La Vie Vietnamese Restaurant

Exquisite meals, Affordable prices, Friendly staff
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

05/10/2008 Posted by randomizeme23

I've lived in San Francisco's Richmond district for several years, and La Vie is by far one of my favorite restaurants in the area. Home to an array of Vietnamese/French fusion cuisines and a Hot & Sour soup that is simply to die for, La Vie produces high-class plates at prices that are affordable to the average restaurant-goer. Beyond this, the staff is always friendly and keep customers well attended to.<br/><br/> A few of my personal favorites:<br/> --Hot and Sour soup (available with catfish, prawns, or both)<br/> --Vegetarian Salad (has little crispy tofu strips, and the dressing is awe-inspiring to say the least)<br/> --Dungeoness Crab (large enough to feed several, with a good handful of recipes. I've tried them all and have never been let down.)<br/><br/> Highly recommended!

Pros: Excellent food, Affordable prices, Friendly Staff, Never too crowded

Cons: Makes my home cooking look like McDonalds
