Mekong
Mekong serves Vietnamese food with a focus on crafted beers, recognized for its excellent beer list that was ranked best in an American bar in 2012. Vegan diners can enjoy tofu dishes like Lemongrass Tofu and Curry Tofu, though these require request-based modifications since the menu is not explicitly vegetarian or vegan. The atmosphere is relaxed but some past guests have found the service unfriendly and the vegan options limited and inconsistently prepared—particularly concerning sauces like oyster sauce. Prices are moderate, and the venue is casual with a strong emphasis on beer.
