The atmosphere and decoration of Watanabe are nice and new looking. The service was not bad, but it wasn't necessarily good. The food and drinks came in good time, but the server just seemed to be dreading his time there. The food was bad. I have pork fried rice in February. In that rice were fava beans and corn. Those ingredients lead me to believe they are frozen. It was underseasoned, and just did taste like a nine dollar bowl of fried rice. Potstickers were okay, didn't appear to be made in house.

Ive been going to this place for 2 years mainly for lunch ONLY because this is the only thai place around. But NEVER AGAIN and will go out of my way to advice everyone at work the same.
The waiter did not explain anything on the menu inspite of us asking for some help on it. Typically I always tip , but this time I did not care much for the service and attitude of the waiter and decided not to Tip him. The waiter CONFRONTED us on this, followed us outside the restuarant, used abussive language with my wife and ASKED US NOT TO VISIT THE PLACE AGAIN.
I think I need not explain any further!

just wanted to comment. i started eating at kien jiang yrs ago and when ms saigon opened i went back and forth between the two. my fave is pork vermicilli and the fresh spring rolls. personally, i like mine the best, but preparation is time consuming.
having chosen ms saigon a while back because they have many vegetables, mint and lean pork, alas, they were tonite. tried kj again. fatty pork, no bean sprouts, and almost no mint.
love saigon, and they have recently totally renovated their interior............beutiful and warm.!!!!!!!!

Re: “Siam Cuisine”
I just ate at Golden Thai...supposedly the same place..new name? The complimentary soup tasted like canned chicken noodle soup...not good, the Me Krab was OK...a bit stingy on the shrimp. The red curry was delightful, crisp clean and the vegetables were perfectly done. The Pad Thai had great flavor, but mushy noodles. I would go back because I think the curries show great promise and I'd like to try the northern Thai dishes.
