Hong Hoa — Restaurant in Brussels

Like a tourist I visit this restaurant via the reviews. Unfortunately I was disappointed. I ordered Pho bo, I’m used to get soup with lemon, fresh herbs and chili. I didn’t get any of these things (plus napkins were also nonexistent) and I had to ask for lemon unfortunately lady who served us doesn’t speak English. Also in the soup I had some two balls of meat which I don’t know what kind of meat is it and very but very fat piece of meat… My friend ordered vegetarian version and she also wasn’t satisfied because the soup was very oily and the tofu was bitter.

The worst Vietnamese food I have ever had. Completely bland, no condiments, no fresh herbs, just complete waste of money. The woman was also really rude and unfriendly, rolled her eyes at me when I asked if they have tap water available, and when they made a mistake with my entree she was clearly annoyed when i politely asked for it to be fixed... Im disappointed as i chose this place over multiple other Vietnamese restaurants in the area and it was a lot of money to spend on a meal with no flavour...
