    Viet Beef stew
    Richard L.

    Fantastic pho! I have had a ton of pho in my life and being from Cali, I had some of the best...and this place is now on that list. Simply amazing and impressive. I'd tried the beef stew pho and it was amazing! The portion is perfect for a large with a ton of beef stew portions and the most important factor is-the cost is just right! Highly recommend if you want some pho. This place is kinda hidden with all the food options in the area, but if you give them a shot, you won't regret it!

    The grilled pork and rice was pretty tasty. The pho was standard for Utah. The service was good for Utah. I enjoyed the eggrolls.

Service has never been anything short of stellar & this is coming from someone who has been a regular since the 90s. Decades without a single bad experience in food or service. The rare beef Pho is excellent. The icing on the cake is that they take notes and remember their customers. My wife told them over a year ago that I'm deaf & prefer a booth to better understand conversation/lipreading & they remember every time without saying a word. Wonderful restaurant and fantastic people across the board.

    Disappointing Experience - Food Quality & Service…read more I've been to Mi La Cai Noodle House before, but unfortunately, my most recent experience was very disappointing. I ordered the wonton soup, and the pork wontons did not taste right to me. I let the gentleman who was helping us know about the issue, and he told me, "Let me see with my manager what I can do for you." To be clear, I wasn't asking them to take the soup off my bill or give me anything for free. I simply wanted to see if they could provide a little more meat so I could finish my bowl. I thought that was a reasonable request, especially since I had already explained that the pork wontons didn't taste right. Unfortunately, the gentleman never came back to our table, and the manager never stopped by or spoke with us at all. We ended up paying the full bill, and no one even apologized or offered any kind of resolution. When the host later asked how everything was, I explained that the wonton soup wasn't as good as I expected. She simply said, "Oh, sorry." While I understand that mistakes happen, it felt like a very dismissive response, especially after we had already brought the issue to their attention. I honestly feel like the food quality at this restaurant has gone downhill. What disappointed me even more was the lack of customer service and follow-through. If a customer takes the time to politely bring up an issue, I would expect someone from management to at least come to the table and address it. Unfortunately, after this experience, I won't be coming back. I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously because I used to have a much better impression of the food and service.

Sometimes I eat here two days in a row because it's just that good. The restaurant recently opened their doors to all ages which is a huge plus. But kids can only eat inside the restaurant (patio seating is 21+). Today, my family had the "DK Experience" which is a six course meal that feeds 4-6 people. It was PLENTY of food and everything was delicious. You do not need to order anything extra because it is a good amount of food. The best part is the duck - so flavorful and beautifully cooked. We spent about 2 hours here as each course is made to order, so be aware of that if you're also ordering the DK Experience. My favorite dish here is the Three cup chicken. The flavor has so much depth and is beautiful seasoned. Be sure to visit during their lunch happy hour for the best deals in town. Thank you Drunken Kitchen for cooking up the best Chinese food in SLC - see you next time!

I told her it was my first visit so she reviewed the menu and gave me a few recommendations. Unfortunately the experience went downhill from here. I was dining with a friend for an early lunch. We ordered the pork pot stickers to share. Then we also ordered sticky ribs, chicken sando and egg drop soup. The server took our order and returned promptly with our drinks. After some time passed the server returned to inform us the ribs were sold out and provided us with a menu to look at other options. A little more time passed and then more bad news the egg drop soup was also out of stock. We declined on ordering anything else and I asked if my chicken sando was still coming and was told yes it's on it's way. Meanwhile we watched three other tables arrive and place orders and even receive their food and yet my chicken sando was still missing. I flagged down our server and again was told my chicken was coming. Another 15 minutes passed and still not sandwich. I politely flagged down our server and requested the check as our lunch experience had gone on for over an hour now and still our food was incomplete. We got an apology and the bill and began to exit. As we were leaving the server arrived at our table with a takeout bag with my chicken sando. I'm not sure what was happening on this visit but something felt very off at the Drunken Kitchen. First impressions are very important especially in a dining experience and this first impression was not good at all.

This tastes like mom's kitchen if mom had a high flamed gas stove. The dishes that benefited from that smoky hot wok flavor had it. I was so excited to eat I forgot to take pics of all the dishes at the table. Green beans with garlic was so tasty, I finished the leftovers the same night, I remembered to take a photo in the takeout container. The cauliflower (I don't know the actual name but it's stir fried, spicy and comes with peppers) had wok hei and I couldn't stop eating it. Beef rolls is the sophisticated auntie of the scallion pancake. Think of it like an asian burrito with thin sliced beef, fresh scallion and cilantro, and a touch of hoisin all hugged together with a crispy tasty scallion pancake. The shredded potato tastes like the best potato salad that isn't your picnic potato salad. The shredded potatoes were quickly blanched then stir fried preserving the crunch and crispness similar to al dente pasta. Seasoning was on point. The homiest flavor came from the stewed short rib. The rib pieces were braised in a soy and star anise sauce like what you find in Taiwanese beef noodle soup. The peels potatoes were cut rustically and just cooked through and not mushy. Authentic flavors and freshness like this is so so hard to come by. I can taste the quality of the ingredients used. One tip I have for selecting authentic food is by looking at the customers. If the customers are all Asian eating at an Asian restaurant, you know the food is going to be good. Service was 10/10, waitress was super polite and stopped by to chat with us about the food and SLC. I am from out of town but I grew up eating at NYC Asian restaurants and this is as good as if not better. If you happen to stop by the largest Costco in the world, make a pit stop here to refuel after all those steps.

I couldn't tell you what they put in it other than to tell you, it doesn't matter. Well I could tell you that it has green onion and char siu. The thing I order every single time is the beef roll. It is an onion pancake wrapped around beef, cilantro, and green onion with a delectable sauce. I can't stop tasting it. I feel like you can't go wrong with any of the noodle dishes. Be prepared for a culinary adventure, you won't be disappointed.

    I really had high hopes for Thani Bowl Noodle House in downtown SLC, but it kind of was a let down…read more I ordered the "I Don't Know" (Pad kra praw) and a side of their Cream Cheese Rangoons. The "I Don't Know" was requested with beef and at an additional fee, shrimp & squid. They were out of squid so they said they added additional shrimp, but I really didn't see the difference. I also had requested the dish be "Thai Spicy", as in the spiciest possible. I have had Thai Spicy elsewhere that literally made my tongue burn and tears run down my cheeks (my preferred spice preference when ordering Thai food). This was beyond weak! It was medium spice level and not anything more. Very disappointed there. The beef and shrimp were very fresh and cooked well. It basically is a stir fry with red & green bell peppers and onions with a side of steamed white rice (that in itself was also, just "okay"). I definitely wouldn't have ordered the Cream Cheese Rangoons had I known it only came with 5 pieces that are extremely small. A small amount of sweet chili sauce was also included with them. For the price point and portion sizes I just don't feel that this place is worth all the hype. Don't get me wrong; it was good but it definitely wasn't great!

The food also comes out pretty quickly, which is always a plus. There were a couple of frustrations with this visit, though. They had flyers on the tables advertising their new Dino Ramen, and the flyer stated that you could get free ice cream with any Dino Ramen OR any other bowl of ramen. When we went to get the free ice cream, we were told the offer was only valid with the Dino Ramen and that the "any bowl of ramen" offer was only available at their other location. That was pretty confusing considering the flyer was sitting right on our table at this location. If the promotion is different depending on the location, they really need to make that clear on the flyer or not have those flyers out. Service was okay. The food came out quickly, but there wasn't much checking in afterward. We had to go out of our way to ask for things like refills or anything else we needed. Despite those issues, I really enjoy the ramen here, especially the Spicy Tonkotsu and hand pulled noodles, so I'll keep coming back. I just hope they improve the communication around their promotions and become a little more attentive with service.
