Food was great, the ambiance is original, & the service was on top of everything. Get the Bao Buns!!!!!

I've heard a lot of hype about this place so I had to check it out. The interior definitely stand out when you walk in. I think the best part of the inside is the bar area for me. I honestly enjoyed the appetizers more than the entrees. I was looking forward to the street tacos but they were quite disappointing. I ordered 3 different tacos and my favorite one was the fish taco. The Banh Mi taco, the meat was so dry and overcooked and same for Tia's Al Pastor. I really like the Korean fried chicken Bao buns and Chorizo wontons. My wife ordered the Pho Birria; it was spicy but bland. This place is a good spot to hang out with a groups, i'll give this another shot to try out other entrees. read more

Vandals Street Kitchen - Korean fajitas - Asian Fusion Near Me - Mobile, Alabama

Came in on a weeknight, enjoyed appetizers and dinner. Always enjoy Vandals, we will be back!

I went here about a month or so ago for the first time. Food was kinda bland, drinks were super good, atmosphere was insanely cool! Our waitress wasn't great but she was completely horrible. Mid experience for the price and limited menu options. If you're on the fence about this place I wouldn't recommend it to be completely honest. read more

Soooo good!! Such a good vibe and such good service!! Highly recommend Emma as a server!! She was very helpful with suggesting dishes for it being my first time! Will definitely be back read more

Very interesting choice for me. While it was flavorful and delicious my fajitas weren't hot when they came out. If your gonna bring it out on a sizzle platter it should at least be sizzling. Overall it was very good, if you looking for something different I'd recommend this place read more

Late leading my review as we came during the very busy soft opening. Our group loved everything we tried, the cocktails were all very good. My husband had an old fashioned that I've thought of frequently since we left! Everything was very fresh and flavorful. read more

Vandals Street Kitchen - Margarita - Asian Fusion Near Me - Mobile, Alabama

Vandals' service is excellent! Very hospitable and informative with appreciation of good foods and beverages. The ambiance is upbeat and pleasant. We enjoyed some great Brazilian rhythms yet, still felt comfortable in our conversation while those around us were also enjoying music and discussions. My husband had the Ahi tuna taco and grilled tuna taco, chased with a nice IPA. He was amazed by the delicacy of the tuna enhanced by sauce and toppings. The grilled shrimp were perfect, plump and perfect texture with veggies and sauce. I had steak tacos that were great. Really looking forward to try a poke bowl or bao. This place is wonderful! read more

Very good food! Great atmosphere as well!! The waitress was very knowledgeable about menu!

This place is so cool! The menu is very unique and everything looks delicious. And the cocktails menu is just like that too. The ube chicken and waffles was soooo good. I will definitely be back to try more stuff! read more

Everything was delicious and the service great! We went to celebrate a birthday and it was perfect. We had the cheese dip and pork rinds, the bao buns, and the Korean chicken - all outstanding. read more

Latin and Korean infused street food. Being Cuban and from Miami this placed checked all the boxes. The vibe made me feel like I was dining in an upscale Miami Restaurant without the price tag. Loved the Latin music. The kids portion was bigger then most local restaurants adult serving of chicken fried rice. My husband had the burrito and myself the tradition pork sand which and both were delicious. We started with the steak wonton and the cheese dipping sauce is so good. On top of it all fast and friendly service. Emily was such a kind and patient waitress. It always makes me anxious to go out to eat with a 3 year old but she was very accommodating and pleasant. read more

Yes! I highly recommend this place! The decor is so cool and it makes the food and drinks even better. I came here with work friends for a boozy lunch and it did not disappoint. The appetizers we delicious and the steak bowl was yummy! Those drinks tho! The best bartender ever! They were awesome. This place is a must try in Mobile. read more

Finally got to check this place out. Have had an eye on it for a while knowing it came from the Rock'n Roll Sushi brand. However not living in Mobile anymore, it took a little while to get a visit in. My wife and I wanted to try a variety of things and very happy with it all! Started out with a couple Lychee Mules which was a nice spin on a classic drink. Ordered Bao Buns with the Korean chicken which were full of flavor. Little on the peppery side for my wife, but perfect for me. Next was Birria Taco's with braised short ribs, possibly the highlight of the night. Had a rich flavor unlike anything I've had. We kept the broth to dip other things in because it was so good. Also had a Tia's Al Pastor taco(strong flavors, pork was a little tough because it was cubed instead of sliced), Hot Honey Chicken(perfectly crispy, great flavor, wish it was a little saucier), and Taco Bamh Mi(I think my wife's favorite of the high. Super tender, great flavors). Should also note that the wait staff was very attentive and friendly as well. Not once were we in need for something without it getting taken care of quickly. To sum it up, this place did not disappoint. Will most certainly visit again because there was so much more on the menu we want to try. read more

Excellent food and service! I had the crispy shrimp bowl and it was delicious. The decor was interesting.

Food is absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is nice but the venue is a little small. My only gripe is that their drinks feel a little light and they're mostly on the fruity side. Overall, we love this place. read more

I liked it! The Bao Buns were so fluffy and delicious. Its such an interesting mix of asian and southwest foods. We also loved the Birria Tacos. The atmosphere is fun and colorful. The night we went it did get pretty crowded and loud. Would love to go again. read more

This is such a cool restaurant here in Mobile!!!! Awesome vibes. Staff, servers, bartenders are all friendly. Such a cool and modern and hip atmosphere. Food is super flavorful! Love the brunch menu! Wish we had more places like this around here! read more

Excellent service. Delicious food. I was a little hesitant because of the prior reviews. It is definitely worth the trip. We had a little of everything. Nothing bland, well prepared and yummy. read more

Only a handful of customers. Fun atmosphere. Unique menu. Ramen was amazing. We will definitely be back!

Visited one day for lunch very good small plates. I need to visit again just to make sure but I was satisfied with the food that I ate mostly with just for the ambience and it was beautiful and they are to look at again. Someone suggested the fried rice didn't try at that time, but maybe next time I will return and give her for review at that time. read more

Wanted to love this place but not able to get past average taste and quality of entree. Upgraded interior is brightly lit and has multiple large images on the walls with painted chandeliers and a new bar. menu is an eclectic fusion of Asian and Mexican. Chips and French fries are replaced by fresh pork rinds which are delicious. Unfortunately, the appetizer and entree we ordered were just not that good. Appy was Bao bun with shrimp. bao bun was fresh and tempura shrimp was good but not much else added for flavor. so, kind of bland. Similarly the entree was bland too. we both ordered the OG Banh Mi sandwich which comes with the pork rinds. Sandwich roll was very fresh and good but pork slices were fatty and had a lot of gristle so very chewy. the sandwich dressing was a bit of cole slaw and jalapeño slices. The aoli was spread very thin and was bland, too. Overall we were disappointed with our meal and won't return. read more

Good food and good service. Nice atmosphere and will definitely return. Nice special of the day while we were there and daily specials on blackboard on the wall so don't miss them. read more

The food was very mediocre and the gnats/flies were very annoying while sitting at the table. I don't plan on going back to pay money for food that was just okay. read more

It's refreshing to know we have quality options for good food in West Mobile. I didn't have time for photos but trust me if you like creative subtly spicy street fare you can find your food groove here. Give them a shot, bring some friends, and try not to stare at the artwork with amazement. read more

I really liked this place the ambiance, the drinks and the food . I didn't get to try the dumplings tho because they were all sold out . The bao bun chicken was really good along with the potstickers . Oh the tacos were pretty good. The cocktail peach and Chong was really good . All in all I would go back . Everything we had was good . read more

The food was great, but the portions were incredibly small considering the price. My shrimp taco had 3 shrimp total. All in all, for the money, it wasn't worth it. read more

Two of my cousins and I went out to try a new spot, just to see if it would be a new meeting place for us. The ambience and scenery and drinks are really NICE! It's new so, it's different and we really liked that. I ordered their infamous wontons and short ribs. My cousins ordered the egg rolls and chicken wings with Korean sauce. The egg rolls are just......edible.....I pulled one of my wontons apart and wasn't impressed so I sent my wontons back (I should've read the description instead of trusting the server). The menu is VERY limited. But that can be negotiable. The food everyone else ordered, took a good minute to come out but it was no big deal. They were busy. The place was packed. I'm thinking It's a new spot, no problem. Here's what baffled me: It's comical how ignorantly rude the "manager" or whoever she was, was. She had the AUDACITY to say "we're not going to try food and send it back, are we ladies? I mean, what are we doing?" I told her we weren't and that it wasn't appetizing to my cousin. My other cousin is content with her food. My food hasn't come out. This person didn't want to take the food back so she kept sliding it back on the table in front of our cousin who was content with her meal and insisted on her to eat it and looked at her up and down and said "I'm sure she'll eat it" (mind you, we're plus size). We were so outdone that we paid for our appetizers and drinks that we did manage to receive and left. I thought of an explanation as to why she said what she said and assumed that there were individuals who came in before us and tried food and sent it back (just giving this person the benefit of the doubt). BUT.... IF this were true, why ASSUME that a completely different group of people would do the same thing ON TOP OF insulting one of us?

It's a really cool place and cool decor. I went on a Tuesday during lunch and the bar was covered in all sorts of stuff. Boxes in the corners. Just looked really junky in every corner which is sad it just shows lack of management tho. The food is very ehhhh but good atmosphere. I really think this place could be super cool if they had a real chef and good management to clean it up. Not dirty just messy looking with all the junk. read more

Food was amazing it is a beautiful mixture of asian and mexican cuisine. Server was kind and fun and the artwork and vibe in here was amazing. 10/10 recommendation! read more

I had been wanting to try Vandal's since it opened as I thought the menu looked inventive and unique, but it was a huge disappointment. Their menu is much smaller than what was posted online - I think there were maybe 3-4 main entrees, and then the tacos and banh mi. I specifically went for the birria pho and they did not have it. My husband ordered the shrimp fried rice and I ended up with the hot honey chicken and neither one of us liked our meal. The chicken had no sauce or discernable hot or honey flavor, and was extremely crunchy and dark to the point where it was almost inedible. It came with a side of fried rice which was fine, but my husband felt the shrimp in his rice was low quality and rubbery. The atmosphere is nice and service was fine, but it was super overpriced for the food quality (makes me wonder if the aesthetic is top priority and not the food itself). At this point neither one of us would want to go back and I felt horrible having spent close to $50 when we left so much of the food. read more

Excellent!! The ambiance here is great, and the food is even better! So much on the menu to try, I can't wait to go back!!

Just stopped in at Vandals and the food was GREAT! The atmosphere is awesome and the service was first class will definitely be dining here often, great lunch spot and I imagine it's a fun place at night :) read more
