This bistro in a strip shopping center just north of Plaza Fiesta on Buford Highway serves Vietnamese and Chinese dishes from an extensive menu, all in a cozy, upscale atmosphere.
I was impressed with the service by very friendly staff members. The food was delicious and fresh. My wife and I had the sampler platter which has you roll up your own rice paper rolls of mixed foods, including shrimp, lemon grass beef, pork wrapped along with greens and vegetables. It was delicious. I would highly recommend the restaurant, especially for the value received.

The restaurant is ambitious; owner/manager Jimmy Tran is a 2001 graduate of Emory’s business school and gets much of his inspiration from his parents, who are both from Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon). Tran is young -- not yet 30 -- and has high hopes for pairing wines and beers with the delicate regional specialties that make up so much of what’s good about eating here. But the thing that makes this restaurant stand out from any other Vietnamese spot in the area is the banh trang cuon. Order the “grilled sampler”: Rice papers, a shallow bowl of water and an assortment of grilled meats of marinated pork, minced shrimp grilled around a baton of sugar cane (called chao tom) and la lot -- minced beef flavored brightly with lemon grass, then wrapped in pungent betel leaves will all be brought on platters to the table.
