" My experience at Garlic and Chives was unfortunate. The food was prepared nicely, but it lacked adequate seasoning which turned my meal lackluster. The service was friendly but needed to be more attentive. I won’t rush back anytime soon, as I left feeling very underwhelmed. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm really impressed with the creativity at Garlic and Chives! Dishes like the garlic crab and the mango salad brought vibrant flavors that were well-balanced. They are not afraid to experiment while keeping the food authentic, which was refreshing. Service was a bit slow, but the ambiance made up for it. Don’t skip the desserts here; they’re fantastic!

" This place is a treasure! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a cheerful atmosphere and the scent of garlic. It reminded me of authentic Vietnamese home cooking. Everything we ordered was spot-on, especially the garlic noodles, which were addictively delicious. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly. I can’t wait to come back for another round of my favorites! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our family had a fantastic meal here! The kids enjoyed the crispy chicken wings, while my wife and I savored the marinades on the grilled seafood. Each dish echoed authentic Vietnamese flavors, which we loved. The service was attentive without being overbearing. Prices were reasonable for the quality of food, but it would be great if they could tweak the layout to make it a little homier. " (*Curated Review*)

" Deliciousness awaits at Garlic and Chives! The variety is impressive, and the dishes are vibrant with flavor. I particularly loved their twist on the traditional spring rolls, which brought new life to the familiar. Pricing might be on the higher side for some, but the quality compensates well. Overall, a pleasurable experience with attentive service made for a lovely evening dinner. " (*Curated Review*)
