" After hearing so much hype, we decided to check out Alise and we weren't disappointed! The food is incredibly flavorful! Each dish was a true representation of Vietnamese cuisine. It’s spacious, with a friendly staff, although they were slightly understaffed during our visit. Still, they handled it well. The timing could have been better, as we waited a bit for our order. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant to others! " (*Curated Review*)

" After reading glowing reviews, my expectations were high. I visited Alise Restaurant and ordered their house special fried rice and a couple of appetizers. The flavors were vibrant, but the portion sizes didn't impress compared to other spots I've tried. The ambiance is fine, nothing to rave about. Service felt a bit lackluster as well—no one checked on us after the food came out. Overall, it was a decent meal, but I might explore other options next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a great family dinner at Alise Restaurant. The food was fresh and well-prepared. The papaya salad with squid was surprisingly good! Service was friendly, though we waited a bit longer than expected for our food. The atmosphere was cozy, and the restaurant was quite clean. Overall, I’d recommend it, just be prepared to be patient with the timing! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic experience at Alise! The ambiance feels warm and inviting. I ordered the crispy egg rolls and catfish soup, and they both were delightful! The wait for food is a little long, but worth it for that burst of flavor in every bite. The staff varied in their attentiveness but overall were pleasant. It feels good to find a Vietnamese spot that stays true to its roots while providing a cozy setting! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're craving authentic flavors, look no further! Alise knows how to pack a punch with their Tamarind Fish Soup, and their fried catfish is spot on! The menu features a great selection of traditional dishes that left me wanting more. Customer service was commendable, though they had a busy night. I will definitely be back to sample the rest of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Alise has a unique blend of both traditional and fusion Vietnamese dishes. I opted for the soft shell crab and a side of fried rice. The flavor was decent, but I wished it could have been more authentic. While the restaurant looked nice and clean, I felt their service could improve with efficiency. I left satisfied but didn't feel compelled to return right away. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a delightful lunch here! The servings are generous, and the variety is commendable. I tried their papaya salad, and it made me crave more! The ambiance is perfect for gatherings, though the lighting was a bit dim for my taste. Service staff were friendly but seemed spread thin during busy hours. I'd love to return to sample more from their extensive menu! " (*Curated Review*)
