| - I called in last night around 8:25 to ask them when they close and when they stop taking take out orders. The lady told me they close at 9, but she would wait for me to come in.
I jumped in my car and arrived at the restaurant at 8:40. I saw one couple leave as I arrived, two ladies finishing their meal, and a man leaving with his to go order. I also noticed a man in the back as he finished washing dishes. The lady greeted me every so nicely, and took my order, as I paid another customer called to place an order, he was a regular.
Once she put our meal tickets to hang in the cooking area, the man came and started yelling at the lady "Ahh! You know no what time we close!??!! I'm tired!! I no like it!!"
The lady and I smiled and shared a little chuckle as I signed my receipt. I felt so bad I left her a $5 tip. This all happened by 8:47. By 8:52 PM, the man left the building; leaving the lady to cook and clean the whole restaurant by herself. She even tried telling him to quiet down because they still had customers and it was embarrassing for her and bad business. I felt so bad!!!
I grabbed the traditional Vietnamese dinner plate with egg rolls. It was so delicious! Not as delicious as the Vietnamese food I've enjoyed in LA. But for now, this will do. I will be back because I've also enjoyed their pad Thai, but again, don't go in there 45 minutes before they close.
