LSXO

This place small so important to get reservation. We got resy but they were short staffed that night so they gave us complimentary drinks for the extra wait time which we appreciate. This place does viet Asian fusion well. I went to Asian fusion that have butcher the Asian taste. I felt that they really took Vietnamese food and elevated in a different way. It was similar to all the dishes I'm use to but something extra Elevate it. One of my favorite was their banh mi it was so filling and stuff with so much protein. I loved them nem nuong, ca kho to, and banh mi. Love that each dish came with vegetables to make it balanced. I would def come back again

I love little sisters, which is owned by the same people and the pork chop here was outstanding! The space was very small and I sat at the bar. The bar was terribly designed. The seats are bar or counter height and should be seat height. I'm not tall and I was extremely uncomfortable that I ended up asking for my food to go. It was unfortunate. The bartending was super nice and attentive and appreciated him understanding the need to do to-go. Hopefully they get new seats so they can have a few more ppl comfortably sit there. Still would recommend to go and try this place for typically seating.

First... you need to make a reservation. They fill up really quickly and I was able to get a spot for 4 people a month out! The drinks are awesome, and they do have craft bartenders who will make something for you if you ask. The food is outstanding, a great fusion and the music is on point too. The bathroom was spotless.To find this, go to restaurant and ask the hostess, a they will guide you to the secret door. And be prepared, like all things now, this place is not cheap. Dinner for 2 and some drinks could run you around $150-200 but is worth it

Finally was able to get in and try this hidden gem in Huntington Beach located in Pacific City in the Blue Gold Restaurant. I was able to make rsvp through open table, pretty easily but make sure to do that a couple of weeks in advance.There is a time limit for about 90 minutes, due to how small the restaurant is. It's really catered to great service and a modern twist on Vietnamese dishes. Loved the shaken beef, beef roll and garlic noodles. So much variety to choose from.The cocktails were unique, delicious and a good size. Ambience was stunning and a perfect little spot for drinks, small bites or dinner. If you love Vietnamese food, this is a must try!

This place was amazing! Real cute speakeasy with ocean views. They played really good 90-00's music Drinks: I would definitely recommend the hanzo ( whiskey ) , butterfly effect ( vodka) Service: was amazing! Our server was alsoThe bar tender and she was amazing. The staff there is very nice and accommodating. Food: everything is mostly family style soIt's shareable. We had the dumplings, prawns, shakes ( or shaven) beef, seabass, and the vermicelli dish. All great choices and enough to feed 3 people happily! Make sure to book a reservation in advance

LSXO is a Vietnamese restaurant inside of BlueGold restaurant on the second floor. They have an extensive menu with traditional Viet items with a twist. Food took a while to come out though. We went here for a birthday. I saw that they did birthday desserts in the past, but the waiter said they don't do that when we asked. Maybe because we went during lunch? * Shaky Shaky Beef 3.5/5 - This was the most recommended dish, but it was just okay. The beef texture was good and tender. However, the sauce was salty and Americanized. Not what you'd expect from shaken beef. The rice on the side was very good, savory, sweet, and citrusy. * Chicken & Shiitake Dumplings 5/5 - Juicy dumplings with a blend of unique flavors. They were perfectly paired with the chili sauce. The crunchy oyster mushrooms on the side were also interesting.* Red & Black Rice with Seafood 4/5 - Tasted good though very similar to a paella seafood dish on top. The spicy, gingery red and black rice underneath made the dish more special. It came with a lot of food so definitely shareable for two.* Vietnamese Coffee Tart 5/5 - This was a delicious way to end the meal. It came with a chocolate brownie base with coffee filling. There was chocolate mousse on top and condensed milk at the bottom. On the other side was vanilla ice cream and chocolate crumbles to balance out the taste.

I had high hopes for this place with the good reviews and nice photos but unfortunately was very disappointed with my experience here. This place is pretty hard to find since it's located in the back of Bluegold which is next to Equinox on the 2nd floor of the plaza. The venue itself is super tiny with few tables and few bar seating so all we could get were bar seats upon walk in. The bar seats were also super short and uncomfortable so the table was down at where our knees were so I was worried I would spill and drop food and drinks all over the place. We decided to order the garlic noodles and shaky shaky beef. The type of noodle they used for the garlic noodle was too thin and the flavor was off so I really didn't enjoy this dish much. The shaky shaky beef was tender and the sauce was good. Definitely a bit Americanized but that's as expected. For dessert, we got the banana mousse and the texture of this was just oddly jello-like and was not good at all. Overall was very disappointed by both the food and drinks here.

Vibe: perfection, music choices solid. It's like eating dinner in an early 2000's late 90's club with all the best hits.Service: Ashley and Anthony are great.Negative- took friends twice for birthday celebrations, both listed on the reservation and relayed to the host and servers. No acknowledgment, yet both times other tables were treated with a birthday dessert and celebration from the staff. When paying $300+ both times and bringing more people, least I could Hope forFood: imperial rolls are a mustsalmon Crudo was great, too much cilantro for garnish, sauce was a bit overkill, but still enjoyableLemongrass Chicken: crispy and flavorfulShaky Shaky Beef: better than I expected, not a huge beef person but the rice was amazing, beef was cooked perfectly and the salad added a nice refreshing touchCrispy Rice: wasn't my favoriteDrinks: The Jade pendant is a must! Butterfly effect has a beautiful presentation and just as deliciousLove me some lsxo! Try to get a reservation during sunset it's a must see view! Later reservations are great, parking is easy and you really get to enjoy your time with whomever you bring

This was on my bucket list for years. I finally came here with my girlfriends for my 50th birthday and it was everything I wanted it to be. The views are breathtaking. The restaurant is gorgeous! The food perfect.

PHENOMENAL food! Had an rsvp and were seated a bit later due to a large party ahead of us, but we were able to grab some drinks at Bluegold's bar while waiting! Food was amazing! Need to keep an open mind since this is a fusion spot - not your authentic neighborhood pho spot. We ordered the escargot, salmon crudo, Vietnamese crepe, and garlic noodles. We also got a couple of cocktails. Those were great as well! Would definitely come back here and bring some friends. Seems like a fun place to rent out for a special event. 10/10 service!
