With a stylish, funky two-story setting and fusiony twists on traditional fare, CO brings Vietnamese street food to the heart of the King Street shopping district. Tender gyoza dumplings and sweet pork belly buns anchor the small plates menu. A slate of bánh mì sandwiches tucks caramel pork, sweet and spicy shrimp, or five-spice pork belly inside crispy baguettes, while big bowls of pho, ramen, and fried rice are savory and filling. With a full menu of beer, wine, and sake plus an ambitious list of East-West fusion cocktails, CO is more of a high-energy hangout than a quick dining spot. A late-night menu gives King Street revelers a reliable option for a midnight dumpling or bánh mì fix, too. —Robert Moss, Dish (Summer 2012)
