Crema's Take

This cozy Raleigh spot serves up authentic Vietnamese cuisine with genuine warmth, and their salted Vietnamese coffee is a must-try while you linger over perfectly crafted phở or crispy banh mi. The family-friendly atmosphere and attentive staff make it ideal for catching up with friends over beautifully steamed bao buns and expertly balanced dishes like coconut curry rice noodles. Whether you're after traditional Vietnamese flavors or their creative specialty drinks, you'll find the kind of place that feels like a genuine discovery rather than just another dining option.

Very authentic Vietnamese food, salted Vietnamese coffee is also worth trying. Pho's broth is savory. Food is served in a very good timely fashion.

The phở tái was very good, probably among the best I’ve had in the Triangle. The portion was very nice including a good amount of noodles and meat, not just broth. The only thing is that the beef could have been sliced just a bit thinner but it was still very good. Will definitely be back to try more on the menu. The interior was very nice and decorated cutely. We went during lunch, but I could see it being a nice spot for a dinner date as well. There’s bar seating as well as table seats. There’s also an upstairs with more seating.

Dinner was so good. The Bao Buns - especially the Pork Belly ones - were very good. But the BEST was my grilled pork Bahn Mi. So good. The bread was crispy. The meat was juicy and flavorful. The marinated veggies were tangy good. And the jalapeños were fresh. The service was very good and the chef prepared everything perfectly. Highly recommend dining here.

Went for an early dinner with family and it was wonderful! The cocktails were delicious and the bao buns were steamed perfectly. The wait staff as well as the chefs checked on us multiple times which made it feel very homey. Will definitely go back.

My guest and I shared the Tofu Bao Buns. They were very tasty and pleasantly displayed. I had the Coconut Curry Rice Noodle dish served with Tofu. It was extremely flavorful and creamy. I highly recommend this dish. My guest had a chicken dish similiar to the Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio, but I do not see it listed right now on the menu. However, when we went, they were still in their soft opening. She noted that the chicken was a bit chewy - maybe too much dark meat for her liking. We had wine and a cocktail. Both were wonderful. The decor is really nice, but the lighting in my opinion is too bright and not "soft" lighting. We sat in the corner where the ambiance was a bit dimmer. We will return.
