decent restaurant. super famous in can tho. service is under-averaged. prices are questionable.
let’s start with the bad.
we asked for extra lettuce for a dish we were having. they had a basket of lettuce and herbs with the dish but it wasn’t enough so we asked for extra lettuce only. they gave us another basket of lettuce and herbs. we took it anyway because we assumed it was free. we ended up not finishing neither baskets because 1, we don’t eat all that herbs. 2, some lettuce pieces are unwashed (there was dirt on them).
they didn’t inform us about the price of the basket, and we thought that it was free because IT’S LITERALLY EXTRA LETTUCE AND HERBS. bills came out, 60K VND FOR A BASKET OF LETTUCE AND HERBS. i complained with them about not informing customers that it costs more (and 60k vnd man?). i also said that they took back the baskets when we asked for the check without asking our permission (BECAUSE WE PAID FOR THEM). they were going to scam customers - making customers pay absurd amounts and then take back leftover leaves, wash them, and serve them for other customers. also i said that the lettuce was dirty. after a good 15 minutes of arguing, they didn’t charge us for the basket, bad service :)
food. they were actually pretty decent. some memorable dishes were the snails with peppercorn sauce, grilled cobia fish, and a bánh xèo-like dish with tiny shrimps (this is the one where they have dirty lettuce available to eat with).
overall, food is actually good, but service is a bit iffy. would i come back? yes, but i will pay extra attention to the bill though.
