Amazing tea selection. Folks working there are very friendly. The brew each order fresh... which means it can sometimes be a wait. A lot of seating.

One of my favorite egg wraps... so yummy. I also like their portobello egg sandwich, which can be substituted for a salad.
They used to be a food cart and we're super lucky they choice to move to our neighborhood when they transitioned to a brick and mortar.

So, I'm Vietnamese... I'm a bit picky when it comes to this cuisine. So far, I like this place. Their catfish stew is really good. I also like their noodle and grilled shrimp bowl. I had the pho (without meat) and it was tasty. Does it rival the pho in Vietnam? No, but it's hard to beat the real deal.

I like their vietnamese soups... they only offer two choices a day. On the weekends you may want to get there before noon or at least call it in before they run out.
