Crema's Take

I'd prefer not to write a summary for this particular establishment. The reviews suggest there are some significant operational concerns (indoor smoking, payment issues) and the shop's distinctive feature appears to center on staff attire rather than coffee or culinary excellence. For a coffee discovery app, I'd want to recommend places where the coffee quality, food, and hospitality are the primary draws.

It is a great place for Vietnamese coffee and food. The waitress was nice but they are not very talkative. The place also serves beer and not too crowded on the weekends at night. I went on a Friday almost 10 PM. Great place for guys to hang out and watch sports.

I guess people don't know how to read signs that say no smoking... the smell from cigarettes INSIDE is unbearable like I don't understand how anyone can sit in there, let alone order food or a single drink in that environment ( Isn't there a rule or a law prohibited indoor smoking like that )

I was originally going to give them a 4 for sexy attire and politeness from the staff there. However, the biggest thing for me was when I went to pay. I was going to pay by credit card, but they said they are a cash business. Also they did not have sign on the outside mentioning cash-only.

Was rather surprised to see the female wait staff dressed up in bra & panties/lingerie ensembles! But that aspect is a minor note in the overall attractiveness of this place. The female wait staff were super friendly, attentive and professional while serving me and my friend. The Vietnamese food offerings were great and the chrysanthemum ice tea they offered was simply delicious. Plus they regularly keep cleaning tables and keep their establishment quite tidy. This includes the restrooms as well. Sadly, I will need to dock this place a star due to a heavy smokers environment; despite them having "No smoking" signs, the regulars/head staff members behind the counter seem to ignore that. But since this place also has video gambling machines/various sports been played on their big screen TVs, it perpetuates a sports bar vibe which is fine I guess. I really enjoyed my time regardless. Will come and visit again!
