cool place to chill with friends, good atmosphere

by nahli79

i went to one of my friend's dinner parties one night at MIK, and i was greeted by a friendly hostess who led me to our table near the window. my friends and i were busily talking for awhile before finally ordering drinks, appetizers, then our entrees. they didn't rush us and just came to check up on us once in awhile. they have a wine list with interesting concoctions like the lychee and guava sakes. it was sweet and mild. mmm! my friend helped us order the food, and for appetizers i tried the crispy kitchen rolls, black and white sesame tofu and tamarind shrimp salad. the kitchen rolls are indeed crispy and small enough to pop in your mouth! as for the tofu, they stack them on each other so it looks like a pyramid of cubed pieces sprinkled with their ingredients - it is fun to eat. for dinner, we all shared the kitchen fried noodle, stir fried steak cubes and crab fried rice. the kitchen fried noodle is crunchy with lots of seafood and veggies on it, the steak cubes are quality flank steak and was marinated well, and the crab fried rice had good wok power put into it. there were a lot of crabmeat and tasted really good. we were so full after dinner, but they gave us flan as complimentary dessert. they're so nice! great decor, sweet waitress, i will come back again.

• Pros: FOOD, staff, ambiance
• Cons: Parking is across the street, to the left of the white building.

Terrible Food, Ridiculously Expensive! Don't Go There

by nt2008

The food is very expensive compare to other Vietnamese restaurants and the food is not that tastety. If you want good Vietnamese food, try Green Leaf or Tamarind Tree instread. You will get delicious food for about half the price they charge you at Made in Kitchen.

Would not recommend it to anyone.

• Pros: nice decoration
• Cons: expensive, bad food, bad service

Great food and 1/2 price wine!

by dftc

This place has great food and 1/2 price wine. The kitchen even made a special vegetarian dish for my wife which was fantastic. Give it a shot, you will be happily surprised.

• Pros: 1/2 price wine and really good food
• Cons: street parking, what else.
