Longtime regulars lean into the duck and prawn pancake—a textural mashup wrapping a crisp mini bánh xèo inside a rice paper roll. Fried blue swimmer crab dumplings arrive packed with sweet meat, mushroom, and fresh herbs. Dilley, turmeric-slicked chả cá trout and beef la lot keep tables crowded, with dogs welcome outside beside the buzz. Grab a BYO bottle of Riesling and settle in over bowls of fragrant pho.
