. "Saigon Star has been around for a really long time so I figured it would be a safe option for a a nice family dinner. The first thing we noticed when we sat down was the old and tattered furniture - the paint was faded/scratched and the seats were all ripped up. You'd think they would spare some money to upgrade after being around for so long... \n\nWe ordered: \n- Tom Yum Fish Soup (large): Generous portion and ample amount of ingredients in it. It had a good balance of spiciness and sourness without either flavour overpowering the other. \n- Sambal Wok Clams: These were \"meh\". It's supposed to be spicy but it wasn't at all, and there was a general lack of flavour. \n- Pan-fried Lemongrass Pork Filet: The pork was cooked perfectly but there wasn't much of lemongrass flavour. \n- Thai Red Curry with Beef Brisket: This tasted good but they were definitely stingy on this dish... barely any meat in it and it was mostly sauce. We ordered roti on the side for this which I would recommend for you to dip into the curry sauce. \n- Vermicelli with chicken, shrimp on sugar cane and spring roll: Good but nothing outstanding about it. \n- Hot Pot Seafood Rice Pilaft with Curry & Coconut Milk: My favourite dish of the night - it was delicious and very flavourful. The curry and coconut milk made a great sauce for the rice, but there wasn't much seafood to top it off. \n\nOverall, I was disappointed. My overall impression was that the food is average but more expensive then it should be. I'd think twice before coming back."^^ . "2"^^ . "0"^^ . "2016-01-28T00:00:00"^^ . "1"^^ . . . "0"^^ .
