4.0 of 5 stars. You know a restaurant still "has it" if:- They've change locations twice since you last went and the Shaking Beef is still worth the trip- The wait staff is as attentive as something you'd expect from...

4.0 of 5 stars. I've been here many times, and it never disappoints. My most recent visit was on Friday afternoon for a work lunch. There were 15 of us, so we were seated at their long table. It can get very noisy...

2.0 of 5 stars. This isn't really Vietnamese food. It's really just another shot at some kind of California/Asian fusion. It is however very tasty for the most part but also overly expensive. The space is sterile...

3.0 of 5 stars. The food is still great but I miss the old slanted door on Valencia. This new place has more of a feeling of a dining hall rather than a restaurant.

DONT GO if you are looking for good vietnamese food

The only thing great about this place is the location. But besides that the food is overpriced. I had the shaken beef and it was ok but not worth the money. You could get a better shaken beef at Little Saigon...

4.0 of 5 stars. It's NOT Vietnamese food, so stop saying "over priced" or "not authentic." It's not Lee's. It's not what you'd find in Garden Grove, and it's definitely not what you find Hanoi. Yeah, it's...

Yelp.com Review - by Amelia S.

3.0 of 5 stars. overpriced vietnamese food. You'll get the same kind of food in the tenderloin / clement or irving at a fraction of the price. The restaurant ambiance is nice though, but not worth the $$.
