When Hue Thai first opened a few years back, it was an enjoyable place to go. They had very good service, and many times the owner would come say hello and ask you about your food.
The place has been through a few owners; and with the change, the service has also worsened. I say this with the consideration that it's a mom & pop Vietnamese restaurant and those are expected to have erratic service.
At some point, the management decided to serve more than just Vietnamese food, you will find various Thai dishes on the menu. Variety may be the spice of life in a food court. But in an Vietnamese restaurant aimed for authenticity, a hodgepodge of mediocre Southeast Asian cuisine will not do.
Vietnamese sandwiches (banh mi) are the unique feature of this restaurant. And even though most non-Vietnamese will order the combination sandwich, I urge you to try the egg banh mi. The eggs are cooked sunny-side-up and a tad runny. The soft yolk soaks into the crusty baguette and gives a sumptuous cheesy taste in combination with the pate. Being that they make the bread on the premise, it is very fresh and delicious.
I hope the service will improve before Lee's sandwiches opens down the road.
