Was Moji N at Phi Yen a mag?

First time visit for us and we loved just about everything we ordered. Large selection on the menu, casual atmosphere, tables spaced well so it doesn't feel like you are dining with strangers. Service was good and one of the chaps had a great sense of humor. Great that you can BYO wine also.

What Moji N dislikes about Phi Yen:

We dined on 14th March and booked via their website about a week before our proposed booking date, which is an email booking system. Don't bother doing this as they DO NOT RESPOND. It occurred to me the day before we dined that they hadn't responded (I asked them to confirm the booking in my email). 7th April I then received an email saying that my email to Phi Yen was not read. Terrible lack of service... Service on... View all feedback.

누들샐러드 꼭드세요 두번드세요 저는매주갈것임 Definitely here's my new Vietnamese favorite. Location's may be a bit far though, I've found it flawless particularly for the food quality. Big portion and more importantly, tasted soooo nice. Rice noodles salad; Highly recommendable for people seeking for something not hot in a hot weather. I'll go for it weekly till the end of the summer. Cheers. PS; no split bill, extra charge(higher than normal) when paying as one person.

We had a nice dinner at this Vietnamese restaurant, and the food was quite tasty. My wife and I ordered prawn rice paper rolls, a bowl of seafood noodle soup, stir-fried beef, and a boiled banana in coconut milk for dessert. The dessert was a delightful surprise, as I don't often come across it in other Vietnamese eateries. The restaurant is large and spacious, making it a great choice for families with kids. The atmosphere was enjoyable—it struck a good balance, feeling neither overly expensive nor cheap.

The Peking duck was excellent! The beef pho was also delicious, and it wasn't overly salty. I will definitely be back!

The food was excellent. The broken rice with pork chop was delicious, with the pork chop being barbecued to perfection and infused with a smoky flavor. The noodles had a great chewy texture, which I really enjoy. The salad portions are generous, making them perfect for sharing, and the stuffed chicken wings are large enough to share as well—one wing is enough for two people. The fried chicken and the pork and beef skewers were also very tasty.

This family-style restaurant in town has the seafood in fish tanks. We had the most delicious crab in tamarind sauce. The sauce had the tamarind fruit in the sauce. Messy to eat but very delicious. We also had wonderful cuttlefish in garlic sauce. Great dishes.

Near our accommodation, we picked this restaurant after reading reviews on TA. Very glad we did. The food was excellent, particularly fresh and clean tasting and the service friendly. I returned another evening on my own and had a fantastic Pho which was delicious.

Terrible lack of service... Service on the day we dined was also lacking. Everything we needed, even to order our food we had to wave someone down. The food was still good. So I have rated our overall experience as average due to the Zero customer service.

Just had a delivery on UberEats. Don't bother, sauce had mailed cause they did not bother to cling wrap it. Value is better elsewhere. Not doing this again!!!!

Street ticket parking ; We ordered the vegetarian spring rolls which were delicious and came with a very tasty dipping sauce. Wok fried satay chicken on lettuce, vegetarian curry, vegetarian fried rice, egg noodles with beef and onion and all these meals were very tasty and very moreish. We also ordered the half crispy duck which we felt was very moist but a lot of bones and fat which might just be typical of duck! Would we dine here again? Absolutely..

This is a tough place to rate. Friendly enough service and a decent setting. Can be very loud if you’re stuck near one of the ten seater round tables. Dishes are usually a good size and are reasonably priced. I’d prefer to see a smaller number of dishes done really well rather than hundreds of options.

DO NOT GO if you had any dietary requirements. I have irritable bowel syndrome and SPECIFICALLY ASKED FOR NO ONION AND NO GARLIC AND THEY GAVE ME A MEAL WITH ONION IN IT. USELESS STAFF

We chose this restaurant from reading previous reviews but were disappointed with the food. The prawns were frozen, not fresh and this was so disappointing. The other dishes were OK but not amazing as we'd hoped. I don't think anyone from our group actually finished their plate of food. The restaurant was clean, the service was good and they served alcohol which was nice. We were a group 5 adults and were placed on a large round table with 8 seats ... It felt too big for our family and the cosiness was lost. It was a Friday night at about 8pm when we arrived so certainly not busy. Just surprised they didn't have more varied table size options... plenty of square tables for 4 though. Would we return? No, sorry.

I have been going here for work lunches for about 3 years. I have never had a bad dish and I have tried nearly all of them! I love their broths and their special fish sauce mixture you get with noodle salads! My work loves it too feels like there is something for everyone!

I came here for dinner with a group of friends, and it was delicious.You cannot go wrong with the crispy spring rolls just as good as the ones I had in Vietnam. The chef specials on the menu are definitely worth having a look at!It is off the beaten path a smidge and I say beaten path in relation to people in city, it's just not on the Main Street, but it's around the corner from it. This place is totally worth it!
