*Fried Spring Rolls

ELIZABETH STREET CAFE:

Elizabeth Street Cafe is a place which hosts one of the coolest patios in the city, and a cozy space in the winter.  It doesn’t matter if you come here for lunch, brunch or dinner, every single dish is enjoyable.  It’s hard to recommend a favorite, but I truly can’t go without ordering the Poached Shrimp & Avocado Spring Roll and one of the Vermicilli Rice Bowls aka “Buns” with a soft boiled egg, fried spring roll and avocado.  The Pho Gha with Chicken & Lemongrass is a pure delight in the winter. And if you want a splurge…try the fried spring rolls…and roll them up in lettuce and mint for the authentic Vietnamese meal.  Oh!  And definitely don’t miss their macarons.  They are some of the best in the city!

TIP: Lunch & Dinner daily. Brunch Sat & Sun. Weekday Happy Hour. Dining room now open. Curbside Pickup Available. Reservations via Open Table.
