Cholon - Meridian Station

Jack, was the most knowledgeable attentive server we have ever had. The food was excellent!!!

Went here the other night and was able to grab a spot at the bar quickly. At first the service was on point, but it fell apart as soon as we got our drinks. The kitchen 's timing or how the bartenders entered our order left something to be desired. We ordered our starter and entrees at the same time since we knew what we wanted but my husband 's noodle entree came out within minutes of us ordering before our starter dumplings. He didn 't want to eat his meal before I got mine, so we focused on the dumplings once they came out (another 10 mins later). I had asked for an ETA on my entree and felt dismissed when the bartender just stated that it takes a while . I ordered chicken satay with cabbage cups there is no reason it should take as long as it did are you marinating the chicken to order? My food didn 't come out for a solid 20 minutes after we had the dumplings and by that time my husband 's food was lukewarm at best. Just totally baffling lack of attention on timing and service for a place that describes itself as high end. Was the food good? Yes. Was the meal worth $140 before tip? No way. We did tell the host about our experience on the way out and once again felt dismissed. He told us things are served family style and that someone should have told us that (they didn 't). That still doesn 't explain why an entree would come out well in advance of a starter. With so many other great options in downtown we won 't be coming back.

Great place. A little expensive but fun and good food. We ate the appetizers mostly which were tasty and different. Goid service.

The food is OK, just a big OK, no great, not bad, and for this big OK I think the food is overprice. But it’s just my opinion.

Jack, our server, was a delight. We had an important client dinner with 8 people and he recommended the chefs menu where he chose what we'd be eating. This allowed us to focus on enjoying our meal, and enjoy we did! Everything he brought us was delicious. Our drinks were never empty, empty plates didn't hang around on the table, and he answered our questions with pleasure and personality. Amazing job everyone!
