We were a group of 11, and I had to say our experience was very similar to another reviewer here, (Elite Marlane R.) The guy punk white dude taking our order was also the one bringing out the food, and his attitude was honestly shocking. When we politely asked if we could switch coffee to Coke, he immediately said no in a loud, irritated tone, saying Coke costs more than coffee. For us, the price difference wasn't even an issue, it was the way he spoke to us that felt disrespectful. At one point, I was just looking toward the door, and he suddenly asked me, "What are you looking at?" in a loud voice, as if I was staring at him. It was uncomfortable and unnecessary, especially since it drew attention from everyone around. Despite the poor service, we still made the effort to clean up after ourselves, busing our plates and making sure the table was neat before leaving. To the owner of Thai Noodle Express, I hope you can train your staff on how to properly treat customers. Good service goes a long way. On top of everything, the Pad Thai did not taste authentic. Very disappointing overall. I wouldn't recommend this place based on our experience.

The service is simple but good, it's always the same lady working and she is just really nice- doesn't bother you too much but you don't have to track her down if you need anything, she's good at keeping her eye on the room. My absolute favorite dish is their mongolian beef, it's amazing. Heavy on the onions which i like and always in incredibly tender. I got it as an entree in the photo below, but if you order it on the dinner special you still get a hefty portion, with a huge mound of rice (try the veggie fried rice), this AWESOME cream cheese rangoon, and a choice of hot & sour soup or egg drop soup. I highly recommend their egg drop soup, it is hands down the best egg drop soup i have ever had. it's the perfect viscosity with green onions and little tofu pieces, and it has a nice sesame nutty flavor to it. Please come try this place! It's as good as the reviews say :)

So many wontons, meat and veggies in mine and a ton of shrimp and veggies in his. I really like that they have many options for lunch and old school family dinners. The service was fast and welcoming. Such a contrast to the service at the last Chinese restaurant we went to recently. If you are a wonton soup aficionado like me, go check out Hong Kong Inn's.

OK, the redeeming factors here are the service and staff. Everyone was so friendly and accommodating that I wouldnt have minded the food. But service was also pretty fast.. So after hitting that Davis traffic up here, I was just ready to eat. Ambiance is a meh... Can't complain, place was clean, and organized. Restrooms were clean also and did the job. As for the food... It's great for a quick fix... If you're hungry, these dishes are massive for what it's worth. I wanted to try the seafood rice roll and it was an interesting take. I was confused but amused by this attempt. A lot of shrimp... But I read in the reviews some had scallops as well?? Not mine. My issue is we also ordered the noodles and it all tasted the same. Maybe that might away my review up a star or few. But by the time I got through leftovers, it was a lot of the same thing... Keeping this review for now...but I'm always open for second chances.

Yay! Our new favorite lunch place on Main Street!…read more We just stopped by last weekend, we've been wanting to try this place out but it just hadn't happened.... Last Monday we decided to have lunch there, one of our regular places is closed Mondays and this place was open so we checked it out...and we're SO SO glad we did! Atmosphere was nice and server was very friendly from the moment we walked in. First thing I noticed; $5 mimosas!! I asked if they did anything other than orange juice and yes, they had several other options so I had the cranberry version. Delicious! I went with their mac and cheese, my partner got the basic hamburger. Mac and Cheese -- definitely very bacon forward, much more than I prefer. That being said, I still liked it, it also had sour cream and green onion on top. Bacon lovers will LOOOVE this version, there is LOTS of it and every bite you can taste it. Normally I prefer my mac & cheese with no bacon or just a bit here and there, I prefer to taste more of the cheeses.....again, it still tasted good, its a good serving and I ate half and had enough to save for the next day at work. Creamy and well made, again I just prefer to taste more cheese than bacon. I wouldn't order this again but like I said, a bacon lover will LOVE this version. Now, my partner's burger was Incredible. We are PICKY with our burgers, and we both thought this one was fantastic. Big, and great ratio to the bun. He ordered it medium and asked for "a little char" and they made it perfectly. I took a bite and yeah, I'd order that for sure. The fries were great, too. Overall we were super happy with our lunch, I thought it was priced fairly as well. We will definitely be back!!

I'll give 2* because the food (when it came) was great…read more We've been to Franny's a couple times before and had O.K. service and good food. The pitfalls of the restaurant seem to be entirely the service. Most recently we went to Franny's on Mother's Day. We had reservations and walked in, on time. We were initially sat in a nice booth in the front of the restaurant. It was my wife and I plus our 2 kids, the table size seemed appropriate. After being sat, we sat without talking to a server for 10+ minutes, not even getting waters. Eventually, when someone did come, it was a waitress/hostess telling us that there had been a mix up, and we needed to move. We weren't excited on the idea, as we were happy where we were, but we moved to the back of the restaurant. This time we sat for 15 minutes without being acknowledged by any wait staff. At this point it is 9:25 and we've been seated for 25 minutes without even water. Finally a waitress comes, and takes our drink order, and our food order as we'd definitely had ample time to look over the menu. About 9:50 the food arrives. My wife and kids' food comes and is great. My food comes and looks off, and the waitress tells me that the kitchen accidentally made me a "veggie" scramble instead of the chorizo that I had ordered, but that she'd get me some bacon and all was well. I asked what was in the veggie scramble and was told it has mushrooms, which is a hard pass for me. She told me she could have what I had actually ordered made but it would "take a long time". I said O.K. - what else was I going to do? Finally it comes, and my wife is done eating, and the kids are close, so, I asked for it to be "boxed up". The waitress rolled her eyes and set to the task. I'm not a restaurant snob - but I really expected an apology or something to be "comp'd" due to the rough experience, but nope, full bill and no apology. Regrettably, despite Franny's being a local joint and having good food, we won't be back.

Besides being a great bar it also caters to families. The server here was excellent. She was genuinely very friendly, had great suggestions, and checked in on us just the right amount of times through the dinner. My wife and I shared a few dishes. The nachos here were different, but really fun and flavorful. They use kettle chips and put a kitchen sink of toppings on it. It's creamy, spicy, and the meat on it is very tender. My wife loved the Berry salad, and I also enjoyed the Bahn Mi Tacos. The Bahn Mi tacos had a Korean style pork on them that was very tender and juicy. The slaw on the side added a good crunch. My daughter had a kids cheese pizza and a hot dog. She was very happy!

I'm giving it 3 of 5 stars primarily based on the lackadaisical, glib and unresponsive service. The restaurant wasn't terribly busy on a Monday night. We arrived, were seated immediately, but had to wait for some time to place drink orders. The waitress finally dropped off a stack of menus and plopped a jug of water on the end of the table. Nearly had to go inside to ask for drink service before a waiter finally showed up. Had to return inside to remind him we were ready to order dinners. The server's glib attitude was off-putting and he just didn't seem to want to be there. Food was good, but veal temperature was tepid, while the lasagna was quite hot. Seems the plates came out a different times. We may return and give them another chance. There's a dearth of good restaurants in Placerville these days and we'd like a good Italian cucina to thrive. But really, drop the attitude and make service a priority.
