Phở Bằng Restaurant — Restaurant in Louisiana

I like their lemongrass chicken with rice, pho with veggie broth and their grilled shrimp with rice as well. I also like their fresh squeezed orange juice which is about $7 for a large. However, I always order mine with no ice so they make me pay extra. The nerve of them not wanting to fill the cup. If you pay $7 for fresh squeezed orange juice I dont want to pay for ice that makes the cup look full, I want the juice. They really need to understand how not fair that is. I dont frequent this place as much because of this. That and they have a minimum of how much you need to spend to use your credit/debit card. Once I forgot to order one item after paying for my order and they told me that I needed to pay cash or add to my order to reach the minimum. They really need to learn to pay their due. In business, there will be some expenses and you shouldn't be putting the burden on your customers. Its not fair nor is it traditional. I used to go all the time but I started to feel cheated so now I only go every blue moon. The one on Veterans does fill my cup with no ice, no problem. Their food is also better tasting.

Disclaimer I'm really really not into any Asian foods as a whole so this might be a little bit of a not good review for those of you who do love Asian food it's just a me thing please don't judge you should really give it a try if you'd like Asian Foods you may like it better I went in for the first time ask the server to recommend me something she recommended a bunch of things which was very good she recommended the bowl as one of the highest picked items which most people like I tried the bowl my wife tried one of the platters neither one of us found anything that was even remotely tasty to us so I can't give it any rating of any good status( if my usage of the term Asian Foods is in any way Politically Incorrect please excuse...

I have to say I have always came to this restaurant loving the cooking, unfortunately today was not a good day.... We came in after 6pm in the evening for the first time on Thursday August 29th 2019. "I will never do that again" timing is everything... It was the worst experience ever for this location. I have to drop this review down to two stars from five stars normal rating. The rice was not as usual. The pork chops were very tough. The tofu and broccoli was very bland. The salted lemonade was nowhere near balanced as usual. But as good as they are regularly on a normal visit.. I will be going back to my normal before 6 p.m. visit and orders. Sorry if I his sounds a little unfair but it's my honest review thank you for...
