So I title this date night... even though I had my six year old daughter with me. My Wife and I always go to the typical box stores with our daughter. But tonight we decided to go to Mein. Prior to this we thought the resturant was not for children. We sat in the lounge side, and were served very qucikly. The server informed us they did not have kids menus yet but outlined some kid friendly options. We ended up oredering the Mein Burger for my daughter with yam fries. My wife and I shared a edamoleh dip, salmon, and the pad siew. The bill came to 50 dollars and we had the fastest service and the food was incredible. We plan on taking a date night here without our daughter and enjoy a nice bottle of wine. Looking foward to coming back!
Despite some of the negative reviews we have heard, our party and I decided to go to Mein Street to try this past weekend... Let me tell you, we have found our new spot to add to our favourite places to go in London. WE WILL DEFINITELY GO BACK!!! IT WAS SOOO GOOOOODDD!!!
What a great place! I have eaten both lunch and dinner here on several occasions and had outstanding meals combined with excellent service. It is so nice to finally have a restaurant in London that serves really good Asian food, has a fun and modern atmosphere and a great wine list!
on a very recent dinner visit , my wife and I were amuzed by the clever, but busy contempoary interior decor, But a good restaurant must put good food on a plate to be really good. Mein Street failed on that. we started with cold rice paper wrapped beef rolls, with a very thick dip sauce, these rolls were as good as it would get. sorry no hot crisp rolls. we also had Pad Tai, mild, mundane and noodles tasted and looked more like italian fettucini pasta than Viet Pad Tai, like on flavor, very light on chicken, dullsville for sure, after that were served Butter Chicken, again dull, some rice and bits of hash brown potato and white sauce, and this was a really mild temprature , warm at best, we should have sent this back , but by now we knew were being served substandard food so wanted just to get out soon and reduce our money comittment already too high, wine was 8.95 a glass for an Arginitine red wine , that chicken was 14.00 or more?? why, was it reallly cooked by an experienced asian cook like so many good Viet and indian restauarants in LONDON ,or was a microwave meal plan in a food prep room ? all I can say is the Old regular places I go to for viet food weekly will be back on my routine , they maybe not so Up scale in the decor dept, but these guys need to put some good food in these wildly fun shaped china dishes , and turn on the lights too.
My girlfriend and I have been to Mein Street about 3 times. Every time we sit in the bar and the bartender Ryan has served us. Without a doubt the best server around. He always remembers what we ordered previously. My girlfriend and I always stay for a few hours have a couple glasses of wine and some great food. Last night we enjoyed a Pad Thai, coconut shrimp, and new to the menu an edamoleh dip. The dip was amazing! Every time we go to Mein Street we have a very positive expereince. The bill on average for the 2 of us is aroun 80 dollars with 4 drinks and 3 dishes. We love it!
