This time we ordered chicken wings (the combo with fries) and milk teas and things went sideways. The drinks were made well in advance of the food and they just sat to the side behind the counter, no one called our order out so we could get them and enjoy them. The wings took 25 minutes to make (we were the only ones in there!!) and we took them to go. When we opened up the container there were no fries. I looked at the menu and we paid for the combo. SUPER disappointed in the attention to detail and quality.

The dining area includes dinner tables, lounge seating, sofas, board games, and a complimentary water station. We ordered a wing combo, lumpia, and passion fruit tea. Thanks to fellow yelpers we ordered the Korean Bbq wings and they did not disappoint. The Korean Bbq wings are hands down the best wings on island. Perfectly seasoned with a hint of crunch. The lumpia was meaty and served with a side of sweet chili sauce. The passion fruit tea was delicious. Minus one star for cold fries. Will definitely return for wings and tea.

I have never left a negative review for a restaurant in my life, but I felt like this needed to be…read moresaid. I've spent time in Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi, and was more than excited to finally get a Vietnamese place back in Oak Harbor. I ordered the shrimp fresh spring rolls, pork banh mi, and beef vermicelli bowl. After dipping my spring rolls in the flavorless peanut sauce, the first bite overwhelmed my senses with the taste and smells of cooked shrimp that had been left in the baking sun for hours. I'm not sure how they recreated this flavor in late February in Oak Harbor. I tossed the spring rolls after the first bite. Next was the banh mi, which I thought would be the star of the show after seeing they made it the OG way with pate'. After biting into it, I was met with the shock of being dunked in an ice bath by the cold slices of fatty pork. Not room temperature, but refrigerated cold. It was one of the most unappetizing things I've ever subjected my mouth to. I popped it into the microwave for 30 seconds and it was about as good as it sounds. At this point in my culinary journey, my confidence in the vermicelli bowl was quite low. After pouring the room temp (Swanson's chicken broth??) onto the bowl I could only take a few bites before tossing this as well. I ordered 3 of the 4 non-dessert items on the menu (didn't try the pho) and all of it was served with room temperature or below meat (Danger!). Needless to say I spent the next few days in the bathroom as my body needed to expel the harmful bacteria. I also do want to say that my order was for pickup and I ate them within 10 minutes of being served to me. These were definitely not plated warm. After a $47 bill (they charged me a $1 fee for each item that I got to go ) I realized I should have just gone to Naung Mai if I wanted anything resembling an authentic SE Asian culinary experience here in Oak Harbor. The one good thing I can say about Trinh's Corner is that whoever is creating the menu is on top of the social media food trends. They serve a biscotti croffle, which is a desecrated croissant covered in preserved processed sugar. All the rage on TicToc right now, although I'm not sure how they will pivot when the fad dies down in 6 months. #stillwaitingforgoodfoodinoakharbor

I have never had Pho or any other Vietnamese dishes before and Oak Harbor had its first Vietnamese…read morerestaurant open a few weeks ago. So I decided to give it a try. I ordered the Chicken Pho and also Chicken Bahn Mi. I was very pleased with my order and thoroughly enjoyed my lunch at Trinh's Corner on SR 20 in Oak Harbor. The pho was awesome, and this from someone that typically does not like soups. The light broth was tasty and the chicken was tender. The owner came by my table and welcomed me to his restaurant. I told him that I had never had Vietnamese food before. He told me that typically the diner would dip the chicken slices (or whatever protein) in a mix of sriracha and hoisin sauce. But he cautioned that it would be spicy. I assured him that I love spicy and proceeded to take his advice! The bahn mi was also incredibly yummy. While the pho had slices of chicken the bahn mi had cubes of chicken, as well as slices of cucumber, carrot, onion, and jalapeno, with spring onion and cilantro. The restaurant was very clean, bright, and airy. The staff is friendly, polite, and helpful.

It's a no for me, dawg…read more I really wanted to like this place because we don't have any real boba shops around. So I was excited to support. But if you think this is boba tea, I'm sorry.. you've been lied to. My boyfriend and I ordered the PP Tea (Peach Passionfruit... and yes, the name is odd) 50% less sweet. Oh boy.. The drink tasted aggressively chemically and syrupy. Not sweet-cute. Not refreshing. More like melted Jolly Rancher with a splash of Red 40. I also asked about ingredients because of dietary restrictions, and the cashier (she was young) couldn't really answer basic questions about what was in the drinks/toppings. If you have allergies or restrictions, that's something to keep in mind. I wanted this to be good soooo bad. I love seeing more diversity in food/drink options here. But this just wasn't it. Hopefully they improve. But for now I'll stick to making the drive out of town for my boba fix. rip Edit after owner response: For context, I did order 50% sweetness. The issue wasn't that it was "sweet" it tasted artificial. I appreciate the acknowledgment about staff training regarding ingredients. That part matters.

I've been here several times and each time I left thinking it would be my last. My intention is not to dump on a small business so I'll do my best to offer a sincere critique. Ambiance: No music, mostly empty shelves, sparse selection of baked goods, feels a bit empty--like they're going out of business. Any one of these could be overlooked but combined they make for a poor experience. Food/drink: Coffee is on par with what's around here. You won't find specialty roasts or fancy techniques, but it's good. If you're looking for fancy-pants coffee you'll have to head to Pelican Bay bookstore in Anacortes. The baked goods I've tried are, unfortunately, underwhelming. I typically go for their gluten free options and have found them to have textures that are too grainy with flavors on the bland side. The cookies are fine, the gluten free scones are quite bad--flavorless, super dense and hard, not crumbly, kinda sticky. This was the only baked good I've ever tossed. I have yet to try their pies or cakes. Their regular cookies are pretty good but are a bit pricey for the size. Staff: The staff seem a little awkward and shy. I prefer a friendly customer experience. I've only had one visit here where the staff made an attempt at small talk. Usually they stay out of sight. Someone else might like this, it's just not for me. Final thoughts: I'm giving Amaya's 3 stars not because I think they've necessarily earned them, but bc I want them to succeed and I've only been here 4 or 5 times so I don't have a robust experience sample. I hope they do well and would still encourage a visit. We need more small businesses. I would, however, discourage the gluten free scones. Avoid them at all costs
