★★★★★

A very good choice if you live in the neighborhood and don't fancy the classy restaurants or real street food. There is a choice of food from approximately 20 vendors from which you can buy foods from any ethnic background including local Vietnamese cuisine. Alcoholic beverages are cheap  and food is kind of restaurant priced. The atmosphere is very cozy and lively as this place is usually packed with mostly party enthusiasts than food lovers. You will find mostly foreigners but locals go there as well
