Stopped by this place for lunch after doing a little bit of work at a cafe nearby in the Thai Dien neighborhood. I found the space quite cozy and elegant with its dark wood and grey green color palette—clean, inviting, and a cool respite from the heat outside. The service was exceptional—efficient, courteous, and attentive without being overbearing, so thank you Thu for a lovely lunch. The food was also pretty solid, contemporary takes on traditional Vietnamese flavors and dishes. I’m a small bites kind of person, so I mainly ordered from the appetizers and small plates menu. Definitely on the pricier side than what you would normally pay for a meal in this city, but the flavors struck a good balance between being accessible and authentic.
