Cơm Tấm Cali - Nguyễn Văn Trỗi — Restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City

Today we stopped in for dinner with my family. My son and little girl as well as my wife. The wait staff was slow to receive us, which was odd because we were the second and only customers in the place. It took two waiters to take our order, I speak both English and Vietnamese, but it seemed as though the staff was not paying attention as they got our order wrong. We ordered kids meals, noodles, and pho with 1 drink. The flavour was mediocre at best. Not worth the prices. My son accidentally spilled some soup and I asked the staff for napkins...they said they didn’t have any... interestingly they said we could is the ones that were left at the table, the wet ones that they charge you extra for without telling people or first time travellers. The sad part was they had the odacity to include a tip on to the bill. We ate as fast as our children’s sped would allow and left. The whole time with the eyes of the wait staff staring, but not in a may we help you kind of way, I know this because I had to ask for the bill three times. I would absolutely not recommend this...

The foods here were acceptable, but the prices were expensive. They serve so slow. After they forced me to order some extra options, which bring their more income. Then they delivered me the meals without those. But when they collect the cost, they still put on the bill all the extra optipns. Other bad thing that they put extra charge for tax without notices. The most thing was made me disappointed that the staff didn't give me the bill, the made me doubt that the staff took me higher cost than the bill shows. Means the staff stole some money from the guest.

I think I just come back there again when there are only 3 restaurants...

[General] It is more like a food chain and not really authentic.They server a lot local food like Pho.

[Ambiente] The store offers about 50 seats at the ground floor. You have to order directly and the front office and pay afterwards.

[Pricing] It was really cheap and not comparable to touristic prices. So if you are looking for a cheap diner you can go for it.

Actually we did not have much time to look for an alternative place. We would, if...
