Mai Sen Bistro — Restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City

If there was an option to give 10 stars I would glady give 10 stars. I don't know where to start. The setting is romantic, the food is just out of this world. The service is probably the best I have ever experienced and I have eaten in the best restaurants in London, Milan, Venice, New York to name but a few. The menu is very reasonably priced and the high point for me is the Michelin star quality food served here. The staff went above and beyond to look after me and my partner and they gladly posed for photographs afterwards. Without doubt the best restaurant in Vietnam. I can't speak highly enough of this place. The staff are locals trained by a fantastic German chef and it's unusual to experience politeful happy staff in Saigon but this place nailed it. I will go back for my wedding 100% Shout out to the staff for providing a memorable night. 10...

The food is OK at decent price. And here is my problem: my friend wanted to order some more fresh vegetables like lettuce and cucumbers to eat with her noodles, we are OK to pay more. However, the staff insisted that they had no more fresh veggies, but if we ordered salad, they would have. So they just didn't want us to have some fresh veggies unless we ordered what they tailored in the menu.

I know this restaurant is for training and I came with an opening perspective that there would be something that is not perfect yet. Yet, I left with a skeptical mind that if I would...

Most staffs here are intern students who will work in restaurant / food services, so I would like to give an honest review. I ordered duck egg rolls as appetizer, and an order has 5 pieces but barely finished 3 due to its greasy. The taste is also very average; nothing special at all. My main course is ribeye. The steak itself is too chewy due to its quality, but thumb up for the chef for not overcooked it. The steak sauce is awesome! Im very happy with my mashed potato. Although, my broccoli was overcooked, it tasted good. Overall, I would like to give 2.5 to 3/5 for food, but Im extremely happy with the staffs; my waitress was absolutely nice! I recommend this restaurant to support...
