Disappointing experience for the price. The price point for the entrées are $20-$28 but the value of the amount of food (and flavors) that were given is more like $15-$18. For example, I ordered the hot & spicy chicken which came with a one bowl of rice and about a medium size bowl of topping. the spring rolls for $6 was only two very thin fried eggrolls. Also there’s an additional convenience fee of 4% because I used my debit card. The food flavors are average at best. Quantity is low for what you had to pay for it. Vietnamese flavors are missing fish sauce and more developed spicy flavors. The atmosphere is clean. The service is OK not talkative. not super friendly yet responsive. No one needed to come fill water so after bringing the food there really wasn’t much attention on our table of six. they were able to give us individual checks which we appreciated. It’s a white tablecloth dining experience so you’re expecting a little bit of a higher class the food, service and overall dining experience which is not prevalent the evening we came. Parking is going to be on the street or around the corner of the parking lot however I don’t think it’d be too difficult in downtown Moline unless there’s a big conference going on. I’d rather have pizza at Tony’s down the road. Note my rating system: 1 Star: I wouldn't recommend 2 Stars: Didn't hit my standards 3 Stars: Average (nothing special) 4 Stars: Above Average. Would recommend. Still looking for the 5 Star. 5 Stars: Top of their game. Great food. Great service. Would recommend and plan on returning.

I came here on a friend's recommendation with 2 other friends. The food was wonderful! I had ginger curry with chicken. They have an amazing assortment of tea so you're not just stuck with green tea and you get a whole pot as well. Tony is fantastic and kind. I will be back!

My family had never been before. We asked for recommendations and the waiter gave us many different ones. My boys kept going on about how great the food was. Great food and by far even greater service. I will recommend this place over and over. We will be back.
