The Scene – Dominated by a wall of glass overlooking the Bay Bridge, the clean-lined dining room is large enough to hold the ever-present crowds. A blue-green color scheme plays off the waterside location, and large tables made from cypress trees give a warm, cozy feel to the otherwise minimalist space. The sizable bar area has low-slung seating on one side and a sleek granite bar down the other. Knowledgeable servers guide diners through the menu. – – The Food – With his insistence on fresh, high-quality ingredients, Chef Charles Phan's Vietnamese-inspired menu…
Editor's Tips
- What to Drink:
- The bar menu is designed to complement the Asian flavors, and with juices squeezed to order, the cocktails are worth the $9 splurge. The "Summer in the Danube"--sparkling wine with a hint of elderflower essence--is refreshing.
- Know Before You Go:
- No reservation? No worries--spots on the waiting list are available by calling the hostess, beginning each night at 5:30pm.
- The Extras:
- Parties of eight or more are required to set a prix-fixe menu in advance--diners choose one of three pre-selected appetizers, entrees and desserts.

Did not hold our reservation even thoough we were present 12 minutes before our time. Seated others and seated others before us...we waited 35 minutes after our reservation for our table. Yikes...loud, crowded tables, small portions, good eating, but think other restaurants offer meals just as good for less and bigger protions. Sorry! But if being seen were other are being seen...this is the place for you.
- Pros: location
- Cons: small portions-expensive-crowded

Loved it. Not only the food, but the service was wonderful. Staff were at your table to clear plates after clean after every serving. The hot Vietnamese Coffee was wonderful. I've never had it brew at the table.
The place is beautifully decorated and I felt very relaxed and comfortable. Every seat, except those facing the bar, have a view of the bay. The walls in the seating area are walls of windows.
I can't wait for my next trip to SF. I love the city.
- Pros: Service and food
- Cons: None
