Their bun with charbroiled beef and shrimp is amazing, as are the roll your own spring rolls, though if you decide to go with the latter, I recommend you roll your rolls first before you eat rather than roll as you go, because the rice wrap paper can try ”

Their spring rolls are mostly fresh lettuce, herbs, carrots, rather than rice sticks like some of the places I've had in the valley and downtown. ”
