Ba Bar Capitol Hill

Pros: Excellent service, outdoor seating, and a dinner menu with many excellent gluten-free options, and creative takes on traditional Vietnamese dishes. The food and drinks were great, with some unusual dining options, creative pairings, and interesting and complex flavors. Definitely not a typical Vietnamese restaurant -- but something much better. Cons: 1) Excessively loud music, and 2) accommodating gluten-free diners fell apart when it came to dessert -- the chef absolutely refuses to serve their ice cream (which sounded amazing and would otherwise be gluten-free) in a bowl rather than a cone. That was a disappointing ending to an otherwise great meal.

Amazing food, staff and environment! The pictures are of the Phở Tái Lăn Dish. $17 Gluten Free Ha noi style Sauteed top sirloin (Pure Country Farm), garlic, ginger, pickled chili, citrus, green onion, cilantro.
