Absolutely amazing restaurant. I don't get how people rank this place with anything other than 5. As of the beginning of May 2023, the rank is 4.7, but it should definitely be a round 5.0! The food was amazing, and the service was superb. If you have an option, ask for Noel as your waitress; she managed to elevate the experience to levels that are hard to describe with words and turned the meal into a pure pleasure. My wife and I had a nice romantic dinner at Bida Manda. I recommend the Crispy Rice Lettuce Wrap and the Pad Thai, but I have a feeling that no matter what, you can not go wrong. All in all, I highly recommend visiting this restaurant. Parking: Street parking during the week is free after 6PM
If I was on death row, there’s a good chance I’d have the lettuce wraps and pork belly noodle bowl as my last meal. Erynn the bartender was the perfect mix of attentive and gregarious. Coffee Old Fashioned and Dill with It are A+ cocktails too! … More
Trendy, yet very tasty. A great time! Our server was a absolute delight. Definitely order the crispy rice lettuce wrap appetizer and the papaya salad. These were the highlights of the meal! Really excellent flavors and variety of textures. The crispy pork belly soup is a good value (very filling) and pretty tasty, but not as much of a stand-out item. The saffron crepe was unique, but not as good as I thought it would be. The salmon was very nicely cooked, however nothing special.
