I came here for dinner with friends on a Monday evening. The place was quite empty. We ordered a mango salad, shrimp paste on sugarcane, chicken wings, fried dough & the mixed brochettes. Food was very good though I was a bit disappointed with the fried dough. For dessert, we had the fried banana & mango « panna cotta ». They were delicious. The waiter was super friendly. Even though the place was empty, I loved the decor. I'm sure the ambiance must be better on the weekend.

123 Dzo Vietnamese Restaurant is a fun spot for a lively night out-great energy, neon-lit vibe, & a menu that leans a bit modern while still tasting true to Vietnamese flavors. The seafood dishes were the highlight: fresh, well-seasoned, & nicely balanced with citrus, herbs, & a little heat. We also loved the bo luc lac (tender meat, smoky wok flavor, generous veggies) & the da ga chien gion with a creamy dipping sauce. Drinks were a good time too-perfect place to come with friends & share plates. Service was friendly & quick, & everything came out hot & beautifully presented. Would definitely come back.
