Westside Vietnamese. Hmmm.
Conveniently located on Santa Monica blvd.
Nothing to write home about inside but fine.
Fresh drip Vietnamese coffee. You let it drip into the sweetened condensed milk and then pour in ice and mix.
The final drink is yummy.
Classic Spring Rolls. Not bad but not great either. Sauce wasn’t that exciting and they didn’t fully have that interesting herbal blend you find in Vietnam.
Table sauces.
Two beef (rare and cooked) pho. This wasn’t bad, particularly with hoisin (which I love). There are the usual noodles buried down there.
Condiments.
The menu isn’t huge, mostly pho and a few classics, but I’d come back again if I’m in the neighborhood and want some pho. It was fine, but certainly not the amazing stuff you occasionally get at a very good pho place.
