Vietnam Café is sleek, with alternate walls of exposed brick, pressed bamboo, lemongrass and papaya-hued paint. Offering only 30 seats and a BYO policy, it's a smaller, more intimate experience than 11th Street. And the original menu, which contains nearly 100 items, has been pared down to a more manageable list of greatest hits — a pork chop served over broken rice, charred grape-leaf-wrapped beef rolls, salt-and-pepper squid, a creamy crêpe with ground pork and shrimp. There are a few kinds of pho on offer, including pho sate, a version of the noodle soup where peanut sauce joins thin slices of brisket, cellophane noodles and customary fixins like lime wedges, chili pepper slices, bean sprouts and basil leaves.
