I came here for dinner on Sunday night, my sister and I was super excited that they have My Quang, not a lot of restaurants have that on their menus around here!
The restaurant was very beautiful and clean, but I don't know, the way they ran the place seemed very unorganized. We had one party in front of us, I think they sat theirselves because I didn't see anyone come and seat them so I asked my sister if we should do the same but she told there's a sign that says "Please Wait To Be Seated." So instead of waiting, my sister decided to ask a staff member since no one really acknowledge us as we walked in.
So we went to go seat ourselves, but we had to remind them out getting us menus and it took about 15 minutes to get out orders :/. At this point, I was just kind of unsure about this recommended restaurant because the service was just very poor.
Anyways, I ordered the My Quang, Banh Beo, Banh Bot Lot, and Passion Fruit Tea. My passion fruit tea was very good, not too sweet. However, I was a bit upset with my My Quang that came out, it took them 40 minutes to prepare it, but it came out cold. I didn't say anything because at that time I was already super hungry, and I just wanted to eat. The noodles were very soggy like, easy to break, like they maybe cooked it for too long. It's a small portion, but remember that it's only $5.00 so I think it's fair.
While we waited, I was very appreciative that one of staff, the Vietnamese lady with the bigger iris effect contact lense came and brought us shrimp egg rolls. It took about 15 minutes for the Banh Beo and Banh Xeo to come out, and 20 minutes for the Banh Bot Lot. Some of the food we received were cold, some were hot, not sure why, but I would think that if it's going to take that long then my food should be freshly made and hot. The Banh Xeo was good and crispy, but Banh Beo and Banh Bot Lot we're very oily.
Then towards the end, we also get brought two orders we didn't order and had the staff tell us "Oh I guess I just pay for it then since it's already been made." I am not sure if that comment was suppose to make me feel bad and just eat and pay for it because if I don't, then she'll have to pay, or what.
Overall, I rated this restaurant a three because this was the first few days they have opened up and even though I didn't receive the best service, I am very happy with the service I received from the Vietnamese waitress, I am not sure of her name but she had big iris effect contact lenses. Not because she brought us free appetizers while we waited, but because she acknowledged us, and came to us knowing that we have been waiting forever.
I think if they were a bit more organized they would excel because I did like the environment, and would like to come and try them out again maybe in a few months from now when they settle down because I felt like the staff weren't given enough training yet.
This also seemed like it was more of a fun small snack item place than a restaurant because everything is very small sized portion, and you can't really order a bigger size as I saw from the menu. So if you order something, make sure you order an appetizer too!
