I read that some of the staff from Nha Trang defected here so came to give it a try. The ambiance is different and, unfortunately, the service isn't any better, but my meal was of a similar calibre to what I've had in the past at Nha Trang.The set lunches looked like an easy place to start so I chose the cold vermicelli with spring rolls.

The set lunches looked like an easy place to start so I chose the cold vermicelli with spring rolls. Being offered a hot drink with the option to upgrade to a cold drink for extra money tells me clearly that this is made-for-HKies a restaurant: 西人 never had parents forbidding them from taking cold drinks with meals.
My noodles/spring rolls came quickly and were nicely presented. Plenty of sauces available on the table. The noodles and spring onion garnish tasted fresh, and the spring rolls were crispy without being greasy. There was also a judicious use of Five Spice mix or maybe ginger powder in the spring rolls to give them an extra bit of sweetness. I found that quite appealing.
Since I came just after opening time, I qualified for the early bird discount (-15% if you clear out before 12:45). I think $47 including service charge for a decent bowl of noodles and spring rolls plus iced lemon tea is good value for the location and quality of the food. Contrast this with that other Vietnamese place on Wellington St. where the lines are always long...
