T.A Kitchen & Bar - Thao Dien — Restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City

I over ordered as usual and am waiting for the meal now. I'm sharing a table with somebody which is unusual for me but... I guess I need to try new experiences. I'll start off with giving this place a 5 star rating and mark down if I see something I don't like; I already do. There is a dog running in the kitchen. I don't know, not very appetizing for me. I guess I feel it's okay for the meat of dead animals to be in a kitchen but not an alive cute one like they have here. Hey, my food just came - now this looks appetizing, especially the carrots 🥕 and asparagus. It reminds me that I need to cook the asparagus in my fridge before it goes bad. Hey I'm finished; I ate mostly everything on the plate. I left half the tortilla chips because it makes me feel like I'm doing something good for my health if I only eat half. Forget the half I ate - that's my sick way of thinking. The chicken was delicious. That's what I think I ordered. It looks like sliced pork. Don't you think so? Anyway, I'm going to give these people back their fifth star because they deserve it. Despite the dog, all the food was delicious. They also have an interesting menu with some things that I want to try. Service was fast and friendly enough too. I guess if I had any advice, I would tell them they should play a little bit more of an eclectic selection of music. Actually, some Dionne Warwick is playing now and she reminds me of my brother who is... This restaurant really deserves five stars, and I'm coming back too. And forget what I said about the music, it's really...

Now thats the response of a succesful business owner, the simple gesture of a free coffee (which i wouldnt of taken but appreciated the gesture) and apology at how unhappy i was with the original coffee would have me given you a 5 star from the start. I wouldnt have minded so much ice if the coffee was strong but it wasnt even strong hence why i ordered another. This response is how you should of dealt with the situation from the start and ill change my review to 5 star so you can handle these situations better in the future, as i said your food is phenomonal, staff were so nice, but the way you handled this situation was very poor, i wish you nothing...

T.A Kitchen & Bar at 94 Xuan Thuy is a casual dining spot tucked away in Ho Chi Minh City's District 2, offering a unique blend of modern Asian and Western cuisine. The relaxed atmosphere makes it a popular choice for various occasions, from casual dinners to special celebrations.
