When they recommend the bò né, definitely take it. My sister had it and I was jealous when I was stuck with my mediocre players XD.
One issue was that the whole cut chicken appetizer was COLD, albeit not being meant to be put in hot soup or anything. This signifies how it was most likely frozen, which is somewhat understandable due to COVID restrictions but... gross.
The cơm tấm sườn (bì) chả (broken rice with beef) had its rice made with coconut milk, which was odd, and was undercooked. Plus, the meat itself was tough. The mì xào giòn đồ biển (crispy noodles with seafood) was not great either: the noodles were the cheap kind, so they felt very dissatisfying to eat. Also, some ingredients lacked any flavor, such as the quail eggs, and the shrimp were overcooked.
However, it is notable to mention the ambiance and the atmosphere of the establishment: it looks very modern. There are three televisions, where two are designated for the regular news and other local media, while one is designated for a Vietnamese show, which is a nice addition. The restrooms were also extremely clean. Though, I did hate the extremely wobbly tables.
Overall, it was ok. The service and staff members were great; I shouldve just researched the best food at the...
Read moreA great place to go by yourself or with your family. We've been here a couple of times and their food and service have always been great! We've had their chicken dish many times (Hence the name of the restaurant), we also had the bo ne (beef dish) and snails appetizer once before. Their chicken dish is always amazing and consistent. I can't comment if their beef and snail dish is as consistent but we loved it when we had it there.
The staff is also very attentive and the atmosphere is clean and inviting. If you want to immerse yourself to great vietnamese cuisine, gently expand your taste palate (moving away from pho) as well as expand your taste in music, this is a great place to be.
Unlike many other restaurant we went to, the staffs here welcomes family with small children and anticipate your need (i.e. they brought out scissors, cup with lid and bendy straw filled half way with water, small bowls and plastic utensils). The food here is a great place for children to experience new food too!
Overall, great, reliable, comforting food and service. Parking isn't great, but that's like any other parts in Dorchester. It doesn't take us more than 10 minutes to find parking each time - so compare to Boston, it's...
Read moreIt was The worst experience ever they took my debit card to purchase an order after waiting 20 minutes they then told me they did not have the food in which I had ordered. I told them to then return my order back on to my debit card she got on the phone I assume to contact her manager and the manager must have informed her to put the money back Or return it in cash. I was not happy because I would have expected fat it would have been told to To me prior that they did not have that particular food 4 for taking my debit card in having me waiting 20 minutes knowing that I had to close on a mortgage. The lady was so rude and nasty she told me to get out of her store and she said by I don't care and I said you have really back customer service and I am going to report you guys next time I will go to Ahn Ho which is classy and much better service. This place is awful do not ever take your business here. They are discriminating against...
