Tay-Ho was a perfect first stop for BARF-SUAVE--a solid example of the little jewels University Avenue has to offer. The interior was clean and bright, with green booths, tables, and chairs accented by light from three large, west-facing windows. When Christian and I entered, our hostess/waitress was delayed in the kitchen for a few seconds but practically ran to the front counter to greet us. It was a sign that this is a restaurant that aims to please.
Tay-Ho bills itself as having Vietnamese and Chinese cuisine; we focused on the Vietnamese part of the large menu. We started with orders of lovely spring rolls ($2.95) and crunchy egg rolls ($2.75). Service was extremely speedy--we were still working on the appetizers when our generously-sized main courses arrived. We split the house specialty rice stick soup (Pho Dac Biet, $5.95)--an enormous bowl of flavorful soup, noodles, and thin-sliced beef--and the Com Tam Bi Suon Cha ($6.50)--a plate of grilled pork chops, jullienne-cut pork, and a meat pie on a bed of rice and lettuce. Really delicious, and with portions that provide a truly outstanding value for the money. Tay-Ho would certainly qualify for a return visit from this charter member of BARF-SUAVE.
My overall rating (out of five):
****
