I have eaten at the restaurant twice, and both times I had a wonderful culinary experience. There is nothing special about the building itself in fact the restaurant is a bit dark, drab, and dreary. And it is in a fairly rough part of Durham. But the food makes it all worth it. The green papaya salad is wonderfully tasty. The Pho is as good as any I have had at other Vietnamese restaurants. The sprouts, basil, peppers, etc. are fresh. The staff is friendly and accomodating.
