Wow is all I can say. I?ve eaten in Vietnamese restaurants coast to coast and even in Paris. This one is one of the best. There are items on the menu that you don?t normally see in Vietnamese restaurants. Most people think of Pho when they think ofa Vietnamese restaurant. This restaurant is supposed to have terrific Pho, but that?s not what I was wanting. I?ll try thatnext time. I ordered a traditional Vietnamese meal ? something that many Vietnamese people grow up with. White rice, Cá KhoT? (Carmelized and braised catfish), Canh chua tôm (Tamarind soup with shrimp), and rau mu?ng xào t?i (Water spinach withgarlic). Everything was so good and tasted like it came out of my mom?s kitchen.

Wow, that’s all I can say. I’ve eaten Vietnamese food from coast to coast and even in Paris, and this place is among the best. The menu features dishes you don’t usually find at Vietnamese restaurants. When most people think of Vietnamese cuisine, Pho comes to mind. While this restaurant likely makes fantastic Pho, I opted for something different this time. I ordered a traditional Vietnamese meal—something many Vietnamese people grow up eating. It included white rice, Cá Kho Tộ (caramelized and braised catfish), Canh Chua Tôm (tamarind shrimp soup), and Rau Muống Xào Tỏi (water spinach with garlic). Every dish was delicious and tasted just like it came from my mother’s kitchen, bringing back...
I love LOVE LOVE Mai Lee Restaurant! I literally order almost the same thing! A Mai Tai, fried vegetable spring rolls (which is THEE best because it comes with lettuce and cucumbers and a tofu dish. My new favorite is the lemon pepper tofu dish withvegetables. Now I?ll be honest, I don?t know the Item Number nor the name, but I promise you, if you order it they?ll knowwhat it is : It?s a great location with lovely covered parking. Never a long wait to get sat nor waiting on your food. Trustme, when you visit you?re hooked : Tell them, Meghan O sent you!
I absolutely LOVE Mai Lee Restaurant! I usually order almost the same thing every time: a Mai Tai, fried spring rolls (these are the best because they come with salad, cucumbers, and a tofu dish). My new favorite is the lemon peel with vegetables. Honestly, I don’t remember the exact name or menu number, but I promise you’ll know it when you see it. The location is great with beautiful covered parking, and you never have to wait long to be seated or to get your food. Trust me, when you visit, tell them Meghan O sent you!

Oh my gosh is the food here good. Nothing was overly salty and it was all authentic. This is the first Vietnamese restaurant in Missouri that I have eaten at that exceeded my expectations. The waiter was extremely friendly as he helped us order and cracked a few jokes. The place was fairly busy, so if you get unlucky you might have a short wait. It was a shame that they ran out of banh mi as I was hoping to give it a try here. Regardless, it is my new favorite Vietnamese restaurant.
I had an amazing experience. When I arrived the place was full of people and the waiting time was 20 min. but it only ended up being like 8 minutes. The service was attentive and friendly. The food was of ultimate quality and all the flavors were justperfect! I would definitely recommend this place and will continue to go there to try more of their fantastic menu. 10 out of10!
I had an incredible experience at Mai Lee. Although the restaurant was busy and the estimated wait time was 20 minutes, I was seated in just 8. The staff were attentive and friendly throughout. The food was top-notch, with every flavor perfectly balanced. I highly recommend this place and look forward to returning to explore more of their fantastic menu. A solid 10 out of 10!
I absolutely loved this place. After being out on the street for a while, Mai Lee made me feel right at home. I tried the Bo Luc Lac, and it tasted as amazing as it looked. I also had a bowl of the beef tripe soup, which I really enjoyed. When I’m back in town, this will definitely be the spot I return to.
