This hidden gem in San Diego county is THE BEST! The quaint restaurant has white table cloths and napkins and the cooking is done by the owners wife. Every item on the extensive menu is fantastic! I recommend Vegetable Ambrosia, each soup is great, Ginger Sole is fresh and lite and the Vegetarian Imperial Rolls ROCK! Great lunch & dinner... more

I've been to many Vietnamese restaurants, and I have to say this is the worst up-to-date. The food is stingy in portion and way overpriced (in the teens range), completely bland and is anything but authentic. My meal for two total to ~$45 before tips. It was a big disappointment and money poorly spent. more

I lived within walking distance to this wonderful restaurant from the day they opened and I could have eaten there everyday and been very happy!

Small, warm cozy atmosphere with great service and a wonderful extensive wine list for a Vietnamese restaurant. The dishes are gourmet like entrees you can't get at any other Vietnamese restaurant. The imperial rolls are the best, can't go wrong with the cook it yourself beef grill. Very clean and one of the best! more

I love this place. If you want the best, well-prepared, gourmet Vietmamese food. The atmosphere is just ok, but there is a mystique about this place. The owner, Andy is adorable and eager to please, I always feel like I am entering the home of an old friend. Brilliant menu and even better food, this place is amazing! more
