Pretty Good Food. I ate at a Pho24 when I was in Ho Chi Minh City, so this is some authentic stuff right here. Alright, you don't actually get curry and cold vermicelli in Vietnam, but it's been adjusted (think glocalisation) for the Chinese market. I came here for lunch and they have a lunch set for around $40-60, depending what dishes you get. You'll get a start, main and desert/drink.

Firstly, the Pork Chops were deep fried, but they weren't exactly only. And unlike some other so called "Vietnamese restaurants" in the city, their food actually uses ingredients real Vietnamese food uses, such as fresh Basil leaves, mint leaves, as well as lemon grass. You can taste the freshness for the lemon grass with the pork chops.
With the curry, it came in a huge pot, which isn't bad considering it's only $48. The dish was huge, with quite a lot of beef, sweet potatoes and potatoes to eat (Ladies, don't get this dish). Again, I love their use of fresh herbs. The curry itself was creamy, and not spicy at all.
Also, they have quite a large selection of Vietnamese deserts. I know people won't think Creme Caramel is a Vietnamese desert. But surprisingly, it is. Sort of. After the French colonized Vietnam anyways. If you go to Vietnam, you tend to get a lot of French deserts. So, don't call this restaurant BS unless you headed down to Vietnam. This has to be one of the most authentic Vietnamese restaurants in the city.
