    Love Mot Hai Ba! Always a fantastic experience and the food - Devine! Audrey was our person and she was AMAZING! Pointed us to try some new things and her suggestions were perfection! Celebrating 34 yrs of marriage and in Mot Hai Ba’s impeccable ways honored us with some bubbly and a Polaroid snap - appreciate it 🩷

    Some of the best food I’ve had in a while. Really enjoyed the tight quarters cocktail. Highly recommend the beef short rib.

    Excellent cocktails. Creative appetizers. Solid entrees. Spice levels a bit dumbed down for the audience. Overall great service, experience and good vibe. Somewhat aggressive prices for some entrees given remote location and basic ambience. Hope they can continue their success,

    Best restaurant experience in Dallas in years. Everything was so fresh and delicious. The crispy rice cake knocked it out of the park.

    Went in solo dolo and the service was very good and very personable. A couple of other servers came by and started sparking conversation and that was great. The food was absolutely delicious and the drinks. I heard about this place from my brother who is a excellent cook and chef, drove here from North Richland hills which is about an hour away. Absolutely recommend coming here. Thanks.

    When I drove up to this place I said: That can't be it. The restaurant is tucked behind a gas station and very easy to miss. But once inside everything changes. What a wonderful restaurant! Food is exceptional - service is warm and buzzing. My new favorite restaurant in Dallas!
