We were warmly greeted upon entering and shown a table right away. We were lucky we walked in when we did because the restaurant quickly filled up! Our server was very attentive. He gave us his stamp of approval when we ordered the "Steamed Sliced Fish Fillet with Preserved Green Chili & Red Chili" dish, saying it is a very authentic Chinese way to prepare fish. It was very flavorful and spicy -- my husband said, "it was one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten." He never compliments food like this! The serving was very generous - we could have split only this dish! But we also had Seafood Fried Rice and Vegetable Gyozas so we were absolutely stuffed!

Dishes are all aesthetically captivating and excite the palette. Shiitake Donut - interesting dish that kind of reminds me of a blend of the takoyaki texture and the classic filling of a mushroom croquette; the mushroom xo shines in the flavor here creating an immaculate depth of flavor. Potato Udon - this dish eats very much like a classic gnocchi; I like the embedding of the asparagus and greens that resolves the dish from pure heartiness; the 'udon' also eats very fluffy, but less-so than the original because of the potato.

The vibes were amazing and I was loving the tunes that they were playing. I realised as the night went on that it got busier and turned into a cocktail bar and small nightclub! For starters I think I had fried chicken satay dumplings with satay sauce, this was a taste sensation. I was in love with these but only got a couple of them and they were sadly, so small! Then for main course I got pad thai (which I love) with grilled chicken and roasted peanuts, sadly I thought that there would've been some sauce but there wasn't, and the noodles didn't taste that great either. Also the chicken was cold and I only got two chunks. Now at this point I wasn't that impressed but luckily they saved the pad thai mistake with some yummy Thai Fries which tasted amazing (I couldn't stop eating them) and my dessert which was peanut butter ice cream (I'm obsessed with Peanut Butter!), sticky banana bread and some banana sprinkled with coconut. It was delicious and wasn't too small, but I could eat a good, hearty portion anytime.

I am writing this on Christmas day night watching my wife vomit in a bowl which I think tells you…read morehow terrible this place is and praying I am not going to have to ring a ambulance for food poisoning We booked months ago for our family of four with a 50% cash deposit and got a written receipt for Christmas day but on arrival we where told we had only paid a £10 deposit each and shown a machine receipt for £40 we had never receive, not the £80 cash receipt we paid. The new receipt was obviously put in the till after the fact later and wrong but because I didnt have written receipt with me we where screwed. It gets better on checking the new food & drink receipt at the table we where charged for FIVE drinks not the four we ordered, after a very long argument with the waiter we got the extra drink we never received refunded but told it will take 7-10 days for the refund. If it was not Christmas day and I was not with my wife and family I would have demanded a full refund there and then but obviously if I did that theres not Christmas Dinner on Christmas day for my family. It continued with my wife's parma violet gin coming wrong and being given something disgusting she couldn't drink, at this point we had gave up complaining because they simply didn't care. I personally didn't eat one thing because of the bad taste in my mouth from the experience and couldn't wait to leave. On leaving my wife went to order a taxi onside with my kids whilst I spoke to the owner. To my surprise all I got was an aggressive agourgant little man who sproated ruddish about how he had a million pound turn over binssnes and didnt need my money he did noticed I hadn't eaten a thing and offerd a 1 person refund that ultimately I didn't receive and he clearly just wanted rid of me and in fairness I just wanted to leave completely frustrated and annoyed with the whole situation. On leaving to get the taxi home I found my wife vomiting on the street outside which she is still doing nearly 4 hours later. My best advice would be to avoid this place and if you do go check your receipt and definitely do not book months in advance with cash. At this moment none of that helps with our Christmas ruined watching my wife vomiting time and time again, it's not even food coming up now its just foam fluid bit of freindly advice Mr Basrai's yours customers should always come first and when someone doesn't eat a thing in protest on Christmas day which you noticed theres clearly an issue and playing billy big balls with bravado is not the answer. I and all my family and associates will never step foot in your establishment ever again but I know who will! You should be very careful who you try to rip off and serve bad food to. Avoid this place like the plague, in fact the plague would better than Mr Basrai's. This is the most unprofessional, rude corrupt restaurant that serves food that can put you in hospital where it looking like my wife is heading soon if she doesn't stop being sick soon.

While I'm really happy to see this kind of southeast asian food opening near campus, the flavor of…read morethe food seems inauthentic and somewhat lacking. While I have had pho from Saigon to Hanoi, and am a therefore a little hard to please, I'm more comparing this to other asian food I've had in the UK and US. Even by those standards it is pretty weak. I ordered the Bun Bo Hue - a fabulously rich and spicy beef soup from Hue in central Vietnam. The noodles were tough and bland, and the soup, while well spiced, seemed to lack the depth of flavor that I've come to expect from Pho. Would maybe go again to try the bahn mi or other options.

Summary: A chic and well designed "pho" place that offers mixed feelings…read more If you want traditional Vietnamese Pho, this isn't the place for you. The flavor is drastically off and the ingredients used to make their pho are totally different. However, IF you are into a fusion form of Pho, take a chance and try this place out. I, clearly, wasn't a fan of the pho here. The noodles had this weird earthy taste while the broth lacked the flavor of beef. The broth was on the sweet side and clearly made to suit western tastes. Coming from Los Angeles, I was really surprised how the dish I had was called pho. However, the ONE thing I did like about the pho was that the beef they used was high quality and tasted amazing. The beef was juicy and tender, as if it would melt in your mouth! Service is dodgy. The servers here offer you service based on what you look like and how you dress. When my friend tried to order her dish while I was in the restroom, the waiter apparently told her "Not now I'm busy". However, when I called him over after returning from the restroom, it seemed as if the gold chain on my neck turned me into a "vip" client. He quickly took my order and apologized to my friend for his error. My personal experience with the service is good, but others might have it differently. On a side note, it seems like my friends really like their stir fried rice noodles. I have yet to try that--but from what I heard they are DELICIOUS.
