Reviews for Chef Simon's Kitchen in Orillia, ON
We trusted the reviews for this place and were excited to try this place. Firstly, the price specified is wrong and most items... are actually $2 to 5 more than what been mentioned on here. The lady was very friendly and we loved the service. We had the beefpho soup and before I was able to finish it, I had to run to the bathroom! My guts were messed up from eating that soup and thenext day my bf was on the toilet too. This soup gave us a terrible food poisoning ! I wouldn't be returning and I wouldn'trecommend going there either. Great service but the food, not so much. Read more
Had a lunch with a few friends who visiting me from Toronto at Chef Simon?s Kitchen, everyone was so impressed with the... authentic Vietnamese food in our small town, Orillia. Bhai Mi Sandwich Vietnamese spring and noodle soup were so tasty, theysaid they are better than they had in Toronto. Yah, so happy to hear that! Read more
We ordered the lemongrass chicken sandwich which was delicious with lots of crunchy vegetables. The bun was so fresh! My... husband had the lemon grass pork vermicelli bowl and it was also excellent. Food was served hot and freshly made. Read more
I've come here a number of times and have always had delicious meals. Most recently had the Vietnamese sandwich combo... lemongrass Porkbelly--it's spicy. If you haven't tried it before, just think thick-cut bacon pieces. The combo also comes witha pop. Simon is still the one behind preparing the food. I got a picture of him frying the porkbelly in the skillet. The foodhas always been great here and I will continue coming back Read more
Ordered some take-out from here. Had red curry chicken and peanut sauce chicken. They were both too spicy for me and not very... flavorful. They should also pack soup items in a container that is less likely to spill when ordering out. Read more
We decided to eat here, because other reviews were so generous. We ordered over the phone at 5:45 PM and our order was only... available after 7. My wife came inside TWICE and waited excessively, as she was told to wait just a little longer. When wefinally received our food, we realized it was not cooked professionally. This is the most plain Pho we have ever had, myVienamese wife was very upset to find the broth to be flavorless. Please see the attached photos. We had Pad Thai, Pho, Tom Yumsmall soup and what appears to be a soggy-unfresh mango salad. At least it was edible. Still, no smile or apology for the wait.Thank you, Chef Cimon's Kitchen, for feeding us. Read more
Located on the Memorial Drive strip with lots of other restaurants try this cute little place for an authentic Viet/Thai fusion... experience. The Jasmine Tea was a nice way to Start things off and we shared an order of Thai Spring Rolls and an order of ColdRolls. The Tofu Pad Thai was delicious and the 2 meat combo is what my friend order with the steamed rice and General TaoChicken which is what I will order next time in. Good food relaxing atmosphere and good service. The prices were very reasonablefor the large portions they serve. Check it out! Read more
