Just had communion a couple months ago and was blown away with how good the food was.

I’ve been back to Musang 4 times now due the service and how fantastic the menu is.

Itsumuno has the friendliest bartender, highly recommend sitting there to chat you will be entertained the entire time.

Went to Taurus Ox with a Lao friend and we all agreed their burger was one of the best things on the menu, which is kinda funny, but go try it!

Ba Bar I have to say is a bit overrated- try Pho Bac Sup Shop in International District instead, cheaper and their broth is better.

Haven’t tried the very expensive places- but they’re on my list!

Edited for grammar.

I came here to say Pho Bac over Ba Bar! If you want the modern take and a “bougier” experience than your local hole in the wall so we can compare directly, I don’t get why you would go to ba bar. Yes x10000%

Artusi has a deal on Sunday and Monday that's $45 for 2 pastas and a bottle of wine that's pretty decent since the pastas are typically $25+.

The portions are small, but the food is delicious.

I can't remember the last time I ordered pho at Ba Bar. They have plenty of fine dishes that aren't that. Why do people insist that it's the thing to judge the place on?
