We had lunch here. This was our first time and we were quietly surprised. The food was very good. Very modern take on Vietnamese food. We recommend the open spring rolls we had the pork it was full of flavour and delicious. The chicken and the eggplant were very good. Our only negative was that that the restaurant was very cold. It was cold outside but there was no relief inside, a small negative. Overall we recommend and we will return. Thanks

Coal is not the stand out "wow that was incredible" experience since ownership changed hands, but you will get a good, tasty meal. Staff service is still as good as ever, happy to say.
