Modern Vietnamese featuring pho, braised catfish & brunch
"This Vietnamese spot on Winslow is our (second) favorite place to sneak away for a day-off lunch on Bainbridge Island. While the menu is stacked with great phở and bánh mì, we would come here solely for their puffy salt and pepper tempura prawns with chili oil-slicked egg noodles, or order of truffled pork wontons and crackly taro-stuffed egg rolls. Enjoy it all in their dining room complete with mellow golden wood and a giant painting of a catfish, or out on their covered patio." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley

"The Nguyens first found acclaim at their Bainbridge Island restaurant Ba Sa, known for a creative, technique-driven approach to traditional Vietnamese cuisine; its menu includes a traditional-ish pho featuring 21-day dry-aged beef in an aged oxtail broth, while the rest of the offerings lean inventive with global influences and a focus on locally sourced ingredients." - Mark DeJoy
"On Bainbridge Island, Ba Sa — run by siblings Trinh and Thai Nguyen — combines traditional Vietnamese recipes with local ingredients and adds global twists, exemplified by a banh mi with karaage chicken, avocado spring rolls, and a pear and cheese panna cotta for dessert; it opened just months before the COVID pandemic." - Harry Cheadle
"I’m told this Bainbridge Vietnamese restaurant is pulling out all the stops for Tet: it will have a lion dance in front of its doors on Sunday, February 11, and is putting specials on the menu February 9–12 including banh tet (sticky rice stuffed with pork belly and mung bean wrapped in banana leaves), sweet banana layer cake, and thit kho mang (braised pork belly with bamboo shoots)." - Harry Cheadle
