Lots of hard metal institutional seating. I guess they don't want you staying too long. Tables are man made material with glass inserts for ads. Round One currently there showing their mega Crane Zone. Chairs make horrible metal vibration sound when getting pushed in and out. Nails on a chalkboard. Upbeat popular familiar overplayed music at a reasonable volume. Bus your own tables. If you want to be waited on this isn't for you.

It was fresh out of the fryer, hot (temperature wise ) super meaty and flavorful. I thought "garlic" meant garlic powder, but this was loaded with tons of actual garlic (like you would get on garlic fries). I actually put the batter crumbs and garlic into my soup. The soup came with 5 dumplings for $7.99! There is no where in the Bay Area you can get soup for that price anymore. It was delicious. Seaweed based with green onion. I wish to know the secret recipe for this Asian soup. I just had the rest for leftovers today. :P Will definite come back again when I am at the mall. Service was excellent.

UNDERNEATH THE SAUCE…read more Rarely do I shop at Southland Mall however I was there two Wednesdays ago when I shopped at Champs Sports and Foot Locker. After shopping, for lunch I decided to eat at Adrienne's Wild Wings. I'm a sucker for wings, but I've never been to Adrienne's Wild Wings before. I asked the cashier what sauce she would recommend. She stated one of the sauces she liked was honey garlic. I ordered 10-piece combo that included ten wings, side order, and dessert. For the side order I choose tater tats while for the dessert I selected cheesecake. The 10-piece combo comes with two sauces. I choose honey butter, which is the dry rub, and honey garlic. I believe sauces should be used for flavoring not hiding. What do I mean by that? I've noticed sometimes sauces mask how dry the meat is. I decided to taste the honey butter first to see how moist the meat is inside. After taking a bite two things came to mind. First I couldn't taste the honey butter. Second the meat was moist. I tried the honey garlic. The cashier said the honey garlic was spicy. However I felt the honey garlic was spicy at all. Yet the honey garlic sauce was very flavorful. What did I like more the honey butter or honey garlic? I say this was toss up as I can taste more of the meat from the honey butter, yet I can enjoy the sauce of the honey garlic. The tater tots were disappointing as they were bland. The cheesecake was light. I don't shop at Southland Mall often. If I go back Southland Mall and become hungry for lunch I can see myself going back to Adrienne's Wild Wings.

Decent Mall, it's good to still have one in the East Bay!!…read more I usually get some good deals in JC Pennys, that might be the largest store in this mall along with Macys! There's a food court and movie theater downstairs. This mall isn't huge, decent sized to me. Sears used to be major in this mall, it even had auto center there. I remember getting tires put on there back in the day. Now it's gone, along with a lot of other stores. But there are still plenty of stores here, enough to keep this like a real Mall. And I always liked the location, right off of the 880 freeway in Hayward, very easy to get to!!!

Decent mall like the 2019 version of Newpark Mall. JCPenney and Macy's are still going strong…read moredespite most locations closed down across the bay and nationwide. I have nothing to buy here other than working out at Planet Fitness, watching a movie at Cinemark, and playing arcade games at Round 1. The food court looks dead downstairs. Not much to eat, so I have to walk outside the mall for nearby restaurants. Not sure why the Sears sign is still up when it went out of business over 7 years ago. The mall is mostly service based and conveniently located near the Southland Office Center where the Social Security Administration is. The clothing stores are mostly street wear to business casual. Pretty boring to walk around, yet convenient for Hayward and neighboring residents who don't want to drive to Valley Fair to shop.

There was one guy hosting, seating you, and taking orders, and he would forget what you asked him for, which made for a difficult experience. I asked for an extra bowl and some toppings, but I ended up having to get up myself and ask the table bussers, who were bringing water and picking up plates, for assistance with what I needed. Service: 0 stars. Food: Maybe 4 stars. But when you combine the food and service together, I'd give this place 3 stars at best.

I've been here a handful of times and for whatever reason last night broth was enhanced, protein was better quality. No wonder they have business at 9 PM whereas other places are closed or have limited customers You don't come across a lot of Vietnamese restaurants that is spacious for strollers and upgrade their drink menu. I think these are two of many reasons why this place is successful. You see multiple strollers at 9 PM, babies who definitely should be home in their crib at that hour lol. Every other table has a soda, a coffee, or a smoothie drink to accommodate their entrée. This establishment is also good at marketing themselves online. This is probably one of the few if not only Vietnamese restaurants where you can do online ordering. Overall, spacious parking lot, excellent service. They have also expanded their menu to other Vietnamese entrées that you would normally only see in South Bay authentic restaurants. overall a decent spot in the East Bay.

Everything we ordered was incredible…read more The grilled rockfish was cooked to perfection: juicy, tender, and topped with crispy garlic and capers. The grilled oysters were phenomenal! So fresh with the slightest hint of sweetness. The mushroom and yam fritters sitting on top of mint chutney completely blew me away. Such a unique and delicious combination! The oxtail with grits was another standout. A generous, hearty portion with such rich, deep flavors, absolutely delicious and very satisfying. For drinks, we had the Vietnamese iced coffee and the egg custard coffee, which wasn't overly sweet. The egg custard on top was light, fluffy, and delicious. 10/10 recommend! The service was great! Can't wait to come back and try the dinner menu.

For all the Michelin notations I would suggest more customer interaction. 3 the food was ok- not great - not bad - I will say I did like the shoshito peppers and the bon mi sandwhich - it's a shame the rest of the evening menu was not available - for that's what I see mostly recommended on Yelp. The Vietnamese coffee was ok- There was nothing special about the place- nothing that really made me think- I will be back. Kinda fast foodish when you order at McDonalds On a screen.. and then figure it out .. it maybe ok for people today - but I won't harp on that - great for introverts - so I guess it's " ok" ...
