I ate there last May, when they first opened. Beef pho and fried spring rolls. I thought the food was very good and authentic. Which reminds me, I need to get back there and try the other things!

4 of us ate at Kin U Dee last night. Between the 4 we ordered nearly every Vietnamese dish on the menu. All of them were excellent and my wife said we need to come back once a month, and she's never said that about any restaurant in Hua Hin. (She's a died-in-the-wool Bangsnobian.) The whole dinner came to 1365 baht for 4 people. That's outrageously cheap, especially for quality food.
The restaurant is well appointed and with large windows all around, very open and spacious.
The service was excellent, a bit dour, but nothing to fuss about.
At the end of the meal, my daughter was looking at the bill and noticed that they had left off the tea she ordered and called over the waitress to inform her. The waitress took the bill to the owner and returned saying, never mind.
Little things go a long toward satisfying a customer.

So where is it?
Courage is grace under pressure and when circumstances change you change your mind.
Directly across the road from Market Village. You'll see a large, white, 2-story building with windows all around. Parking is down the driveway, along the left side of the building. To exit the parking, drive forward to the first opening on the left and turn around to go back to Petchkasem.
They have a website.

We went for lunch a few days ago. Like you said food, and prices, were fine but the service sucked. We were the third table and there were three waitresses. They seemed to be ignoring each table until someone said something then one would shuffle over unsmiling to see what is up. Our drinks came about 10 minutes after we ordered them (water and iced tea) and all the while the three were talking and playing with their phones. The wife, and I, agreed that despite the good food, and decent prices, there were plenty of other places to spend our baht. Both the wife and I don't demand instant service, and if busy certainly understand, but in this case it was obvious none of the three wanted to be there.
The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.

If that had been our experience we wouldn't return either.
