"If you’ve ever fantasized about eating snails while sitting on a tiny stool in an alleyway somewhere in Vietnam, this place will make you giddy. On almost any night, you’ll see groups sitting at low tables in front of this restaurant sharing plates of food. If your bones can’t deal with sitting so low to the ground, there are taller tables inside. The menu has pictures to help, but if you’re not familiar with Vietnamese food, lean on your server for suggestions. They will happily suggest all kinds of wonderful dishes, like snails that range in size from little periwinkle-like things to ones that could house Sebastian the crab and three of his closest friends. We really love the green mango and cone snail salad, which has a nice heat, an assertive amount of lime, and a generous amount of de-shelled meat. " - carlos c olaechea
