Upon looking at the menu, I immediately thought that it was a bit pricey. We picked some items and waited a bit for someone to notice that we were ready to order. Not attentive, tsk tsk. But after taking our orders, they gave us some bread with butter and a nice dip which I liked.
Here the items we ordered and some comments:
Appetizer: Hanoi - Shrimp and vermicelli wrapped in rice paper with peanut sauce dip
Uhm, it was plain. I can't say it was bad, but I didn't like it too much. Maybe I was expecting something more special than rice paper, sotanghon noodles, lettuce and some little shrimps.
Soup: Clare - Five mushroom with oyster chip; Tomy - Puree of tomatoes with ricotta cheese and baby arugula
The mushroom soup is bland and muddy. Tomato soup was nothing special. You can get it from another restaurant for a better price.
Entrée:
Tango - Duo of seabass with foie gras
This was supposed to be their best-selling entrée but it's hard to imagine why. The seabass is good, but not too good for the price. And duck liver is just not my thing.
Folger - US Angus Rib-eye
Normal US angus steak. It was grilled medium well as we like it. No complaints here.
The mashed potato that came with both entrées is very nice. :)
But unfortunately, they never served the Mango Shake we ordered. :(
The overall experience was disappointing. The food did not compensate for the price and the (lack of) service. We're probably never coming back to this place.
