★★★★★ 5.0 Christine Uyemura · Feb 2026

One of the best restaurants in Oakland and best Vietnamese restaurants I've ever eaten at anywhere. The food here is so crazy flavorful. We've been here a few times and honestly every single dish has been amazing. Most recently we tried some dishes outside of what we might usually order and had the fried catfish dish, the shrimp ban xeo and the vegan bo bun hue. Everything was so tasty and fresh. I couldn't believe how much flavor was in the vegan bo bun hue (I've also had the non vegan and it's very delicious as well). The beef carpaccio dish and glutinous dumplings are some other favorites. Portions are also super generous. The cocktails are also excellent and inventive. They're never too sweet, sometimes a little spicy and always balanced with a cute presentation. I really think you c

This is one of my favorite Vietnamese places in Oakland- food is delicious, service is excellent, and interior is nice. Would be good for a cute little date night. My favorite appetizer to get is the Banh Khot. Absolutely yummy! It’s crispy and has just the right amount of coconut and flavor. I’ve been here multiple times and it’s something I always order. I don’t think i’ve had anything bad from this place. Their drinks are really good as well. It’s a bit on the pricey side for Viet food, but it’s well worth for the taste and quality. Parking is on the street and I typically don’t have an issue finding something nearby.

Will definately come back for some more of that viet soul food! 🤩 We were 2 adults + 2 children and had pho, banh khot (must-try!), mango salad, banh uot and viet iced coffee. Everything was fresh, colourful and tasty 😍The vibe was friendly and laid back. We had a super nice conversation with one of the regulars and the chef even came out to say hello! Keep up the good work – can't wait to come back again! 🙌😄

★★★★★ 5.0 Bhushaaa · Feb 2026

This place is legit. No kidding. This restaurant inspired me to actually go to Vietnam to experience it for myself. Yes I got the Bun Cha in the Tay Ho neighbourhood right by Ho Tay. The food here is fantastic. Just like what it was there. Perhaps it might take you to Hanoi too!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Phuong Luong · Oct 2025

The food is okay, prices are expensive for what it is. We did not like the banh cuon here, the rolls are too thick and the pork inside are dry. Everything on the vermicelli bowl was decent but stale/not fresh or hot.
