Food Quality
Pros:
"Calamari was the best I've had for years, so soft and perfectly cooked."
"Every dish we had was not only delicious, but also carefully crafted and so elegantly presented."
"The boneless foie gras chicken wings are unique and perfect."
"The sautéed green beans were one of the best things I have ever eaten."
"The portion size was generous, and the food tasted quite authentic."
"A very big surprise with this Vietnamese restaurant. Intense flavour but authentic taste."
"Every mouthful was an experience and was cooked to absolute perfection."
"Best Vietnamese food we’ve ever had! The waygu pho was unbelievable."
Cons:
"Summer rolls could have done with some more prawn as they got lost with everything else."
"Pho was okay, soft shell crab was incredibly salty. Small portions. Prawns were not fresh."
"Most of what we had was good but I don't think I would come again. The calamari is quite chewy."
"The food is not only served in elegant style but also very tasty. You can also expect good service, too."
"Food ok, atmosphere ok yet expensive. We love pho and to be honest I had tastier than this place."
"The portion of chicken wing with foie gras was very small with only 3 pieces and without bones you lose the satisfaction of eating wings."
"The spring rolls came in hoisin sauce, which tasted weird. It would have tasted better with peanut butter sauce."
"The pho is overpriced for what you get. It really is quite average at best."

Cons:
"Extremely rude staff and toxic business culture. I came in earlier than my friend. Although the whole restaurant is EMPTY, the front door staff asked me to wait in front of the door."
"While I was having the meal, i heard the staff question the other table. They have 2 people but only ordered one dish."
"Been there twice -- the first time everything was pretty much fantastic. Ended up not being served for nearly an hour."
"Food was good however we were asked to leave right after we paid. Supposedly there was a reservation but nobody told us when we came that a table is free only for an hour."
"Horrible service!we didn’t order a lot so they force us to change the table!"
"Visited yesterday for lunch (Saturday). The food was alright and not overpriced, HOWEVER: one of our starters, the scallops carpaccio, had a black human hair clearly visible on the plate."
"The waiters and waitresses were pretty rude, miserable and blunt, as if they really didn’t want to be there."
"The manager is lovely so friendly and funny and informal with her guests. Really really good food."
