While the Vietnamese rolls are amazing, I was disappointed with near everything else. I was point to a table instead of shown, the server served another table that got there after myself, I was never offered anything but water, I felt like an inconvenience and like she had much better things to do (with a grand total of 7 people in the restaurant including myself).

Caution however, you will get the odd garlic burp.... if you have not tried Saigon II. Give it a go, I am sure you will not be...
