First time there for lunch and the first time I have had the style of food. Holy shite it was delicious. The wife and I split the summer rolls, ban mi bits and blugolgi nachos. I had a corona and she had a glass of wine all for $37. I am going to make this a lunch spot.

You can use the GPS on your boat. Like all your other waypoints, you won’t be leaving with any fish.

While they don't have quite as many selections on the menu (Bahn Mi especially) Saigon Noodles is cheaper and offers the traditional Viet food. It's her (Tam Nguyen's) restaurant she opened before Basil. They are both great but I still love Saigon Noodles.

Like Ad said the short ribs are fantastic along with all the pho and Hu Tieu bowls, well didn’t try the tofu one but shite I’m sure that its better than most

It’s very good.

Pot stickers were good.

The bacon sand which app is fire.

Gotten their shrimp curry as well.

My daughter got their grilled chicken and I know it’s weird to say, but there grilled chicken is the best I’ve ever had. Weird for a Vietnamese place to take that title, but it’s super good.

Yes without question, pad Thai Tuesday ftw


Also I don’t see how they’ll continue to stay open unfortunately, literally no one in there every time I go.

Check out Zen before he closes in a month. His hot pot is infinitely better than Blu Basil.
