Always been happy to go there for the last 10 years. Spring rolls are great.
First time customer and not disappointed! Generous portions. I had the Shrimp Combo and an Avocado Shake. Both were excellent. Looking forward to trying other menu items.
I dined here a few years ago and couldn't remember why I didn't go back, so I tried it again recently. I really wanted to like this place, but I don't think I can recommend it. My spouse and I found it disappointing overall.Positives:-The owner/family seem friendly. There is artwork by the owner's son up all over the walls. Cute home-y vibe.-Huge family-style portions*Negatives:-*The "huge portions" are ~75% vegetables...-Big chunks of celery in everything-The "lemongrass chicken" is actually just chicken stirfry. They didn't even grill it. This is not the standard lemongrass chicken you'll receive at any other Vietnamese restaurant...-This is a big one: take photos of the actual food for your website! The coconut prawns we got were nothing like the ones in the menu image. Yes, it says "photo for reference only", but this is absurd. In the menu image, the coconut prawns are crispy and covered in some sort of panko or batter. The ones we got were not battered at all--actually quite soggy.tl;dr --> nice folks, but the food just doesn't hold up
Out of the way, little dated spot....but great friendly staff, excellent food....and very accommodating owners....go to spot when we come back to Victoria...
Pho was not pho. Broth was pork broth. Sad.
Great customer service!! The food is spectacular, very tasty and generous portions Loved looking at all the art and finding out the story behind them. This is a great place to lunch or dinner and you will not be disappointed. I highly recommend.
This is a wonderful family run Vietnamese restaurant decorated with family art - most the owner’s son’s art. The service is excellent and the menu is large and varied. The chalk board is definitely worth checking out too as those items change every now and then. Sizzling Fish is fabulous. Another of our favourites is the five spice squid, though the war won ton is one of the best I’ve ever had. We usually order from the menu on the chalk board as they're definitely the specialties.
5-star restaurant! Beautiful presentation, delicious flavours and perfect textures. Very clean restaurant with friendly service and relaxing atmosphere. Our 2nd visit and, now, my new favorite eatery. I highly recommend the honey-garlic pork, crisp on the outside and juicy tender on the inside. Our dessert was deep fried banana with warm caramel coated ice cream and basil leaf is a magical blend of flavours. We will be back again! We love all the artwork too.
Charming family-run restaurant serving consistently delicious food. Have been a happy regular for many years!
Victoria on a long weekend during a pandemic makes it difficult to find a great place to eat. So we went on a whim a bit out of the downtown core and found this gem. Family run and fresh made cooking - wow, what a delight. Vietnamese with a touch of Chinese - the spicing and flavours were excellent! The Pad Thai was superb and the wonton soup has a delicious lemongrass flavour. The price as very right. Definitely worth the drive! Oh, and you'll love the artwork on the walls too!
