Stumbled onto this place while walking on the street - even though it was 5:30 pm on a Saturday night & I had no reservation I was welcomed in to sit at the back bar. What a delightful surprise - great food at a great price, great atmosphere, & truly nice crew (I met a new waiter - his first day on the job - the house manager, & the chef, all of whom briefly chatted with me.)
On waiter Brandon's recommendation, I ordered the Cahn Ga (chicken wings) appetizer & was instantly hooked - among the best I've ever had! Generously sized, three big wings with perfectly cooked, tender meat in a delicious crisp coating, subtly spiced with a bit of sauce & herbs. It was so good I ended up ordering a to-go order to bring home to my wife! At $8 per order this was an absolute deal.
Also at his suggestion I had the main course soup, Bun Rieu - a generously portioned & lovely bowl (see photo) that featured a tangy (but not spicy) red broth with herbs & vegetable garnish, lots of vermicelli-like soft rice noodles, satisfying slices of baked tofu, & featuring unusual (& tasty)'meatballs' of mixed ground pork & crab paste, which filled me up quite happily.

In talking to chef Galaxy (as he introduced himself) I learned that his goal was to bring reasonably priced Vietnamese'street food' to the public, being mindful of how difficult it is to present affordable & tasty food to the neighborhood in these times. I'd say he succeeded admirably!

The decor was vibrant & fun - colorful paper lanterns, a lovely & inviting entrance full of Vietnamese signs & memorabilia, & a cheery if deliberately low-key vibe. & pleasant, not-too-loud background music, a big plus.

As one of the customers leaving as I went it said, this place has great, authentic food. I'll be back. I'm no expert on Vietnamese street food, but I know what well-executed & delicious, good quality food at a good price can be. This place hits the mark.

Delicious food & cool street food vibe in the middle of Plaza St Hubert. Menu may be limited but any choice is delicious & abundant.
We ordered 2 appetizers : Bánh tôm (4 pcs of double shrimp on sweet potato matchsticks) & Canh Gà 👍👍👍 (suoer savory chicken wings). We were already stuffed !
For our main courses, we had : Th?t Rim M?m S? (braised pork, fried egg, & rice) &
Bò Né (sizzling lemongrass beef & homemade beef/pork paté, fried egg, & rice. To tip the scale, we finished with their
Cà phê s?a ?á (Vietnamese iced coffee).
A fantastic foodie adventure & definitely worth a visit ! Gotta return for their Banh Cuon & Bún Riêu soup !

What a gem of a place & the same goes for the people that make it so! Authentic, humble, cozy, welcoming. It's one of those places you walk into out of curiosity & end up forgetting where you are on the world map completely. & it's totally fine that you keep ordering food & drink just to have a reason to stay there because it's so affordable! I dare you to go try the chicken wings & not get a second or third serving of it with a nice cold Tsingtao.
I'll be back chef Galaxy. Zo!

Incredible place with incredible food! It's worth the visit. Everything is freshly handmade to order & I saw the craftmanship when I saw a sneak peak of the kitchen.
Staff is super friendly & they will take the time to answer your questions. I'll definitely come back :)

Everything was super delicious, but here are my top 3 recommendations :
- ailes de poulet/ chicken wings
- beignets de crevette & patate douce / shrimp & sweet potato fritters
- boeuf à la citronnelle & oeuf / lemongrass beef & egg
