Restaurant Sen — Restaurant in Geneva

We were super excited to have found some comfort food, after days on traveling.

Unfortunately, it was not up to standards. My family owned three Vietnamese restaurants, and I do a great amount of cooking Vietnamese food at home.

Ordered the Bun Thit Noung, spring rolls, and Bun No Hue.

The meat was not cooked fully in the Bun Thit Noung. Called the woman in charge (red shirt) over.

Asked her if she can take it back and have the chef re-cook the meat. Instead of offering to go back and redo the dish, she goes on, and on lecturing us about how they have the best meat distributor. And how they have the best meat..and how it's the best in the city. It's better than everyone else. I'm sure the fine Dining estblasihments are loving this.

That was NOT what I asked her. I asked if she could take the bowl back, and ask the chef to FULLY cook the meat. Just because you can eat your meat raw, does NOT we want to!!!!

She literally kept going on about how she backs their meat up,..BUT... if we really want to...she will take it to the back and have the chef, stir fry the ENTIRE thing...after seeing my b**ch face.

Stressing how they have to stir-fry the whole thing, noodles and lettuce. I mean, did you even want to take it back? No, not really.

I am on holiday w/ my niece. How do I explain to her mother if she gets sick from eating the food if it's not fully cooked??? Her stomach is not iron clad.

Repeatedly offering to take it back, BUT stressing that they will have to stir-fry the entire bowl. Smh. Sad.

My niece decided not to send it back after that ordeal. She ate her noodles, picking at the meat to make sure the others were cooked.

The Bun Bo Hue didn't taste like Bo Bo Hue, Nor did look like it. I should know, I'm Vietnamese, and this is one of my favourite soups to eat. I make it at home.

If it wasn't for the cha lua and noodles, I would have thought the waitress brought me pho. The soup broth was clear...not the orangy colour I am used to seeing with this soup

Had to ask for fermented shrimp paste and salty fish sauce to flavour it. It was barely authentic, but at least they have cha lua, mam rouc (fermented shrimp paste), and nouc mam (fish sauce).

Spring rolls peanut sauce tastes garlicky. Not sure why as we don't put garlic in our peanuts sauce.

90$ for the aforementioned and two drinks, is def not worth...

Highly Recommended! Best Vietnamese Food in Geneva

I recently dined at Sen in Paquis, Geneva, and I recommend it 100%! Contrary to some reviews I had read, I found the service to be attentive and friendly. The presence of local diners suggests that it's a popular spot among the residents, which is always a good sign.

From the moment I walked in, the aroma of the food was incredible and inviting. As an avid fan of Vietnamese cuisine, I can confidently say that Sen is the best Vietnamese restaurant in Geneva.

For starters, I ordered the Goi Cuom Tom, also known as Summer Rolls. These were deliciously fresh, stuffed with crisp lettuce and steamed shrimp, and served with an amazing peanut sauce that perfectly complemented the rolls.

For the main course, I chose the Bun Bo Nam Bo. This famous Bo Bun dish came with delectable rice vermicelli, sautéed lemongrass beef, and crispy nems. The sauce drizzled on top added the perfect finishing touch, enhancing the flavors wonderfully.

We also tried the Bun Cha Hà Nội, which featured thinly sliced pork and pork meatballs, prepared in the Hanoi style. The accompanying sauce was absolutely delicious and brought all the elements of the dish together beautifully.

Overall, my experience at Sen was exceptional. The food was outstanding, the service was good, and the ambiance was welcoming. I will definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Vietnamese...

I'm a customer for many years comes to eating at your restaurant. Yesterday evening I arrived and find a single table free, i sitting on the chair and I talk to the young service man: The music is too loud, turns the volume less loud. He responds to me, takes your headphones! A moment later, he comes to me and talk: don't drink the Coca-Cola from outside (McDonald's), I have the Coca-Cola here! I always eat and drink a beer, or a glass of wine (from your restaurant) and some orange juice, Coconut milk, Coca-Cola... from my self. Everything is ok, he doesn't talk to me about that. But this evening he talk to me so, it's comes from the problem of the music too loud i talk to him! He was angry with me and do that! Not order anything (just arrived), I take my veste, my bag and leave your restaurant! The short conversation from me with this young service man was in Vietnamese language, so the other customers they don’t understand what's happening! Hope the restaurant owner, the manager can read my message alert, and do something right with him and other...
