Firstly what an amazing place!, the staff were so friendly and welcoming . Greeted with smiles by everyone working on the floor. Plenty of space to sit considering it was at a busy time of evening and dinner time for many. The service was outstanding, from ordering to receiving my food felt like a few minutes.

We are group of 10. All our orders tasted amazing. Beef pho is a must try and their fried noodle. Some of the items in the menu is not available which is okay ‘coz they offer alternatives.

Parking available in the building. They are adding service charge on your bill. If you have, use zomato pro...
