Crystal Bar & Restaurant

In a spot that was formerly a Long John Silver's, and a bakery, Crystal Bar & Restaurant serves Vietnamese and Chinese food along South Kingshighway. With a large patio in front and an ample dining room, Crystal offers an expansive menu of Asian dishes. While the Chinese menu consists mostly of familiar items such as cashew chicken and Mongolian beef, it is the Vietnamese menu that offers a wider array of cuisine. Appetizers include minced pork rolls called cha gio and other spring rolls with pork or shrimp, bi cuon and goi cuon. A small pho menu is also available. Crystal's Vietnamese entrées feature several different bun items, vermicelli with pork or shrimp or beef and other ingredients. Specialties include ca kho to, catfish cooked and seasoned in a clay pot, and tom hum xao gung, stir-fried lobster with onions and garlic. Crystal has a large parking lot that surrounds the building.
