Thanks to my lovely friends, Jasmine Garden has become my dining room away from home on the weekends. Conveniently located for me around all my favorite people and places (Castro), I do feel most like I'm at home when I'm dining here.
I've become a regular weekend customer and with a little encouragement from Kelly, I've been trying out a few dishes outside of my regular favorite (BBQ PORK - Buun Cha Gio Thit...YUM). I've found a new dinner dish that I LOVE and it is the Grilled Rack of Lamb - Cuu Nuong). I've also tried the Dancing Beef - Bo Luc Lac and the Garlic Noodles - Mi Toi. If you like fish, you should try the Salt and Pepper Sea Bass. For appetizers, my favorites are the calimari, the Imperial Rolls and the BEEF CARPACCIO (very fresh and well spiced). On Saturday, I tried the Hue Noodle Soup...delish... Also, there is a chicken stock soup that they have here that IS TO DIE FOR.
I remember going on a Friday evening and there was quite a crowd. So, it may help to call ahead to see what the seating situation is like. If you go during LUNCH or early dinner, you may actually get to meet Kelly and you'll understand WHY I go there so often with my friends. She's the BEST!!!
Clean interior, friendly service, stellar food and VERY REASONABLE PRICEs! What MORE from a… Read more »
Hey All,
Went to Jasmine Garden recently and all I have to say is they have the best of all tastes in the Bay Area. First off on the menu! There aren't many places around that serve those many types of dishes and still have it tastes so good. Of course everyone has their own taste buds and a taste for different types of foods so reading the negative reviews didn't make me doubt the restaurant. I had to try it for myself and I suggest the same for everyone.
Second: When you return, I suggest you try different dishes. I definitely enjoyed the many different dishes that I have tasted for the past 6 times I have been there. Dancing Beef, Sea Bass, Garlic Noodles, Pho, Appetizers, etc... TRY IT ALL...
Be open minded.. Thats how I am with a lot of restaurants... =D
This Vietnamese restaurant with old, Chinatown-like sign that I've passed by hundreds of times was a nice surprise. Inside was modern decor, white plates, and those slippery silver chopsticks. It was way more quiet than I prefer when I eat Asian food, but there was random techno music playing in the background.
The sign on the front door advises to ask for a different menu if you want pho for dinner. This (lunch?) menu also had other Vietnamese noodle soups like bun rieu (tomato crab noodle soup) and bun bo hue (spicy beef noodle soup). Started with the banh xeo (savory crepe), which was crispy, not too greasy, and good. The pho and bun bo hue were ok for a restaurant not specializing in the dishes, but next time I'll prob try a rice dish. Decent Viet food and prices for the nicer decor.
I love narrowing down choices and letting someone else make a decision. It's the best of both worlds. I've already picked three things I like, so no matter what you pick is a *win* for both of us. I did this last night with my buddy Jason D. I gave him the following three options:
-Sushi Time
-Jasmine Garden
-Kasa
(Clearly I was in a south and east Asian mood upon my Yelp reading)
Due to the avalanche-like weather, we chose the Vietnamese place because a huge bowl of pho sounded amazing at the time. Although we were already at Church & Market, we had to cross 15 intersections to get to the part where Jasmine is located (directly across/in front of the 37 bus stop). We walked in and grabbed a seat against the wall with the windows.
The decor is interesting. I hate using the word 'interesting' because, as my friend Peter likes to remind me, it means "less than expected." But yes, interesting suits Jasmine Garden. There's a random white cupboard-like thing that surrounds the top of the restaurant and it feels like it should have doors that open up... but it doesn't. They were playing some random new-age music but showing a video of these REALLY INTENSE female violinists. What I saw and what I heard was very clashy-clashy.
When it came to ordering, I wanted a vermicelli bowl. I *thought* I ordered one. It had lemongrass beef and the description said "noodles, beansprouts...." and everything else that normally comes with a V-bowl. Soon as I ordered, the server asked "do you want rice with that?"
Me: "Uhhh...no thanks" (wondering why this man wants to carb me up)
Server: "Um, are you sure?"
Me: "Yes"
Server: "You should probably get rice"
Me: (taking out the menu and pointing to what I wanted) Isn't this what I ordered?
Server: Yes... but I think you need rice
Me: Fine... I'll get some rice
Ten minutes go by and our food comes out. What do I have? A plate of beef and veggies and a side of rice. I SWEAR I ordered a V-bowl. I mean, I even pointed at it. So how did I end up with this? And why am I giving this place 3 stars? Because the food was pretty good. Sure I had my heart and freezing limbs set on one thing, but you can't help an honest mistake (on their part... I refuse to accept blame... it's a Taurus thing).
The moral of the story? If you're in the mood for pho, but secretly want something else, come here and order the pho and enjoy whatever you get.
The food was great but oh. my. god. The service was horrible. At least 30 minutes passed between the time we got our appetizers to when we got the first of our three entrees.
Meanwhile other people who sat down 30 minutes after us got their food before we did and other tables that were seated when we walked in waited even longer than we did for their pho. Hello, pho takes 5 minutes to make. That's unacceptable.
I'll come back. But I'll only give it one more shot. The food is more authentic than Zadin (not better, just more authentic) but the service was enough to make me want to storm out.
Rice was dry, shrimp was overcooked, clay pot catfish tasted muddy. Service was awfully slow. It was my worst dining experience. I am so surprised this place got four stars! Wait staff did not seem to care.
After an unsuccessful phone call to a nearby Vietnamese restaurant for delivery, I tried Jasmine Garden instead.
Dancing beef, garlic noodle, and pho dac biet.
The dancing beef had me doing a twirl and a twirl in the middle of my living room. A generous portion of flavorful and tender beef is layered over a spring salad and topped with crispy noodle. With a side of garlic noodle, the dish is a meal in itself.
Everything was prepared for the pho dac biet. A takeout box of noodle, a bag of sprouts and basil, a little container of hoisin sauce, and a container of fragrant, spiced soup. No sriracha but luckily I have a bottle at home. All the ingredients were delivered separately and ready to be assembled into a satisfying bowl of pho.
I'm adding Jasmine Garden's takeout menu into my drawer!
This place is a fantastic little gem hidden on upper market. I am a pho whore, and I have to say Jasmine Garden's pho is quite tasty (but of course not as good as mom's or grandma's). Don't worry about the weird stuff being in there like tripe or tendon - the pho comes with the rare beef, brisket, and beef balls.
A must have that's not on the menu - the crunch rolls. Every time I go to a Vietnamese restaurant, it's a battle between whether to get the spring rolls or egg rolls, but the crunch roll solves all my problems. Imagine an egg roll stuffed within a spring roll with some grilled pork inside. AMAZING.
Don't bother with the Bun Bo Hue and Bun Rieu. The Bun Bo Hue is not spicy whatsoever and has an overwhelming flavor - lemongrass? The Bun Rieu also lacks flavor. The noodles were extremely soggy in both.
Jasmine has a great atmosphere, nice decor and attentive waiters. Their Garlic noodles are a must have. The papaya salad is a pass if you really like papayas or prawns, but other than that, their pho and other soup noodle dishes are pretty good.
This is a great place if you have large groups for lunch because of the spacious interior and modest prices.
First time trying this place, and now surprised by its 4 star ranking here. So I might give it another try in the future. But my buddy and I weren't terribly impressed.
We tried the papaya salad with prawns. The dressing was very good, but the prawns were pretty bland. Not sure they were fresh.
The other dish was 5 Spice Chicken, but as my friend stated, "More like 1 spice!" Fairly over cooked.
I'll try some Pho next time and see how that goes. The service was great though! Very cute buff waiter, yum!
Seems like the recent reviews indicating a fairly downhill trend might be accurate.
Went here Tuesday night. The BBQ Pork spring/imperial rolls were delicious, and innovative. The lamb curry was very good, except there were three fatty/boney pieces of lamb which I was not happy about.
This restaurant also seems to have a bit of an identity crisis...it's much nicer (and pricier) than Tu Lan or other hole-in-the-wall joints, but not quite on the level of some of the more upscale places...if they're going to use organic ingredients, they should be more upfront about it.
The presentations of the dishes are absolutely stunning, but they need to fix a few things to make the rest of the experience comparable to that.
I'm also hoping the tub of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter that I saw in the kitchen was just being used for storage and that it didn't actually contain any....
To preface, I'm obsessed with Bun. So when I judge a Vietnamese restaurant, I'm judging the Bun.
The Bun at Jasmine Garden is pretty damn good. It'd be better if the noodles were a little less sticky and not so clumped together and there were more fresh vegetables and mint leaves piled at the top, but I must say the BBQ pork makes up for it because it is outstanding. Tender, juicy, clean, and full of BBQ flavor, I could eat their pork every day. The crispy spring rolls are also delicious. The combination of crispy, doughy, meaty, and leafy textures together in one bowl is delightful.
The service is fast, but perhaps a bit too fast. Every time my friend paused from her Pho, one of the waiters tried to take her bowl away.
Jasmine Garden is definitely worth going to, but I'm still looking for the best place in the city to find the perfect Bun. Suggestions are welcome!
I was puzzled the past several times I've been here because they have a neon "Pho" sign in the window, but there is no pho anywhere on the menu! Turns out, it is on the lunch menu, which you can still request during dinner time if that is what you want. Good to know.
I ordered the Hue noodle soup (Bun Bo Hue), which is somewhat of a risk, but I hadn't had it in a really long time. Plus my past experiences here (with their sour soup and claypot catfish -- both extremely authentic) gave me more faith. But I really should've ordered something else. The Hue noodle soup here is basically just their pho in a different broth (that has way too much lemongrass in it btw). The noodles are the wrong type and it just has the regular pho meat, not the stuff that should be in bun bo hue. Alas.
I took 1 star away, but I will still come back to this place because the other food I've had here has been quite good. Should probably just stick to the pho next time I'm in the mood for noodle soup, which was what everybody around me was getting and looked pretty good. And if you haven't already, you really need to try their catfish claypot and sour soup.
Finally, a good Vietnamese place that serves more than just pho! Much prefer this place over… Read more »
Our favorite waiter comes over and I know he's expecting me to say "can I get #9 -- pho ga".
He was surprised when I deviated from my usual order and put in a request for a bun rieu.
Their bun rieu soup is made with shrimp, slices of deep fried tofu, bean sprouts and chunky tomatoes in a seafood based broth. It's slurpy goodness in a bowl, although it's a more oily version of Pho Garden's bun rieu. This spot is a more than an okay joint for pho in the 'Stro.
Steaming hot delicious pho dac biet (with beef flank, meatballs, rice noodles) for only $6.75. The… Read more »
One of the FRESHEST and BEST tasting vietnamese places I have been to. The staff are always friendly and more than willing to assist in any way they can. Prices are excellent for the amount of food served. Two people at lunch can easily share one entree and an appetizer such as the beef carpaccio (which is amazing here).
With all the Viet's restaurants in the bay area, this place suck!
Food tasted bland and artificial.
It is expensive as well.
Don't bother.
This place is just ok.. If I could, I would give it 2 1/2 stars..
I still need to try more dishes, but I've had the crispy noodles with seafood as well as the vegetarian noodle soup. If this restaurant was in any other city, I'd give it 1 or 2 more stars, but with all the superb choices for Vietnamese food in San Francisco, I just don't think you should waste your time on this one. I'd much rather go to Sunflower on 16th and Valencia than this place.. It has better food and it's cheaper than Jasmine Garden..
Oh, on more important thing:
Their F***ING metal chopsticks made me chip 3 teeth!! I guess that's my fault, but jesus.. why metal?! You can't even grab food as easily.. YARG!
I will never order from this place again out of sheer ANNOYANCE! I took me 7 mins and 2 personel changes to convey my street address... which is a major one in the mission. Eventually i just gave up when the didn't have what i wanted to order anyways. I have however eaten here in the past with out such problems. Prior to this last experience I would rate the food 3 stars. Its mediocre vietnamese food at its finest!
Jasmine Garden is a superb hole in the wall vietnamese restaurant focused on authentic vietnamese food with a mild bent towards chinese cooking styles.
Pho - For Jasmine Garden, this standard vietnamese dish is a walk in the park. For the diner, this is an excellent dish. The broth is complex and negotiates well between the salty, sweet, and lightness of a good broth. The noodles are a bit starchier than I was expecting, but not a big deal. The meat was excellent and the condiments were fresh. Really, the broth carried this plate.
Bun - The BBQ Pork bun is really where this restaurant shines. Traditional vietnamese executions emphasize the fish sauce heavily and as a chinese person, I find the result a little challenging on the nose. In Jasmine Gardens' rendition, the mix of the flavors very clearly have a chinese bent, which to me, optimizes for my palate. I'll take it.
Crunch Roll - This invention should definitely be tried. Jasmine Garden takes a spring roll and wraps that inside a freshroll. The inventors of the turducken were quite proud.
An important final point to make is how sweet Kelly (the owner) is. She really goes out of her way to make your dining experience excellent. She is passionate about her food.
At first this place let me down. I was so excited for Vietnamese by my house that I insisted we go here, a lot. the food was mediocre. But...lately it has been stellar. Went here on a double date about a month ago and the food was so good that we literally ate, everything. Like scraping the last bits off of the plate everything.
Then, I ordered this for delivery Sunday night...at like 5:30. Perhaps it was the early order, but my food arrived piping HOT and super duper good. I had the dancing beef (yum! worth the $14) and the 5 spice chicken, again YUM and the garlic noodles sans shrimp. This had been the recommendation when we ordered in the restaurant and they were goood goood good.
If you are a local, they will deliver, they did give me a bit of a run around at first when they didn't realize I was a stones throw away. Eventually we worked it out and they were there...fast! Anyway, highly recommended, but stick with the tried and true dishes (like the ones I am recommending) some of the other things we have had here have fell flat...
wow good reviews? I must have picked the wrong plates, anyways to start off the evening after I had lunch at this place I became extremely sick from indigestion and even vomited up a bunch of noodles etc... i'm pretty positive the food from this place did not sit well in my stomach.
But i'm gonna give it fair judgement and rate the food as it is -
Dish 1 - vermicelli noodle + pork + egg rolls = would have been pretty average in taste if not for the horrible choice of noodles. It (the noodles) was extremely hard. Price wise its pretty average
Dish 2 - Spring Rolls - first off 6.50 for these spring rolls? you got to be kiddin me. Secondly, the rice wrappers were super hard!!! They stuffed it with a bunch of bean sprouts... come on for 6.50 give us more shrimps or something.
Well that sums up my experience here, first and last of it.
The restaurant has a nice clean vibe, but the food is lacking "LOVE"... We ordered the spring rolls with shrimp, and peanut sauce, chicken Pho, and veggie Pho. The shrimp rolls were not the freshest tasting I've had, and the sauce was also lacking the smooth consistency I've had at other restaurants. The Pho broth on both were very salty. Too salty to finish. I really wanted to like this place... Asthetically the place is fine, the food, not so much...
My favorite local that hasn't disappointed yet.
The food is a strong four stars. Every dish that I have tasted there exceeded my expectations. And I cannot say enough about their Vietnamese beef carpaccio... the mix of the fried garlic and shallots against the mint, basil, and cilantro blend beautifully with the delicate slices of raw beef... getting hungry just writing about it. Other dishes that stand out for me are the dancing beef, imperial rolls and salmon curry. I am not a pho aficionado and haven't tried the pho menu so I can't judge that part of their lineup.
This place gets the extra star for its EXCELLENT VALUE (most entrees under $10) and its exceptionally friendly service.
While the ambiance is not quite suited to my taste Jasmine Garden more than makes up for it in other areas.
Give it a try.
Cheers
Maybe I am biased about this place given our mutual affinity for a certain flower, but I have to say that I had some of the best vegetarian pho I have ever tasted last night. Super tasty broth, fresh vegetables, and yummy fried tofu (amongst other bits of veggie goodness). Not only that, for $7, it is easily enough to feed me for at least two meals.
I would also feel remiss if I didn't point out the fact that the "lady of the house" is one of the sweetest, friendliest people I have ever come across. She's always very attentive and happy and once let me order delivery below the minimum because they weren't very busy at the time. She is obviously really invested in the restaurant and I love that!
So what have I had? There's the garlic noodles, which are delicious fresh and hot out of the kitchen, but not so great for delivery because they tend to get gooey and stick together if not super fresh. Then the lemongrass beef w/ Vermicelli noodles for lunch--freakin' phenomenal! Also can't leave out the lemongrass tofu dinner (no noodles in the dinner entree)...very, very good. And I love that for the veggie version of things, you can choose between tofu and fake chicken (or is it duck) and I think maybe one other thing? Oh, and they will not fry the tofu if you specify it, which I think I will next time I get the pho.
Damnit, now I am craving Vietnamese at 10 in the morning!
A hidden gem....I hope I don't regret writing a review for this place (for fear I will one day have to wait for a table).
I've been eating Pho all my life and this is now my go-to Pho place. I am a loyal PPQ fan since i've been a patron there for over 10 years but after trying Jasmin Garden....PPQ is now 2nd on my list. *gasp*
First of all Jasmin Garden is really clean. They have glass tops over their white table cloth and individual place settings. I don't even wipe down my utensils, plate, or cup (like i usually do at other asian restaraunts). The two times I've been here, i never had to wait. It's usually not busy which is the strange thing for being such a great restaraunt.
Jasmin Garden is not a noodle house or strictly Pho restaurant. They are a vietnamese restaraunt so most of their items are entrees that you can share family style. However, their lunch menu has a small section for noodle soup and this where my obsession with their beef pho began.
Service is excellent. The lady (owner? maitre d? hostess?) is really sweet. I see her mingling with other customers and really chatting them up, recommending good dishes. The customers seem to really like her. The waiter is swift and refills my water often. He is friendly but usually a man of few words.
The two times my husband I and have been here we were the only Asian patrons. Just something I noticed but it didn't bother us nor did we receive any lesser service.
Two dishes you must have: the beef Pho and Imperial Rolls. I cannot rave enough about both. They are absolutely delicious. I even drink the soup after I finish my noodles. A first for me since i'm paranoid about polluting my body with msg.
They also have garlic noodle. It's pretty good but you can really taste the butter. The five spice chicken is good but not amazing. They also have this spicy noodle soup that my husband tried but I still think the Pho is better.
Price is cheap/moderate. I think my pho was like $7 and the imperial rolls were $6.
Just come for the beef Pho and the imperial rolls. You won't regret it.
I was impressed by their presentation, excellent service, and affordable prices. I ordered a huge bowl of pho for $6.75, and my cousin ordered the bun which was equally a bargain. It's a twenty-second walk from the Church Street underground station (thirty if harassed by riffraff), but it was a little tricky finding it the first time (make sure you're on the side of 14th that's west of Church Street.
So my sister has been telling me about this place for a while, so i went today for lunch.
I had the garlic noodles with shrimp mmm mmm good!
calamari and double crunch roll... FABULOUS!
The hospitality is FANTASTIC... Thanks!
I've avoided this place for too long and finally checked it out the other day. From the outside it doesn't look like much and the area isn't the best, but as soon as you walk in the door you'll find a warm and comforting atmosphere.
The service is friendly and attentive. The woman who was there (and I believe is the owner) is so friendly she seems like a long lost friend!
The food was delicious. We started with fresh spring rolls and then moved on to three entrees for the two of us. It was all so good we couldn't stop eating and didn't have any leftovers to bring home.
I think we've found our new favorite Vietnamese restaurant in SF!
Decided to give this place another shot...feeling risky. And I was pleasantly surprised. I got the crunchy roll that someone had yelped about and it was delicious. An imperial roll wrapped in a fresh spring roll. Novel idea, and fun to try. I definitely recommend it
Was super stoked to try this place after reading all of the positive reviews. What a disappointment.… Read more »
I really like this place!
I've only had the delivery,
but I will definitely be going in to eat soon.
I think the, seafood in a hot iron plate,
just wouldn't be the same if I had it delivered? :)
The delivery is always VERY fast..maybe 20 minutes!
Favorite Dish: Vegetarian Pho!!! It's filled with veggies (carrots, baby bok choy, mushrooms) and it has fried tofu in it too. YUM!
Special Mention: Garlic Noodles & Crispy Calamari
We wandered in here one night when our nearby (and very beloved) Ike's was out of chicken. We had the pho. It was delish, the service was very friendly and the bathroom was uber clean. Aaaaaaaaand, they deliver. Holler at your Sunday hangover cure. Football & pho on your couch. Totes works.
I was very pleases with my experienced last night! The service, oh so friendly, ambiance, lovely... dinner was excellent, with a fake chicken eggplant thing, firm delicious rolls, and topped off with fried banana..
Did I mention the service was great? I even got a hug on my way out - i'll be back for seconds.
Super Yum! I ordered the beef pho and garlic noodles (carb fest) and it was delicious!
I went to pick up my order, and the lady that was helping me told me I could have my food delivered next time.. I told her I only worked two blocks away and she said Next time call! So you don't have to walk!!
umm..okay!
The exterior is not amazing, and the interior was not super fancy, but the food was amazing, and I couldn't eat my garlic noodles fast enough. I am super surprised they are not packed every minute of the day because of how good their food and service is.
When it comes to Vietnamese food I've been stuck in a rut,every time It's either Bahn mi or Pho. I felt like trying something different.
I called Jasmine Garden and asked them to bring me their best stuff up to their $20 delivery minimum. I didn't really understand what he was saying so I just said yes to everything. For $22 not including tip I got imperial rolls, beef pho, and a delicious pork dish. I'd order that pork all the time if I knew what it was called.
I am no expert on Vietnamese food and have no idea if this place is authentic but I can say that I really enjoyed their food.
I went to this place for the first time last week, and, wow - this is going straight into my short list of great neighborhood restaurant. What a find!
The food is very affordable, yet delicious. Staff was really nice. You absolutely HAVE to try the seabass, which is cooked in a way comparable to the one they serve at Yank Singh - amazing!!!!
This place is like a lost gem. Tons of people pass by Church and Market without even knowing it's there, but it's probably my favorite restaurant in the City.
First of all, the food there is amazingly good. The Bun Bo Hue is delicious and full of flavor, and what a beautiful color! It definitely has its own kick to it but the waitstaff there are more than willing to give you extra peppers if you so desire.
If you only want to give Pho a chance, I recommend that too. They let the meat cook from the heat of the broth right in front of you, which is exactly how Pho is supposed to be served. And the broth there is so amazing I can drink the whole thing! I like the Pho here even better than most of the places in Little Saigon. That's why this place is a gem!
For appetizers, I always get the Crunchy Roll. It's not on the menu, but the waitress suggested it to us one day. It's your traditional spring roll with nuoc mam sauce, but instead of shrimp they give you pork, and they also put little peanuts around the outside that stick to the rice paper. It is simply delicious, and the nuoc mam sauce is awesome.
Another thing about this place is that they serve everything in such an appetizing way. Like order the Crunchy Roll and they serve it to you in a martini glass with shredded carrots. And the water they serve you has lemon and mint leaves floating in the pitcher.
They have lots of other traditional meals that remind me of my mother's home cooking, Banh Xeo, Catfish cooked in a clay pot, Chinese sausages cooked in a clay pot (OMG So good!), and Sweet and Sour Soup with Pineapple and Catfish. heaven...drool...
So, if you're looking for Vietnamese, this is definitely the place to try. The door sticks, so don't think it's closed. I wonder if that's why the place is always so empty. How sad!
I was very skeptical of how authentic the food would be thinking maybe the reviewers just have a more americanized taste, but I was pleasantly surprised. And I should know, growing up in the south bay with homemade vietnamese food every night.
The carpaccio and garlic noodles are highly recommended. The shaken beef and spring rolls were good. The beef pho is decent -- not bad, just not the best.
It's always been delicious when I've eaten here, and they can adapt most of the menu as veggie. I like spicy, but some items are not marked hot on the menu, so be careful if it matters to you. We've had out-of-town guests who had never tried Vietnamese and really loved it here.
Got delivery on a Saturday night. Here are the pros and cons:
Pros -
- Good pho -- yummy bbq pork -- it would get 4 stars on its own
- Good papaya salad, but kind of small. We were fightin' over the last nibbles -- it would get 3 stars on its own.
Cons -
- ordered and paid for two portions of rice. Not in delivery bag. (zero stars)
- garlic noodles were some kind odd concoction of stuff you might be left with after making scrambled eggs and sauteing soggy noodles in the same pan, and then slathering on some 'buttery' flavored oil or margarine. had an odd synthetic taste along with the garlic. ick!!!! (zero stars)
- chicken in basil chicken was dry like left-over, re-microwaved chicken breast bits. Not much basil and the sauce was just average. (zero stars)
- they called my cell phone twice around 9:45pm to track down the information on the receipt that the driver had accidentally left with our order. (zero stars)
Bottom line... the leftovers are sitting in the fridge and will probably remain there, untouched, which is almost unheard of in this house. We won't order again -- next time we'll order from Red Jade. Always yummy.
Jasmine Garden is a hidden treasure! I used to be a die-hard Sunflower fan until I ate here.
Kelly greets you with a smile and a hug. One you are seated, you get treated to amazing appetizers and dishes. Tonight tried the rack of lamb and of was amazing as was the basil beef and BBQ Pork rolls
To top off an amazing meal, try the Vietnamese coffee and fried bananas with coconut ice cream with toasted coconut flakes!
Prices are reasonable, food and service are amazing. This is my new favorite restaurant!
