Golden Bell

I have been to this Vietnamese restaurant a few times and i must say, the ONLY reason i go is for the bbq pork salad rolls.
This place has the absolute worst spicy seafood noodle soup I’ve ever had. It’s like they attempted to make it a cream based soup. It’s sad when a restaurant fails horribly at such a great dish.
That being said, their service sucks rocks.
I was going to have a order of bbq pork salad rolls for dinner tonight. Emphasis on ‘was’…I’m sitting in Humpty’s next door writing this review.
The restaurant was close to empty when i arrived, i stood waiting to be seated or even acknowledged for over 5 minutes before anyone came out of the back. When someone did come out the employee then ignored me refusing to make eye contact while i tried to signal her and proceeded to walk away before turning around and saying: ‘oh, you want a table?’ In a snarky tone… the restaurant was open for another 2 hours. It’s not like i came right before closing.
I turned and walked out the door, shaking my head. Guess it was too much of a bother to serve me.
Your pork salad rolls aren’t worth my business.
I won’t be back.

Had lunch here on Sunday May 17^th and just wanted to say that the food was very tasty and the portions were very generous.
Just a NOTE: the Menu pricing ON LINE
needs to be updated!!!
The Jasmine tea online says its $ 1.00, in the restaurant the Jasmine tea with a real tea bag in the pot is $ 1.50
The Vermicelli Sate Beef and Spring roll # 71B online says $ 10.75 in the restaurant its $ 11.00.
Other then the price difference… we will differently go back for more… thank you.

Thought I should update after another couple more tries… first off, these folks deserve another star to separate them from the miserable incompetent folks a block away at Lemongrass. Really, the food isn’t a whole lot better, but the staff is pleasant here and they at least get your order right.
Secondly, they do make a passable bahn mi sandwich.
