Gorgeous decor but lackluster food offerings, mirroring most of Pike & Rose.
I tried some egg rolls and spring rolls from the Anh-mazing Vietnamese Kitchen, and they were just ok. The egg rolls just tasted "fried", there was no other distinct flavor than the oil. The spring rolls with tofu were better, but still not very memorable. If this is an indicator of the rest of the food at this spot, it's not encouraging.
I also grabbed a couple of rolls from Oma Sushi. The California roll looked like someone ran and grabbed it from Safeway, it was terrible. The Volcano roll (baked roll with spicy tuna, salmon,
topped with spicy mayo sauce, eel
sauce, sriracha sauce) was decent in comparison.
I think I chose the wrong restaurants, the food from the Asian fusion BBQ Chicken spot looked better in hindsight. Maybe worth another try.
Loved the seating options and all the floral decorations, great design.
