Located on the ground floor right across from Trader Joe's. Go in the door, turn right, and walk past the ice cream/bubble tea... shop to be seated. It looks a bit dark even when it's open. There's no hostess out front so be patient and someone will be by toseat you. For pick up, go straight to the back near the window. Service was friendly, but a bit slow. Food overall was verygood. Big flavors and a nice atmosphere. Definitely worth trying this place. Read more
After walking from King Street on a hot, sunny day, I wanted a light meal and chose the $12 lunch special. I ordinarily don't... order deep fried food, so the roll was a special treat. I decided it was the perfect time to try banh mi for the first time, soI can't rate it as compared to others. I just know it was really good. If you're planning to shop at Trader Joe's, Sunday inSaigon is right next door. Read more
This restaurant is Americanized- Vietnamese and has very nice decorations. But the food was horrible to me, it could be good for... my husband but it wasn't good for me. I ordered Hu Tieu, caramelized pork bun and Hue Spicy Beef Noodle Soup, they all wereuntasty. 1) Caramelized Pork Bun was salty and sour although the meat was soft. 2) Hu Tieu wasn't truly Vietnamese Hu Tieu. It'sjust a noodle with a bunch of seafood and dark thick sauce. 3) Bun Bo Hue: my husband liked it but I did not, the broth tastelike Pho soup and it has a sweetness of MSG. Well the ambiance of this restaurant is nice and the coolest thing here is the menu( the menu is LED - lit upon opened ) but I don't think I wanna go back here again. Read more
We came here for a Saturday morning brunch. Made reservations, not knowing if it would be very busy or not (reservations weren't... necessary). The bottomless brunch was $38 per person, along with 5¢ cocktails mainly consisting of Bellini variants. Myfavorite was the Saigon Bloody Mary which was VERY spicy from red chilli flakes in the mix. If you can't handle spicy, move onto the next. The Banh Bao was all right. The table favorites were the Pho, Mi Xao Gion (crispy noodles topped with stir friedveggies and choice of meat as pictured), and the Cha Gio Ga (fried chicken egg rolls). If you're looking for more traditionalbreakfast choices, they do have french toast, pancake options, and plenty of items with eggs included. Our bill came out to $150including tip for 3 people. The service was great. Everyone in our party was content with the meal (lots of msg so we werecraving water throughout the day). If I lived near Alexandria, I may come here for certain dishes but I think the brunch optionwas a one time thing for me unless I'm entertaining a visiting friend who is craving a Vietnamese bottomless brunch. The foodwas certainly authentic! Read more
Wow. So many specials. Such great decor. The food is amazing as well. We come here multiple times a week and have made this a go... to choice. Definitely ask for recommendations as the menu is very different from anything else in Alexandria. Sit at the bar forthe best specials Read more
I come here frequently for the boba teas and other specialty drinks. Many of the beverage options are creative and tasty, but... the odd options could hit your stomach hard, so caution there. The food is a little americanized but it's still pretty good. Thebanh mi sandwiches have always been consistent in my experience and the noodles aren't amazing but good enough to try. Read more
