Honest verdict on Banh Xeo — good but not exceptional

Banh Xeo here was solidly made — light and herbal without anything to complain about. star anise broth was present and handled reasonably. But something was missing from the depth that this dish should have.

fresh herbs added at the table are a defining characteristic. The a street banh mi counter atmosphere was pleasant enough. fresh sugarcane juice was available and a good suggestion. For a reliable version of Banh Xeo this works. For an exceptional one, I'd keep looking. Three stars.
