ASIAN BISTRO — Restaurant in Winston-Salem

Tldr: dedicated customer from the beginning; yelled at to leave after starting order because she had a bad day.

The only reason you go here is for reliably mediocre food like all hole-in-the-wall places. I’m a fair customer. If a server is having a bad day I don’t care if they don’t even acknowledge me as long as I get what I ordered on time. On several occasions that wasn’t even true but I always waited patiently with a smile because hey at least the dependable mediocre food would come.

I guess the current reality of things was just too much and the lady finally had a break. On the rare occasion I decide to bring a friend, no less. We were simply looking at a menu after starting the order and two boys came in. She yelled at us to leave with absolutely zero undue grace, she couldn’t take our order. I don’t know what happened for her to take her bad life out on me but I don’t deserve it and nothing about my experience in the history of this place has ever been worth getting yelled at and I won’t tolerate it. I only started going here because they offered tofu when few places did. Inertia set in. That’s it. I will never be back. I’m sorry the world is hostile. I’m not your enemy. Good luck in ‘25. Outlook not great.

BTW, not that it’s relevant since you don’t even offer dinning room service any more, but it’s never ok to mop with filthy bleach water directly at customer’s feet while they’re eating. It’s not clean like you think it is. It doesn’t make the customer feel like the place is extra clean. Also the wall appliqués have ridiculously funny pictures and misspelled english phrases. I guess no one ever told them it doesn’t make sense. Windmills: how do they work? I guess Asia is known for their meadows and large whimsical...

I ordered from Asian Bistro through door dash to deliver for lunch today. This was my 1st time eating here, and I changed it up because my usual go-to Chinese food restaurant was very disappointing after several years of good food. (My last 3 orders were thrown out after a few painful bites, and you know, 3 strikes and all). Anyway, I’ve never been to Asian Bistro or even seen the place so I can’t attest to the actual restaurant but reviews on Door Dash were good. I ordered the Szechwan chicken and the chicken lo mein because I wanted enough to take home for dinner and it was a LOT of food!! Both were very good! Fresh and very tasty! The fried rice was also really good. Nothing was bland or greasy and had plenty of spice in the Szechwan. Wasn’t crazy about the egg roll but I’ve never been a huge fan of them so had nothing to do with the egg roll itself. All in all, this is the Chinese food I’ve been missing! So happy I stepped outside my box and didn’t give up on it after my recent order fiascos LOL. Please don’t change your recipes!! ...

The Asian Bistro Experience (Call In / Pick Up Edition). I called Asian Bistro and ordered their mixed vegetable lunch combination with vegetable fried rice and spring roll on my quest to try different restaurants. Kind of pricey for lunch, but you never know what size you get, so I was optimistic. Once arriving, I encountered a worker taking an order over the telephone. I saw the worker roll their eyes while on the phone and just imagined her doing me the same when I called to place my order.

Once at my destination to eat, I did enjoy my food. The vegetables tasted fresh, and the rice was good. So would I return to the Asian Bistro? I feel like their customer service lacks, and their prices are high for me. My order came close to $10.00 for lunch; however, the size was the same as your typical small lunch take-out size. Nevertheless, the flavor was there. However, I have had just as good at other spots where the prices are lower, and the customer...
