" I visited this restaurant after hearing amazing reviews, and I must say they did not disappoint! The freshness of the ingredients really shone in the dishes we tried; we had spring rolls and pho. While I did enjoy my meal, the quick pace of service was too much for my liking. I wish I could have savored each course better. Nonetheless, I will return because the food quality is worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambiance at Chez Mai Lai was just okay – nothing fancy, but clean and functional. The service has room for improvement; it felt frantic and maybe a bit too impersonal. However, the food was undeniably good, particularly the chicken curry which had great authentic flavors. If you’re after a quick meal, this place fits the bill, but don't go expecting a leisurely dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Restaurant Chez Mai Lai was a bit of a mixed bag for me. On one hand, the food was delightful, particularly the seafood dishes, bursting with fresh flavors. However, my experience with service was not the best. The staff, while friendly, seemed overwhelmed and it felt like they wanted us to leave as soon as we finished eating. Still, I would recommend it for the food alone and I'll give it another chance down the line! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came here during a busy dinner time, and despite the rush, I found the servers to be quite friendly. The menu offered a wide range of authentic Vietnamese dishes. I absolutely loved their pho and the portion sizes were quite generous. However, I did feel a bit hurried, like I was being pushed to finish. While this was disappointing, I would still recommend this place for the quality of food. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a casual spot to enjoy authentic Vietnamese cuisine, Chez Mai Lai is a decent choice. The dishes are tasty, and it’s evident they care about food quality. The only downside is the frenetic atmosphere; it can feel slightly rushed, so keep that in mind if you want to unwind. Still, the flavorful food makes it worth a shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I first visited Restaurant Chez Mai Lai on a whim after finishing a local tour. What a find! The food was a burst of flavors and true to Vietnamese cuisine. The staff treated everyone with respect, but I did feel pressured to finish quickly as the place was busy. As someone who enjoys a leisurely meal, I was torn. But I absolutely loved the shrimp curry—it was just the right level of spice! If you enjoy authentic Vietnamese food and quick service, this is the place for you. I highly recommend trying their specialty dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Eating at Chez Mai Lai was a delightful experience overall! The dishes are undeniably tasty and true to traditional flavors, which impressed me. We went during a busy rush hour, so we did experience a slight delay, but their service team handled it well. The portion sizes were generous, and I appreciate that they encourage customers to bring their own wine. A return visit is definitely in my plans! " (*Curated Review*)
