Coda

Subterranean eatery infused with mystery aromas

Set in a brooding basement on Flinders Lane, the Vietnamese-French hot spot buzzes with an unpretentious atmosphere that spills over to the bar, a handy place to sit without reservations that also serves the full menu. Pairing local ingredients with gastronomic verve, the wonderfully balanced dishes are perfect for sharing, and the France-centric wine list includes many half bottles to accommodate the variation in the cuisine.
