Mu Restaurant — Restaurant in Redlands

This was our first time here and we were were celebrating a birthday. We enjoyed our food very much. The service was attentive and pleasant. We ordered the tofu lettuce cups to start. They were three generous portions already in the lettuce leaf. They were delicious, but hard to eat because the sauce and filling fell out. I would rather the filling be served in a bowl with a stack of lettuce leaves on the side for me to fill one at a time. We also shared the red curry, sweet and sour tofu and veggie fried rice. We loved them all and there were no leftovers! The red curry was the perfect blend of spice, creaminess and sweetness. My mom had the orange chicken and said it was the best she has ever had. We finished with the purple ice cream for the birthday girl and it was delicious. A large serving for sharing. I can't wait to go back. They can make many items vegan. To Mu, you should put your restaurant on the Happy Cow app. I would have discovered...

Off we were to stop with friends in Redlands on our trip thru to points east. We went for dinner at MU and were way beyond pleasantly suprised. This place is fabulous. Only a medium sized restaurant, it seemed to get very full with lots of waiting as the prime dinner hour came nearer. Luckily we are early eaters and got seated wtih a very short wait. The place is quit modern and well appointed. The service was reasonable considering all the action and the tight quarters. The staff, from the greeter, to the waiter, and others was always kind and engaging. The spring rolls were so fresh and crunchy. The sauce I could eat with a spoon. Yum Yum. My pineapple fried rice, which is always a favorite 'test' dish for me at a new restaurant was done well. The chef has his own little twists and they were all good for me. Would I return? You bet. There are so many choices on the menu and only so much space in my tummy! Another trip to Redlands...

I used to LOVE Mu until this most recent time we went WITH birthday reservations for my mom and we were ignored. We stood at the restaurant entrance inside waiting to be attended to and servers/waiters and staff kept passing by us and even told us we were in their way. They told us to go stand across at the bar. So there we went to stand at the bar entrance waiting. Same thing happened. I was so patient because my mom loves Mu and we missed this place and couldn’t wait to come back. But again, we were told to scoot over and move out of their way. Although I told them we made birthday reservations in advance, they didn’t care. We were so fed up that we left and I’m never giving this place a chance, despite the positive memories I previously had. AWFUL service. Disrespectful and inconsiderate....
