I want to lead with this restaurant is beautiful and the staff are amazing. That being said, I eat pho very regularly. By that, I mean weekly. This is the first time I've had wagyu with pho... and honestly it just doesn't belong in the dish. It's not traditional. The description of this restaurant says it's about allowing people to taste authentic flavors from Asia. Wagyu in pho is not authentic. At all. It should be round eye or flank. Throwing wagyu in there was simply done to change the price of the pho to make it "fit in" with the restaurant. A poor choice. Not to mention, the wagyu was overcooked before it got to our table. Traditionally, meat for pho should be served raw and cooked within the broth once it reaches the customer. Regardless, even if cooked by the kitchen... I mean this cut of meat was so overcooked... a huge shame for that cut of meat. Lastly, the broth smelled like chef boyardee ravioli. All around not an authentic experience. It looks right. The taste and smell are all off. Very disappointing experience. I hope they change their approach to dishes like pho. Don't make them fit in. They have their own place and taste amazing as is.
Edit after seeing Owner's response: I apologize if this is an Asian fusion restaurant. I am not seeing this word used on the website and I didn't see it in the restaurant itself. Had we known, my sister and I would not have been as disappointed as we were. We're more traditional. Now we know for the future. Also, I wanted to point out I never claimed you all claimed to be an authentic pho restaurant. You use the words "authentic" and "traditional" on your website in general for your restaurant. That was what led us to your restaurant in the...
Read moreI will start by saying my family and I love keo and eat on yale often. So when they opened the one in BA we couldn't wait to get in and enjoy having a location so close. I will say, they still have some bugs to work out. Not sure if the cook was overwhelmed by the 8 patrons, including us three and a few at the bar, but they messed up our food twice. First time was the cambodian stir fry w/seafood. That came out with beef and I eat just about anything so I didn't complain and went ahead and ate it. I usually don't get beef because I don't like the chewy Asian prep'd beef. Needless to say, I didn't finish my entree. Afterwards, my daughter wanted desert, so she ordered the banana wonton dish which is usually ice cream and 4 bananas making up a wall of yum, but ours came with the yummy ice cream, and instead of bananas, we got vegetable spring rolls. She didn't tell me until she was done eating it and I didn't have any so I couldn't tell. We were in a bit of a hurry so I didn't inform the staff, not sure what they would have done besides give us another, regardless, we didn't have the ability to take a desert with. I'm sure I will be back, I always give a place I like multiple chances, but I think I would give it a few weeks before going back. Let that chef figure out the difference between a banana and a...
Read moreThe best meal I've ever had in Broken Arrow!!! Beautiful and upscale atmosphere. Stopped by for lunch because I was looking something different, and Keo delivered. Plenty of free parking, but the lot get busy around lunchtime. Upon entering you are created with a modern and smoothing decor. There is plenty of seating and the bar is amazing and beautiful. My waiter was super friendly and knowledgeable. The menu is short but packed with delicious choices. I ordered the Grandpa's Curry, and crispy chicken wings with a sweat sauce. I had a tasty ginger beer to drink. The Grandpa's Curry was incredible ans simply the best Curry I've ever had. I'm a world traveler, but this Cambodian inspired Curry is tops!!! It initially was hotter than I normally like for lunch, but I was sad to hit the bottom of the bowl. It comes with a choice of naan bread, white or brown rice. Every bite was delicious and packed with chicken. I also had crispy chicken, which equally delicious, but lacking a tiny bit of salt or seasoning. A free appetizers of a bowl of damage seasoned with a heavenly spice mixture. I would of honestly been happier of bucket of damage with the incredible seasoning. Both my waiter and the cook refused to tell me what it was...lol. I will be eating at Keo whenever I'm in...
