Well, this place is impressive! My previous experiences with Vietnamese restaurants fell into two categories. The first I didn't much care for - think take-out Chinese with vermicelli substituted for fried rice, fish sauce for soy sauce. Second just floored me. A fried egg over broken rice and a piece of pork quiche for brunch? Minimalism beats maximalism in my book 2-1. But I didn't think of Vietnamese as haute-cuisine. Maybe at a 'fusion' restaurant, but not on Washington Ave... Well... The service was just super. We had a large hungry party and no reservations. The staff treated it like that type of stuff happens each and every day. Our waiter knew the menu inside and out. The timing of the courses was spot on. The presentation of the food is stunning. Clearly the kitchen puts some effort into the presentation and arrangement of the plate. Friends of mine who took multiple IPhone shots of their dishes grudgingly dug into their meals. Up until the first bite. The food sets the bar for what Vietnamese food is capable of. I had the lotus, pork & shrimp salad, which was so refreshing and so summer, I washed it down with salted lime soda. Just to, balance the palate, I guess. And the food is unbelievably cheap - I wouldn't hold it against management to raise prices up a few bucks. My only grudge is that it took the entire staff forever to divvy up the check. I'm not often in situations where multiple credit cards are used to pay a bill, and I think it's kind of a pain in general, but, when I am, l certainly don't want to wait at a table and kindly decline refills of water for a long time. Hopefully it was the working out of some end-run kinks. But, regardless, definitely a front-runner.

After getting turned down at Slide (YEAH I'm talking about that fool at the door known as "Le Douche"), my friends and I wandered our way into Nob Hill. I don't know what I was expecting because I was expecting to slide down a slide! I'm still pretty bitter about that. Hit him with his clipboard next time you see him! But I'm glad I found my way into Vertigo! The music there is an awesome and the people are super chill...two things that never happen down in my hood (San Diego). I'm not much of a bar gal but this place completely made me feel at home. It didn't hurt either that there was no cover charge. My friends and I just walked on in, snagged our drinks with ease, and danced the floor up and down. I have to say the mix of people there are on a large scale of random. Some girl bit my little titty (straight up, girrrrr, why'd you do that?!) and there were old tourist folks with fake mustaches on lol. I don't know. You could strike up a conversation with whoever and no one was super uptight! You had to be there. Hands down, if you're in good company, that place is bomb. I would go there again!
