Lemongrass SUSHI & PHO — Restaurant in Amarillo

So this was my first time to ever eat at this establishment and I had my doubts being that it's mostly a sushi place, not saying that's all they serve but it is in the name. First the place itself is a kinda upscale environment, don't want to use the word boujee and make the wrong impression, good or bad, but it's definitely not the same!! So I do not like sushi, doesn't matter who's making I just don't and may never , so that's where my doubts came into play. We ordered appetizers crab won tons I think, sorry for not being as detail oriented on this part, and they were probably great, I just don't like cream cheese , but we did order lettuce wraps, and my goodness!! They were amazing !! Simple yet very,very tantalizing for my taste buds 😋 , very rich with flavor and stupindensly delicious. If that's all I ordered , that would be enough to satisfy my hunger!! Sushi was ordered by others in the party , the western crossing and the gecko, seemed like it would taste good, by the way it looked, I hope the pics I took do it justice The Pho we ordered was good, but i really just wanted to try the broth . We also ordered the shrimp tempura and crab tempura and both were nice portion size and had some nice flavoring going on. Overall had a really good time, tried some new menubitems that I probably never would have , now the only negative thing I can say about them is that my wallet was very light afterwards, so please be prepared to dish out some greenback or start washing some dishes!!! I think I would go back but just order the lettuce, and I hope you find this review helpful enough to encourage you to take a gamble like I did!! Be safe,have fun, make...

Went to Lemongrass as it was one of the few dine in places open on a Sunday evening. I went with my two daughters who love Pho, they didn’t have a kids pho, which is fine, a lot of places don’t. But then didn’t have a kids fried rice - again would have been fine, except for the fact that when I ordered a regular size one for two of us to split and they brought out this tiny af plate with half fried rice on it. And I mean half fried in the way that you could tell it was not all seasoned. Tasted as such too. I asked for tofu fried rice, because why not, most places usually charge like $9.50-10 for tofu or other meat fried rice. NO. The ticket came and not only was the tiny plate of uncooked rice $12, but there was an “up charge” of $5 for adding tofu. So $17 for a tiny plate of half cooked fried rice. My daughter got her pho and I tasted it and it tasted like hardly any flavor had been put into it, normally when we go to places like Pho 84 at least the basic broth is so flavorful. It was so bland. If literally the only other things open are Waffle House, IHop or even McDonald’s are the only options, it will not be hard to decide next time. There are tons of other amazing places to eat that serve authentic and awesome pho, rice and I’m sure other items they have on their menu. Don’t waste...

Perhaps displaying my lack of affluence or taste, I am fond of Lemongrass (not the place particularly, but the QUALITY of the food), so you can imagine my disappointment--no feelings of betrayal--when my order was received and zilch, nothing, nada was correct. Delivery, Deal Dash, was our mode of transport; another failsafe, things will be on point. I had even received a call from their office informing me that the extra scallions my girlfriend and I added to our Mongolian beef was an upcharge. I love the chef's method of preparation, but growing up in Denver the Mongolian beef from Jade Garden was loaded with scallions, predisposing me (wether tastier or not) toward some more scall with my succulent honey braised beef. Needless to say, my upcharge was merely payment for my insouciance. Blah, blah, blah, both miso soups were missing too! Insult to injury, fill the 2.25 average-less styrofoam cup up with "tasted like" tonic water with a splash of coke. Tried to reach y'all 15 minutes after closing, I guess the phone service turns off. Have I become my parents, or do things...
