Tem Sib Eatery & Bar — Restaurant in Bellevue

It’s our first time there today and probably our last time coz of the way we were treated by one of the servers name, “Woody” if i’m not mistaken. We (5 ladies) had a 10am reservation and the moment we were seated she reminded us right away that our table has an 11:30 reservation. At first we were like, yeah sure. We tried to study the menu as quickly as we can so we could order. Then came our food, it was plated nicely and everything looks good. And we noticed that this lady server kept on walking by our table and would give us a look, since we’re having a great time we just brushed that off. And came to pay our bill, while we are waiting for my sister’s credit card to be returned she came again and reminded us of the 11:30 reservation. We were mindful of the time the whole time we were eating and it’s only 11:20. We got really upset coz the table next to us was empty and why sat us on our table if you knew of that other reservation. So i got up and went to talked to the manager. We’ve been through a lot of restaurants and some of them are really fine dining but we were never treated like this. We felt like we are being watched and rushed by this server. So we are never coming back again and the food that we tried was not even that good. Yeah, presentation was nice but flavor wise it’s not very tasty. I’m onIy judging the food that we ordered maybe some other dishes are better. But i still think that this place and their food got overhyped by the social media. And to top our experienced today Woody and the other servers started talking in their dialect while we are leaving the...

Husband and I went to Temsib today for brunch. We didn’t have reservations, so we had to wait for about 30 min. This 2 star service review is not about that. We were sat at the patio, my husband’s food came in first and I had to wait for 15 minutes for mine. We ordered a side of toast and we asked for new ones because it was cold by the time they served my food. My husband’s food was also cold by then. We mentioned to the server who brought in the food and they just smiled and said they were sorry. Presentation is 10/10, for sure! Never seen such beautiful plates. And the drinks are really good just as much as they look! Knocking down one star because no one should pay to eat cold food. Or a table should not be served if all the guests’ orders aren’t ready yet. No one came to check in on us, and I actually finished my drink and was ready for another one, but no one came to check in on that. I also wanted to order dessert to go, but I gave up considering the bad service and how long it could take. Because by the end of our meal, the sun went away and we were cold on our seats without any help to turn the heaters on—again, because there was no one checking the patio. We were very disappointed with the service for a $100 breakfast. We would still consider going back to give it a second chance, maybe make reservations to sit inside, since the patio seems to be disregarded. We also noticed the same thing happened to the table next to us. They brought in the dishes about 10-15 min apart from each other…...

when i heard there was a new Thai restaurant in town, I just had to try it out. We were not disappointed. Went on Tuesday night at the tail end of snowpacalypse 2019 so it was a bit slow inside with a only a few other tables at what is normally peak dinner time. was able to get street parking, though i read there is a free (2 hr) garage located on the street behind the building. the drinks were good, we tried the Lychee thai tea and lychee lemonade, both had great flavor. i should also mention that service was on point, we were checked in on multiple times during our meal. for food we tried the volcano chicken, crab pad thai, and khao soi (kow soi noodles on their menu). Volcano chicken was neat, the chef brought it out and poured a little liquor on it and set it aflame. flavor was good and it was very tender. my wife enjoyed this dish the best. the crab pad thai was pretty standard in flavor, the cool bit was that they use fried soft shell crab which is placed on top of the noodles split in half. lastly the Khao soi which i was most looking forward to was very satisfying, a little thicker soup base and with more curry flavor than i am used to but with all the fixings and chili oil that i am accustomed to. The chicken was well braised and flavorful from sitting in the soup. i would 100% come back just to have this one dish and i cannot express how happy i am to find a place so close to home that...
