Review


I got the Vietnamese Bee Boong and chicken fried rice. I also shared some Edamame with someone in my party. It seemed like a lot of menu items could be made gf. They didn’t offer me tamari and the fried rice was made without soy sauce/tamari so was pretty bland. I added some salt and duck sauce which helped. The Bee Bong was good but also seemed to be missing sauce, it just wasn’t very flavorful/seemed underseasoned. The veggies were good and the spring roll was good.

The waiter assured me that things were made gluten free but it was a little confusing, it was hard to tell if he really understood what I was asking about needing to avoid cross contamination. At one point he did doublecheck with me to make sure the noodles would be gf and substituted regular rice noodles.

The food was healthy and fresh, there was a lot of variety on the menu, and the atmosphere was nice but I didn’t feel great about being accommodated as a celiac. I don’t get symptoms so won’t know if there was any cross contamination. I saw previous reviewers had better experiences so hopefully was a fluke.
