Feedback
Disappointing experience at this restaurant. Upon arriving, we were left waiting for 5 minutes before being seated, despite the lack of crowds. Finally seated, we waited even longer for water. When the server arrived, I asked for a recommendation on a dish without beef or pork, only to be met with a list of all such options instead of an actual recommendation. This was my second visit with subpar service, making me question if the food is worth the trouble.
The staff at this restaurant is fantastic, the food is delicious, and the ambiance is wonderful! I savored every bite and found the dishes perfect for sharing with friends. The charcuterie board is unique, and I particularly loved the variety of side pickles, especially the garlic and garlic scapes.
My husband and I tried the Signature Big Taste lunch at Foreign Concept today. I was pleasantly surprised by the kitchen and staff's willingness to accommodate changes to the set menu to cater to my pregnancy, despite being very busy. They even provided a non-alcoholic drink option instead of the wine pairings. It was our first time at Foreign Concept and we were impressed by the atmosphere, delicious food, and great service. We will definitely be returning!
I like this restaurant! Went for Mother's Day Dimsum not usually on the menu) and it was excellent! Owner came over to recommend a couple of items, very attentive. Great weekend fare! Intend to go back for the regular menu experience.
