The ambiance at A Dong features a down-home, no-frills atmosphere. The quiet backdrop, wood paneling and tables for four make A Dong an easy, relaxing place to unwind with friends after work. The close proximity to downtown makes it a fast stop on the way home.

Food specialties: What brings people back to A Dong is the Vietnamese food and, for many, the expansive vegetarian menu.

My Favorite Spots for Asian Food

I often crave chinese food, although I love many kinds of Asian food as well. From Hyvee to the most authentic-these are some of my favorites.
