I wanted to like the food more with its awards, but I thought the food overall was generally under seasoned. I got the seafood tasting menu, and the second course (poke with Indian flavors) and the main (Vietnamese/Cajun fried trout) were imaginative, but just bland, lacking in salt and spices. It's odd as these dishes are inspired from some of the most flavor-rich cuisines of the world. Otherwise, I enjoyed the first and third courses alongside the dessert. The cod was fried masterfully. However, missing the mark on two of the five courses seem a bit high, especially given the price. We got the sake pairing. It's a fun way to taste a variety of sakes, but I didn't find it too necessary to enjoy the tasting menu. Our service was fast and prompt, with the wait staff being very accommodating.

Hands down one of the best restaurants in Santa Fe. Had a lovely dinner and the food was amazing, the staff was kind, and it’s just always a joy to eat there. Every dish and drink they make is crafted with such care. I have had a few variations of the tasting menu and they always knock it out of the park

This place is amazing. We did the sample menu with the sake pairing and it was fantastic. The food is fantastic, better than the Asian fusion restaurants in San Francisco. You should not miss this place when you are in Santa Fe. The chef, Erica is awesome as is her menu.

I looked at the menu and thought, hmph…not impressed. But we ordered anyway and boy were we thoroughly impressed! The food was phenomenal. Chef should consider hiring someone to rewrite the menu descriptions because most things did not sound all that alluring to try. But what a flavor explosion every bite was and the cocktails were equally amazing. We wanted to try so many of those! Highly recommend this gem just off the square.

There is only one word for this place, WONDERFUL!! We ordered the 5-course tasting menu. ERIKA, the chef, is great! Server LILA, helped us with a smile all the time, and she share all her knowledge about sakes, everything was great from start to desserts.

This is a must visit restaurant! It’s rare to find Vietnamese food of this calibre and inventiveness in the States. Incredible use of flavours and presentation is beautiful. The chef has really created something wonderful with this restaurant.

One of the best restaurants in the Santa Fe Central area. Food is awesome, service is very good. We went with the Prix fixe menu and it was fulfilling.
