Reviews
- lanky_green_beanFinally got a weekend off from work, so my friend and I came here to try the iron pot stew and just chill out. The corn flatbreads baked on the side were so good — sweet and toasty, and dipping them in the fish sauce was honestly amazing. The iron pot goose was super tender and flavorful, fell right off the bone, didn't have to fight with it at all. The staff were really warm and attentive, even took the time to walk us through the dishes which was a nice touch. Whole vibe was super cozy, kinda felt like eating at home honestly. And those fresh corn pancakes on the side just made the whole meal feel so satisfying. Definitely coming back.
