    Had to make a change to my start time and the host was very helpful and quick to adjust for me - really appreciated that my first point of contact with the restaurant was so positive. The service and food were all excellent - particularly good Green Papaya Salad and Banh Mi with a side of Truffle Soup. Also enjoyed sharing the grilled branzino and duck tamarind with the table. I look forward to returning to La Dong in the future.
