. -Littleneck Clams: underwhelming. -Fried Crab Parcels: I did not like this. Perhaps there was something off this night because it had a very odd and off putting taste. They were very soggy and overall did not taste good. -Vermicelli Bowl: this has potential, but I was very underwhelmed. For almost $30 I expected more. It needed more sauce and pickled veggies. The only pickled veggies it comes with are the tiny slivers in the sauce. It made me long for just the traditional vermicelli bowls.-Curry (with steak added): this was quite flavorful and hearty. We enjoyed.
