mains
Monsieur Vo's mains are the heart of the menu, showcasing authentic and bold Vietnamese dishes with a contemporary twist.

For an adventurous palate, the BBH Beef Shank is a showstopper — whole beef shank simmered in a rich bún bò Huế base with fermented shrimp butter and authentic bún bò Huế sauce, delivering deep, complex flavors that pay homage to Vietnamese culinary heritage.
The Lemongrass Fish offers a delicate balance of honey butter and scallion oil atop a tender 3-4 lb sea bass, crowned with crushed peanuts, crispy salad, lemongrass, and chile peppers. Wrapped in rice paper with anchovy sauce, lettuce, and fresh herbs, it creates a harmonious bite of textures and tastes.
Tamarind BBQ Ribs are baby back ribs glazed in tamarind honey, accented by kaffir lime leaf, refreshing cucumber, and toasted sesame seeds—juicy, tangy, and perfectly balanced.
