Doï Southep — Restaurant in Paris

recently dined at Doi Southep and was thoroughly disappointed with my experience. Here are the main issues I encountered:

Bad Food Quality: The food was incredibly disappointing. The dishes lacked flavor, and some items even seemed stale. It was evident that fresh ingredients were not used, and the overall taste was far from what I expected. Poor Customer Service: The service was abysmal. The staff were inattentive and seemed uninterested in providing a pleasant dining experience. My requests were ignored, and it took an unreasonable amount of time to get any assistance. Overall Experience: The combination of bad food and poor service made the entire meal unpleasant. I left feeling frustrated and dissatisfied. Given the quality of the food and service, I find it hard to justify the prices.

I would not recommend Doi Southep to anyone looking for a decent meal or good customer service. There are far better...

We were visiting Paris from San Francisco and missed having a spicy home meal, so we decided to have Thai for dinner. The staff is friendly and to our surprise, the kitchen cook was also from Laos so the food tasted close to home cooking. We had the papaya salad, sausage platter, chicken pad Thai, and red curry with chicken with a side of sticky rice. All the dishes were delicious, and to our surprise, the red curry did not have bamboo shoot and bell peppers, instead it was cooked with zucchini. We also asked for meatballs for an appetizer but they no longer served them because the French majority preferred the sausage platter over the meatballs. Overall, we had a delicious meal and enjoyed a friendly conversation in Thai...

Après plusieurs visites satisfaisantes, je suis très déçue de ma dernière visite. On m'a servi un BO BUN FROID, non pas à peine chaud ou tiède mais froid. Quand j'ai eu le malheur de demander à la patronne de faire réchauffer mon plat, je me suis fait engueuler car le bo bun ce n'est pas un plat chaud. Pourtant lors de mes précédentes visites il était toujours chaud voire fumant. Je veux bien que ce ne soit pas bouillant car seul le bouillon est sensé être chaud mais il y a une différence entre tiède et froid. J'ai donc dû batailler pendant 5 minutes pour qu'elle daigne me le réchauffer car elle ne voulait pas le faire. Ensuite la patronne faisait exprès de narguer notre table en prenant les commandes des tables voisines... Au moment de régler l'addition, la patronne de nouveau a fait la réflexion à TOUS mes collègues (tablée de 9 qui d'ailleurs n'a pas osé réclamer de faire réchauffer les plats de peur de se faire engueuler) "faut dire à votre copine que le bo bun ça se mange pas chaud". C'est navrant. J'adorais les bo bun de ce petit resto familial mais je ne reviendrai pas de peur de manger froid ou de me faire couper l'appétit par des réflexions...
