Cilantro Asian Bistro (Hallandale)

This review is purely for the seemingly newly implemented policy of having the bussers hover around your table like flies at a picnic. The food is 10/10, the servers and waiters are also 10/10, just the right amount of attentive without being overbearing. The bussers on the other hand, don’t know what to do with themselves besides, keep their hands behind their back and ask you if you’re done with your meal when they clearly see that there’s food on the plate. Not saying they're rude or anything they're nice but the constant hovering? Super awkward and ruins the atmosphere while you’re eating. Not sure if management told them to act busy or what but it ain't working and just makes the whole vibe weird. Again the food is 10/10 and the waiters have always been great. I’ve been coming here for years and this seems to have started a few months ago and it’s gotten increasingly more annoying each time, now with alternating bussers coming to your table every 2 minutes and asking you if everything is alright and trying to take stuff on the table even if you’re not done.

Attentive and informative servers. Fresh sushi and sashimi was good, and hope next time the chef will use a cutting style called hira- zukuri, especially with the tuna and salmon we ordered. It would have been easier on the pallet. The Thai food was very good, especially the soup.

DONT EAT AT THIS PLACE ITS DANGEROUS! And they have horrible customer service that doesn’t care about clients at all.

I have been going to Cilantro for couple years. The quality of food was getting worse but now it’s HORRIBLE!

We went to this restaurant and all of my legs, my purse and my phone case turned blue because of chemicals they use to clean tables and seats. Sushi were over fried and horrible, ramen had expired chicken.

We called them 2 times and we came to talk to the manager in person about this horrible experience we had.
The manager doesn’t speak English. The owner of this place and customer service team offered us a $20 discount after we left them a claim about horrible food and dangerous chemicals that destroyed my purse, iPhone case, dress and skin.

Horrible food and customer service. Never go!

Very disappointed. The prices have gone up and for the extras the chef does what he wants one day he says five dollars the other day he says $15. And to finish at the last order, we got sick because of fish that wasn't fresh. it was my favorite restaurant for a long time. since the new management, it's not the same anymore.

Food was good. Would visit again

We went for the lunch special ?. Ordered a few entrees and Panang curry ?. It was good ?. Only thing is to clean the dust from the things attached to the wall ?. It's not easy to clean the spikes, sure, but there are literally blobs of dust dangling down ?

Fine? No… this place was exquisite, the food was by far amazing, my wife and I came into this restaurant blindly because we were studying next door and got hungry. Their chicken wonton soup was by far the best I ever had, a flavor I had been looking for ever since I was a child, and finally I find chefs that can nail that flavor. Fragrant, clear, earthy, seasoned, etc. this soup is really to die for our waiter mark delivered professional service to us and Justin as well, answered kindly every question we had regarding the menu. We will definitely be coming back. Give those men a round of applause??

Vegetarian options: They offer options such as vegetable gyoza, vegetable tom yum, many of their soups and curries have vegetarian options.

Parking: The whole plaza has plenty of space and since big lots closed next door there is even more space

Kid-friendliness: The atmosphere and the kindness of the workers just tells me they would be great with children

Wheelchair accessibility: You can roll right in
