Fred S. • September 15, 2019Strange place. For an authentic Vietnamese restaurant: expensive, very sloppy service and cleanliness, pretty good food, limited low quality meat. Feels like they’re squeezing some margin out?

Mike W. • July 21, 2017Authentic Eastern European comfort food is a bit of rarity in SF, but this place knocks it out of the park. Everything tastes homemade and the prices are extremely reasonable. WinstonWanders.com

Fernando T. • February 27, 2013This place is a great interpretation of mexican food. They don't try to seem authentic and fail, they take the best of street mexican food and mix it with an american twist. Recommended.
