The food is authentic! We ordered bun cha and pho, and both of them taste fresh and delicious. Staff is friendly too. We would definitely come back again!

I often get to have work breaks in Carlisle so ive been to a few different places for lunch and this place is by far the best I've tried. Great food, great value and great service. Looking forward to trying more from the menu

I bought an original bubble tea here and its very close taste to asian bubble tea. Will try next time their meal as they look healthy and delicious. Edited review: I tried the tofu rainbow roll and the regular lemon chicken with vermecelli and I must admit it is worth to try! Very authentic to vietnam meals! It reminds me my vietnam trip with my mom last 2014. Hoping for more to offer!

Annie did the vietnamese food catering for our wedding and I cannot tell you how wonderful she was throughout the whole process. She was responsive, adaptable, and did a wonderful job coordinating with our wedding venue at Springkell. The food was WONDERFUL and she really treated us like family. If you are looking for authentic viet food or an authentic, reliable caterer, then make sure to use these guys!

It was my first time eating here today and it did not disappoint! I had the BBQ Pork & Vermicelli dish and it was cooked to perfection, very tasty. The staff are so friendly and accommodating. Looking forward to visiting again to try their coffee and boba tea!

Forget the Loch Ness Monster, the real treasure of Carlisle is this Vietnamese street food! Seriously, this lady's cooking is so good, it's worth ditching your travel buddies for. If you find her, tell her a fellow foodie sent you!
