Review content:
A friend introduced me to cyclo over a year ago, and I have been numerous times. To start off with, the food is delicious. For starters, the spring rolls and crepes are delicious and so fresh! The green beans are also utterly amazing and a must have with any meal. In fact, I would come here just for the green beans! Now I can't pass up a good pad thai, so I can't seem to order anything else... however, I have tried numerous other entrees that other people have ordered, and you can't seem to go wrong. Finally, save room for the desert because the jasmine creme brulee is spectacular... light and sweet and delicious! \r

Now that the food discussion is finished, I must also comment that the ambience is perfect, all thanks to the sassy Justina. She never ceases to liven up the dinner. And, as a young professional struggling not to conform to the super-conservative, male dominated professional arena, it is refreshing to see a hip, but classy, well-dressed lady taking your order in stylish pumps (most professional women wear pumps to work, right?!). \r

I am a woman and have eaten at cyclo with parties of numerous sizes, with individuals of both sexes and different ethnicities, and have never witnesed any discrimination or questionable behavior. Granted, the staff may not go out of their way to be nice to grumpy, rude, or clearly pretentious/judgmental patrons, but what server would?
Pros: everything
Cons: kinda far from where I live, but I'll make the trek regardless
