"Pasteur is a Vietnamese restaurant on Baxter Street that’s right next to Nha Trang One and Thai Son (two other Vietnamese restaurants we love, and also happen to be on this guide.) Pasteur’s parking lane has a covered outdoor area with about four tables, a beautiful wooden banquette, and houseplants galore." - hannah albertine

"The brisket banh mi there is unique in my experience — a lush thing of beauty." - Robert Sietsema
