| 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: 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.
User Rating: 5 out of 5 starsEach dish was delicious!: Most of the customers in the restaurant got the crab special, and it was obvious why. It was delicious, although people who don't prefer pepper may not like it. The portions were small, so we ordered one dish per person. We ordered all fish dishes, and they were all deliciously seasoned and perfectly cooked. I highly recommend this restaurant. This is a place you'd want to wear nice clothes to - I felt out of place in jeans.
