Orient Cafe

I came here with my mom before. Today, I ordered their Pho I think? Something from their new menu. The only thing I wish is it would offer two different sizes for the soup- like a full bowl or a smaller one… I don’t want to waste it and I didn’t want to take it home either. But everything is good! Their service is always friendly. The waiter today checked on me more than others have in the past when I come alone.

Opened the steamed rice to mix with the soup and found a ROACH 🪳 in it. Needless to say, I will not be ordering from this restaurant again. Thankfully, I had not tasted anything yet. Had to throw the whole order out.

I wish I could leave a better review, but my recent visit to Orient Cafe was downright disturbing. Found roach in my food. The server was extremely shocked and apologetic. The gentleman at the register was not remorseful at all, he made snarky sounds as I expressed my concern. Clearly, hygiene is not a priority here.

They give you free fried rice and they also have brown rice for an upcharge. The shrimp egg for young is slightly above average. You get three patties in your order. The general chicken tastes better than it looks. The chicken with broccoli the portion could have been about 10% more than what they actually put in the container they didn't completely fill up the container. And I think the same with the general chicken too the portion size seems a little bit smaller like you would get from a Thai restaurant. The egg drop soup was probably the most disappointing of my dish. It was kind of bland. The gravy is thick but tastes like it has a little bit too much soy sauce in it.

10 out of 10. The food is fresh and authentic. The staff is super friendly. This is definitely a hidden gem. Add this place to your list, you won’t regret.
