So glad we tried this place! Definitely message on WhatsApp before you want to visit to make sure you can get a table. A few people were turned away while we were there. Staff are amazingly friendly and kind. We’re very accommodating of our family with young children. The food is so delicious! We tried the Vietnamese pancakes and the special fish dish. So incredibly good! Thank you so much ☺️

We came to this place for dinner for the first time and loved it. We returned three days later for lunch and had the same feeling as the first time. Fantastic food, very friendly staff, and a sweet, welcoming atmosphere. We ordered four different dishes, and each one was better than the last, especially the pork skewers. Highly recommended. Reservations are recommended due to the limited seating available. A magnificent experience not to be missed.

We visited this restaurant after reading the positive reveiews, but unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to our expectations. On arrival, the first thing we noticed was the scent of air freshener, rather than the aroma of food. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated, with stunning artwork on the walls and a lovely atmosphere. The staff were excellent —friendly, attentive, and professional, providing great service from start to finish. While the food was enjoyable and well presented, we found it lacked the depth of flavour that we had come to expect from our dining experiences elsewhere in Vietnam. Compared to many local places we visited, the dishes felt somewhat toned down and less authentic. In our opinion, the restaurant is more focused on being accessible for tourists than those seeking a traditional local dining experience. If you're looking for a comfortable setting with attentive service, you may enjoy it. However, if your priority is experiencing the bold, authentic flavours of Vietnamese cuisine, there are other places we would recommend first.

Intimate restaurant with 14-16 seats. The staff / service is excellent. The food was delicious. We ordered way too much soup, pork, beef and seafood but we ate almost all of it as the food was so good. The staff were very helpful and showed us how to eat / make our rolls. We also got a free Vietnamese dessert which was the only pic I took. Worth the visit and very good value for money. We also enjoyed the Dalat white wine with our meal.

This beautifully authentic family restaurant offers deliciously fresh food packed full of flavour. Sweet and sour prawns were delicious with steamed rice. Lemongrass and pork skewers were tasty and a great way to start lunch. Air-conditioning is great and local beer is refreshing. This place is popular so make a booking or prepare to wait - it is totally worth it.
