Restaurant Lie Mi Bulevardi — Restaurant in Helsinki sub-region

Yesterday, 25th of May 2024 I visited this place. I ordered food and wine and mentioned to the waitress that I would like to seat outside. She asked me twice if I am sure that there are some free seats outside. I told her that I am absolutely sure cause I have checked it before making my order. There were minimum 3 tables available on the terrace. After my order the team started to speak their language about tables availability outside and another girl said it's no any tables available outside. I checked not again and returned to mention there are still minimum 3 tables available outside. Even after that the third girl told that it's no table available on the terrace..... After 10 minutes to try make an order and eat I faced with a wall of misunderstanding and unwillingness to serve me on the terrace I left. I see that the establishment is already thriving and making money, and you don't need the customers who are ready to spend 35-40 euros for a 20-minute lunch, right?

I've been in that place in the winter as it was recommended by my friend. The food was really tasty as well as the service. That's why this place was in my bucket list. Unfortunately not...

A mixed experience. I ordered the Korean super bowl with a nonalcoholic beer (bottle). The small beer was priced at 6,50€ which I found to be expensive for a ethnic restaurant outside the city center. Fortunately, the main dish was really nicely flavoured with a variety of tastes and spices, but again the portion was so small that I was still hungry when finished eating. And that's for a main course priced at 16,70€. The interior of the place is a mixture of Asian, probably Vietnamese pop culture, with a hefty amount of western pub-like furniture. The western pop music is loud and really generic. The terass outside on the street is crammed and or inside terass is unfortunately nothing to remember. Except for the diverse mixture of the main course, everything else is just three stars, but four stars fot the main course. I cannot really recommend this place unless you want a small taste of spicy Vietnamese or...

Used to be one of my favorite restaurant but this has changed recently. The prices have gone up and the quality of the food is okay at best. Today I ordered a Rice Noodle Salad with Shrimp (18.80€) and it had only 3 pieces of shrimp. What am I even paying for? The service has always been bad but today it took a new low. We waited 5mins to be seated, 15mins to order and 20mins to get our food. My friends food was incredibly spicy and no staff member had time for us. FINALLY when a staff member came to us she told me that as we hadn't first complained about the food as we got it, it was kind of our fault. After explaining to her that there was no one to complain to, she finally agreed to give us a small discount. I am so dissappointed that I don't know...
