Our waitress, Jenna, was fabulous! 5 of the 6 meals were outstanding but the salmon was a touch dry (hence the 4 stars instead of 5 in the food category).

We ordered the bahn mi sandwich and the veggie bowl. Both were cooked perfectly - veggies just crisp enough, flavor was rich but not overpowering and fries were crispy. Our bottle of wine was half price so we appreciated that special. Service was friendly and welcoming while not being too attentive. Great quiet date night with delicious food!
