  • The wife and I are big fans of Vietnamese cuisine and have hit all the local places. This one we were avoiding for some time due to the fact that the prices are significantly higher here than the other restaurants. We finally decided to give it a try.... We walked into what looked like a very Greek restaurant, standard pillars and archways you would see common in most traditional Greek establishments. Confusing, but whatever. There were 2 other couples in the place, far from busy. The menu was very lacking when compared to all other similar restaurants. I ordered a lemongrass chicken and noodle stir-fry with mixed vegetables. The wife ordered a beef stew. The beef stew: Served in the standard huge bowl with one exception. The giant bowl had a foot on the table about 1.5 inches across. Tiny little base, huge bowl? Put your spoon in and you nearly tip the bowl. I figured a certain someone will be wearing their soup/stew soon. As for the taste, I'm not sure how you can call it a beef stew when its made from tasteless chicken broth with a couple small chunks of beef in it, a handful of noodles and almost nothing else. Disappointing. The chicken/noodle/veggie stir-fry: I don't know how this is called a stir-fry at all. This dish was 75% raw peppers and onions, 10% noodles that had just come out of the fires of hell waiting to melt your face off, 2% frozen chicken that was still frozen despite sitting on the noodles, and 13% grease (no, not sauce, grease!). No sauce, no lemgrass, no spices, no flavour. The only thing was that cooked was the noodles. I probably would have been more impressed if they just gave me a plate with whole peppers and onions for me to chop up myself, and a glass of grease for a drink. Unbelievable. We both are not people that complain, but we were extremely close. Instead we just smothered everything in the one thing they couldn't screw up, bottled hoisin sauce, and managed to choke half our meals down before giving up. We waited for the bill for a while. and continued to wait. and waited some more. Just as I stood up to go to the counter to inquire about the bill we finally received our drinks. And they charge a premium price?! What makes this premium in any way? Needless to say we won't be back.
