Every time I've ordered the veggie fried rice, it's been amazing. I had never tried Thai fried rice before this place, and honestly it was a really good introduction to it. I paired it with the Tiger Orange Chicken both times I ordered. The first time it was pretty good and leaned more positive overall, but the second time it was extremely dry, almost like jerky. Even with that, I'd still recommend trying the fried rice because that was definitely the standout item for me.

I ordered a "Bun Ga Xao Sa Ot", which is Chicken with lemongrass and vermicelli noodles, with bean sprouts, lettuce, pickles carrots and Daikon, Green Onions, Peanuts, Fish sauce and a little crispy Egg Roll. This was so fresh and delicious. The order came out so quickly and the server was nice. Usually I order this bowl with pork at other places, but wanted to try the lemongrass chicken. It was amazing, and the little crispy eggroll was delicious too. I definitely want to try it with shrimp and the beef. This kind of bowl is one of my favorites and Pho Quan makes such a good one. I've tried a few things now with my different visits and cannot wait to come back and try the Pho. So far the Bahn mi, this bowl and the spring rolls are superb. I truly don't understand the bad past reviews because this place is really good!

We had to top it all off with the Oreo Cheesecake Bao which was delish but so rich that the two of us couldn't finish it. The restaurant was fine.

But something Americans need to…read moreknow is the best Chinese food is never at the place with the best ambience or friendliest staff. Our favorites are: 1. Cumin Lamb or Beef, both are absolutely amazing. 2. Spicy and Crispy Chicken 3. Sliced Pork w Garlic Sauce 4. Sliced Fish and Tofu w Spicy Sauce 5. Sliced Fish w Salted Mustard Cabbage (this soup is a bit sour/acidic which may be a little unusual for the average American palate but if you like that flavor profile you might really like it) I like the Double Cooked Pork as much as the Pork w Garlic Sauce, my wife prefers the Pork w Garlic Sauce. Also I've never met a living soul who didn't like the cucumber appetizer.

TLDR: Horrible experience. Do NOT go here unless you want to be treated extremely rudely, spoken to…read morelike you are dumb, be charged for to go boxes, and be forced a 15% tip that is NOT disclosed anywhere on the receipt, menu, or inside the restaurant. Hotpot was the most expensive thing on the menu being $60 which is already a very high price as is. The menu was confusing because it said you got 4 meats and 4 other toppings and then the section under had two types of soups for $6 extra. My friend and I were confused because we figured the steep $60 cost would include a soup and the two soups that were an upcharge were special. The server came to take our order we think is also the owner or the manager because she was giving instructions to the other workers. When the server came to take our order we asked the server about what the broth would be if we didn't want the upcharge broths and she immediately already had an attitude and talked to us like we were dumb. She said that we HAD to pick from the upcharge broths and basically insinuated that if we just paid $60 we'd be getting raw meat and no broth which doesn't make sense to me because why not just include the cost in the price ?? Before we could even place our order she just huffed and stormed away and left us confused. We tried waving her over several times and she'd just make eye contact and walk the other direction. Eventually she came back and we just sucked it up and ordered w the upcharge broths. When she took the menus from us she slammed them down on the pile of menus in the front which was off putting. She brought us our food but gave us a plate and chopsticks. We had to attempt to wave her over several times before she finally came over so we can ask for bowls and spoons. She brought over bowls and no spoons. And we had to attempt several more times before we could get spoons. Every time we called her over she had an attitude like we were bothering her and she borderline rolled her eyes at us every time we asked for something. She also never brought a ladle for the soup either but we didn't wanna deal with her attitude again so we sucked it up and used our small soup spoons to grab soup into our bowls. Our server never checked on us while we were eating and eventually dropped off the check. We asked for to go boxes and she again seemed annoyed. She originally brought one large soup cup and one box for the meats and toppings when did NOT fit at all. We asked for a second soup cup so we can separate the broths and a second box so we can separate the meat and veggies. she again had an attitude and sighed. Then grabbed our original large soup cup and brought back two tiny ones that barely held half the soup on either side of the hotpot. We had to call her over again to ask for a bigger soup cup or a larger one and she brought over another tiny one. When we asked for a bigger one she said "if you want more boxes it's an upcharge" which is crazy to me bc we already paid a steep price for the food and now you wanna charge us for to go when you purposefully gave us smaller boxes so our food won't fit?? My friend went up to the counter to pay and the lady auto charged him a $10 tip. He was confused because no where on the receipt, menu, or in the store did it say tip was auto gratuity. On the reciept it self it also only said "suggest tips" with the price of 15%, 20%, and 25% tips. He tried to ask her why there was an auto tip and she completely ignored him and started talking to another customer. When she was done with that customer he asked her about it and she was SUPER rude and said "if you wanna eat here you have to tip." He was not planning on not tipping he wanted to change the tip lower due to the horrible service and get clarification on where the tip was an auto tip. We would've been fine paying the tip if it was disclosed beforehand but nowhere did it say that. He again asked if he can change it and she had a major attitude so we decided to just leave. In terms of the food itself. It was not worth the $66 price. The meat was not even the right type of meat for hotpot. It was thick slices like you would use for chow fun which does not go well with hotpot at all. The broth itself was fine and standard hotpot broth. The food was not worth the price and you can make it much cheaper at home with bigger portions. Overall, horrible experience and I would never go back here and never recommend anyone to eat there due to the extremely rude service and condescending tone of the server/owner.
