   Delicious food, cozy vibe and the decor was spectacular. Our server was phenomenal and friendly, she gave Great recommendations for plates to share and wine that paired well. the music added a nice 80s vibe to the restaurant. Will come back again for sure.

   Absolutely fantastic! Food, service and ambiance were incredible. Took my parents here before the Opera and we all loved it. 10/10

   Our server was accommodating but the overall experience was mediocre. The drinks we ordered were fair - they are trying too hard. Too strong, mine was watered down, and both types of drinks did not taste right. The men drank theirs anyway. The fish was ICE cold and we sent it back - server offered to get a new one and apologized and agreed. The mushroom rolls were also cold but I was not going to complain - they were also soggy. Maybe because of how big the room is, with the air blasting, the food looses its heat. It seems like you have a lot of servers but nothing came out on time OR it just all came out at once, very quickly. The duck was fantastic but overpriced - I get it though, its a dinner for two essentially. Crab fried rice was great. Shrimp in pad thai had a weird smell to them - maybe its the rub? Or the shrimp themselves. I would have/could have ordered everything off the menu - menu is awesome. But this experience did not really suffice for the price, quality and food itself. I love QB and its restaurants and have been to many... this felt like a loss, sorry (and sad) to say.

   I’ve never written an OpenTable review before but our experience was so great I have to! Our waitress, Katherine, was fantastic! She was extremely knowledgeable and personable. She guided us through the perfect order! We will absolutely be back!

    We had a terrific experience at Twin Tails and gave it five stars, which is a rare rating for us to give. The decor is elegant. The staff was attentive without being fawning and knowledgeable and articulate. The service and pacing was perfect. The individual items are all expensive, but the portions are generous, and since we had only two entrees the bill turned out beneath 100/per person (tax and one cocktail included). We had two entrees (duck and salmon pot) , one vegetable dish (long beans), one noodle dish (glass noodles) and two souffles for four people. Eating family style, that was ample food. The duck was delicious. it was beautifully presented and sufficiently different to be interesting, as was the salmon, which had a gently spicy sauce. The long beans were interesting and attractive if not particularly adventurous; the glass noodles were glossy; both sides were precisely prepared and well seasoned. The mocha and pistachio souffles were a perfect conclusion to the meal . We recalled that the French culinary influence on Vietnam was far stronger than on Thailand, and that shows up in the sauces, which brought the food a notch above regular fare. Our quibbles are minor ones-- the noise level is too high; while the decor and window views are stunning, with central park and Columbus Circle in view, entering and exiting through an upscale shopping center is somehow bad for one's digestion!
