| - Saw the sign about Grand Opening while going to store nearby. Decided to stop by and get some takeout. It was about 7pm tonight. Saw a sign for free egg roll and drink because of the Grand Opening. Oct 28-Nov 3. We are very familiar with Vietnamese food and order grilled pork with rice, egg rolls and chicken wings. Did not get our free drink for take out, but no big deal. Beautiful atmosphere and ambience. We just felt that instantly, the staff was unprofessional in dealing with customers as they did not seem to know how to welcome customers. But hey, we were for the food so we tried to look over that initial awkwardness. When I placed the order, the Vietnamese lady only spoke Vietnamese to me. I had no idea what she was saying ... Looked like it was owned by a lot of older people which is fine ... But maybe not many even spoke English? After the first lady took my order on a sticky yellow note after I pointed out what I wanted of which was written only in Vietnamese? She went and spoke to an older woman who told me I would get a free egg roll with my pork and rice order. I said sure!
Order came out rather quick which was great.
I just also disliked that the women who worked there constantly spoke Vietnamese loudly. What if other Vietnamese customers are there and hear them talking crap about customers? To me, I felt I was in a nail salon where the Vietnamese talk about their customers. Just being honest.
Anyhow, the food? Egg rolls were not good nor were they fresh. Looked ugly and tasted like they were refried egg rolls. The egg rolls had no flavor except saltiness. Meh, unimpressed. We ate it in the car so didn't get to take a picture of the order itself. However, you will see it in the order with the pork and rice. As for the wings, unauthentic. Tastes like wings from any restaurant ... Just salty with a fried chicken powdered coating. Had egg roll sauce from a bottle as dip? Unimpressed. It was not authentic Vietnamese wings ... I go to a Vietnamese restaurant to get authentic Vietnamese food, not American style wings. Then down to the grilled pork ... The pork itself tasted ok, however, they were extremely skimpy on lettuce/ vegetables. And look at the picture ... The dipping sauce has no garlic, no cucumber, no carrots, literally just tasted like watered down fish sauce with some sugar.
The food quality and presentation did NOT match the beautiful new restaurant. The restaurant looked upscale, but the food was anything BUT that.
I haven't tried other foods, but this will be my first and last time. Service not good. Food was disappointing. Go here if you are close by and have no other choice, but there are definitely better options elsewhere with better quality and portions for the price.
The only reason why they get two (2) stars if for the beautiful restaurant. Food, nothing special.
