Saigon 48: This Vietnamese restaurant’s tiny bar is really the starting point for dinner at the fluorescently illuminated restaurant. The extensive menu offers numerous savory options, including the super-fresh summer rolls. A mango and shrimp dish complements the series of clever tropical drinks such as the Coconut Kiss, Lychee Martini, or the Blue Hawaiian. The streamlined, contemporary design of furniture styles and lines lends a peaceful air within, while outside is the conflagration of congested Midtown. Service is friendly and prompt, and after an hour of voracious eating, Saigon is so good that all draining work thoughts will be vanquished and replaced with dreams of a South Asian vacation. |
