Vietopia

The Quick Breakdown
-A classy and tasty Vietnamese restaurant

The Atmosphere
-Wow. Walk in and you see a beautiful coral reef aquarium. A few more steps and you see the bar with a nice plasma TV. The mood is quiet and relaxing. Vietopia is tastefully decorated with paintings and other trinkets for vietnam. It's a nice place to take that special someone in your life.

The Food
-Cha Gio(Egg rolls).served with pickled veggies, fresh lettuce, cucumbers, and fish sauce.

-Canh Chua(Vietnamese hot and sour soup). Shrimp, bean sprouts, okra, tomatoes, pineapples, basil, red jalapenos stewed in chicken broth. I really enjoyed this although it was a little on the sweet side. We thought about another order but realized that there was alot of food still on the way.

-Ca Chien Chua Ngot(Saigon Sweet and Sour Crispy Fish) Lightly tempura battered fish over a bed of salad, tomatoes, cucumbers, topped with bell peppers, onions and sweet & sour sauce. The flavors and textures mixed together was heavenly. This is a must try here!!


-Com Bo Luc Lac( Rock and Roll Beef). Tender chunks of filet minon with scallions and garlic served with a vinaigrette salad and tomatoes. This came highly recommended from our waiter. The Bo luc lac was simply AWESOME. Another must try here!
Damage done to wallet
-Ca gio $4.95
-Canh chua $3.95
-Ca chien chua ngot $12.95
-Com Bo Luc Lac $9.95
Feeling in my belly afterwards
-Bliss.
