" I was really looking forward to my visit but ended up disappointed. The pho lacked punch and the spring rolls felt stale. Service was friendly, yet the wait time was longer than expected. I really wanted to love this place as it has great reviews, but I believe other Vietnamese spots have more to offer. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Mai's Kitchen was a wonderful experience overall. The ambiance was cozy and intimate, perfect for a casual dinner. I ordered the BBQ pork banh mi and it was delicious! The bread was crusty and the flavors blended beautifully. Though the service was a bit slow, the staff were polite. Highly recommend the mango smoothie—it's a must-try! " (*Curated Review*)
