Chez Bien Vietnamien - Gatineau, Quebec

This was the first time in a while that I could not finish a meal. My girlfriend and I had to send back the food because it was awful. We ordered the ginger and green onion beef and the lemongrass beef. Both were horrendous. The beef was a tasteless curled up ... mess. It didn't taste anything like it was supposed to. It was lukewarm on arrival and drenched in a grayish brownish sauce. We tried to signal the waiter so that he could take it back, but he was preoccupied by the 2 other lingering groups in the restaurant. We had been here before and the food was decent, but never this bad. We won't be returning after this debacle. Read more

DO NOT EAT HERE IF YOU ARE VEGETARIAN. They have a 'vegetarian' menu which I ordered from without question, only to be told once I was done my meal that ALL THE DISH sauces are based from CHICKEN!!! IN WHAT WORLD IS THAT A VEGETABLE? I sincerely hope they make ... real vegetarian options, or at least change their menu. Read more

I have been to this excellent Vietnamese restaurant with family and friends on more than 15 occasions in the last few years. Service has always been very good and the ambiance relaxed. Food is very good, fresh and without any pretentiousness. I remember the first time I went I didn't like ... the location and so-so decor, but don't be fooled... The menu, especially choices in the Table d'Hôte (e.g grilled shrimp and beef filet), will undoubtedly exceed your expectations for an unbeatable price. If you want to discover a honest, tasty and very affordable Asian restaurant in Hull, you cannot go wrong with this one. Read more

Picked because of other reviews. We were staying in the area and though we would like Vietnamese. Not a mistake. Great food and service. We rarely order prix -fix unless a tasting at fine dining. The set menu looked fine and gave a try. Great choice!
