| About: | Located in an odd-looking business/shopping complex on Polk Street, this Vietnamese seafood restaurant is known all over the city. Walk up two flights of stairs (or take the elevator) and you will find that the atmosphere is elegant, the dress code is semi-formal and the food is excellent. People come from miles around to feast on the Roast Crab and garlic-infused noodles, but most of the other menu items are equally good. If you are on a budget, watch out: the prices seem low, but once you start to order, they can add up quickly. |

User Rating: 5 out of 5 starsRecommended to us by a friend (Thanks Heidi). I have to agree with most of the post here. They had a dress code which I liked (they told us when we called for reservations). Had the roasted crab, the garlic noodles, and fried rice and they were all superb! Our server was Paul and he was on top of everything. Spoke with some of the customers near our table and they were all very friendly and fun. The Manager stopped by to see if they were meeting our expectations. Great experience. We will come back here on our next visit to SF.
User Rating: 3 out of 5 starsIt felt like a typical fusion restaurant in Vegas (in not a good way). When we walked in, the staff gave us a look, and told us there's a dress code (which wasn't even mentioned in the menu). The sauce on the Pan Roasted Halibut was too salty. Ravioli wasn't bad at all, but they didn't serve it with any bread - I had to order a side of garlic bread. Granted I did not have their famous crab (because crab was not in-season), this restaurant is overrated and overpriced. If they were 30% cheaper, I would give it 4 stars. They should stop pretending to be a high-brow gourmet restaurant and adopt more family friendly atmosphere.
User Rating: 4 out of 5 starsThe food was delicious, especially the well known An (sp?) noodles, but the lobster and noodles wasn't all that. VERY little lobster so pretty much a noodle dish. Service wasn't the greatest, and a bit pricey. Dinner for two with wine expect at least $150 easy. But the food itself was good.
