Good food bad service is right!

by kimberly J

I have to agree. The food is good, but the service is horrible. You have to wait so long for refills and if you have a question or need something, better to stand up for the waitress to actually come over.. Seems like they don't even care or maybe just always understaffed..

  • Pros: good food
  • Cons: bad service

GREAT food . . . BAD service

by HybridPally

The food tasted great, but the portions are somewhat on the small side. Now, I don't ask for much and am mostly content with what I have and try to give people the benefit of the doubt, but the woman serving my table was horrible. She always had a scowel on her face, constantly ignored my table, and it seemed she serviced tables better if she thought she was going to be tipped well, which really is a pitty, because I have been known to tip up to 30% based soley on service. (It also shows how one should never judge a book by its cover). I think I can say I get better service at the DMV!! In any case, the atmoshphere was cozy and I still marvel at how they managed to fit all those tables in there. I do recomend trying the food, because it is delicious, but only if you have a few (9-12) extra bucks to drop for small portions and bad service.

  • Pros: Delicious Food
  • Cons: Small portions and very bad service

Terrific Thai Food in Hell's Kitchen

by PasadenaKat

After driving past this restaurant for years, I finally decided to go last weekend for lunch. Boy, was I missing out. I must say, the Thai food is better than Bobaworld/Noodle World. It's just more flavorful and the dishes really stand out. As for the service, the waitress was very friendly and gracious. The only problem was, she was the only person waiting on the entire dining room. I say dining room, because the restaurant looks sort of like someone's dining hall, with tables of four along the walls, and long tables in the middle of the room. They need new high chairs. Oh yes, it seemed like Chef Ramsay was barking up orders in the kitchen, and the one waitress (bless her heart) was running around in "Benny Hill" mode, trying to make everyone happy. Yes, the meal was pricey, the service was fair (amazing enough), but the food was so delish! Try the braised green beans and the House Special (egg noodles with duck). Go during off-peak hours to avoid the "Benny Hill" antics.

  • Pros: Food, parking lot, flexible with spices
  • Cons: Understaffed, pricey, antiquated high chairs

It use to be good

by fredthai

been a while since I've been to Min's. Went 9/13. Use to love it. Now, it's average. Portions are cut in half. I had to get my own napkins. Service was poor and we were the only ones there at the time. I make Pad Thai at home and mine is better. So disappointed Not worth the price $$

  • Pros: Could return to it's roots
  • Cons: food is average service poor
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
