"It is rare that I am so interested in a place for the good reviews, but when I go there it is a total disaster. I lost my appetite halfway through this cold meal. Maybe my group of 4 didn't know what the waiter was trying to do as if he helped us, but I think he needs training. This meal was a TERRIBLE VALUE for the money. With a 20% tip (which they do not get the review would have been about $105, with 3 diet drinks and a water. Four salad dishes I found for money extremely mediocre. And a very strange shrimp appetizer packed in fried noodles that neither looked good nor appetizing, but tasted ok. What's going on? It was that the waiter decided to give us extremely slow service, which led us to be the last people we served when we were one of the first to sit. We've seen 12 people get their food before us, not take customers. If there should be a very long delay, the waiter should have mentioned it. But he shouldn't lure before the appetizer. No one likes it, or maybe his training has no appetite suppressor timing. I had a grilled beef salad that had two things on the plate. A piece of raw, cabbage, uncut what the waiter said later, was only on the garbage, although this was a salad. (I had expected Veggies to be healthy. And the grilled steak? How sad it was, a small bunch of cut meat with a spicy water sauce. It took rice bad, but he didn't offer. There was nothing on this plate next to the small pile of cut beef and the indefinite cabbage. For $14 or $15, that would be near $20 with taxes and tip. What a Siam Joke. What a literal outline to sell as badly presented foods as their cut beef salad, but their photos on their website are carefully staged, not like the actual food. I'll never trust this place again. What a joke, what a demolition, what a bad service, what a bad waiter, what a deorganized kitchen (can not get orders together and just what bad air conditioning. What a loser of a restaurant that is! I wish I had taken a photo of the moderate meal that was put before me."
