“ My husband and I often go to this place. The food is delicious, especially if you like Vietnamese cuisine. Today, unfortunately, my order was brought when my husband had almost finished his dish, even though there was no full fit at the restaurant. But more often than not, the speed of service here is good, I guess today is just the day. Prices are reasonable, not high. ”
