H2O Oxford Oriental Cafe

I am basing my review on the food and not the service or staff. We came in after a baseball game, ordered at the counter. The menus are taped to the counter and are written in small print. There are no menus to actually hold so don't forget your reading glasses. You can't get a glass of water, all the drinks are bottled which I don't care for especially when you have 5 kids with you. The food was good but not spectacular. My pad Thai with chicken was a nice serving and delicious. The crab rangoon was average. The hot and spicy soup was good but no crunchy things to go on top. Everyone ate their food and seemed to enjoy what they had to eat. The woman that waited on us was the absolute rudest person I have ever encountered in a restaurant. No smile, no help, she actually said we should go somewhere else if we wanted salt and pepper. Shocking! The prices were reasonable. I will not be back but if you are hungry for Chinese food and can stand the rudeness go.

Diverse menu! So many yummy things to choose from. The lady who served us was so so sweet and made sure we were taken care of. They've gained themselves a regular!

We drove 20 minutes to find this place. The lady was rude when we tried to order so we left.

I am going to rate my experience on service and food. First, the service. The woman that helped us was unbelievably rude. She said they were a "to go" restaurant and clearly did not like helping customers. She grumbled over us asking for utensils, salt and pepper and when my son ask if she had eel sauce she actually suggested we go to a different restaurant. The food. The food was fine. Not exceptional and definitely not bad. Not memorable except for the terrible service. We started with 3 cups of hot and sour soup, an order of egg rolls and crab Rangoon. We all got a decent serving of soup that was served in styrofoam bowls. We are easy, that was fine with us. However, no "crunchies" to go on top. The egg rolls were good and came out warm. The crab Rangoon was fine. Not great but not bad. They were not hot like the rest of the food. Everyone ordered something different. Shrimp fried rice, 2 sides of fried rice, pad Thai and teriyaki chicken. The shrimp fried rice was my favorite. Large servings. Overall, I will not be dining here again. If you are looking for a local takeout counter maybe give it a try. If you are looking for a hole in the wall with friendly people I would skip this restaurant.

We had the Mongolian Beef special which was delicious! All the food we have tried here has been great. Folks here are very sweet and helpful.We love this place!!!

Delicious food and generous portions. Pho was fresh and fragrant with lots of bamboo shoots and noodles. Fried rice is filled with veggies too.

The food was horrible. Got General Tso chicken and egg drop soup. The soup tastes like water. The chicken was almost completely raw.

Service was great and the employee at register was incredibly nice and accommodating throughout our whole experience. Food was really good. The General Tso 's Chicken had good white meat chicken, setting it apart from other restaurants with similar cuisine in Oxford and other areas. Mississippi Crawfish Dumplings and Crab Rangoons were good. The Vietnamese Coffee was absolutely delicious, highly recommend. Will be going back.

atmosphere was ok but the food was significantly overpriced. The food was already cooked and then heated. served in disposable plates. only bottled soft drinks and bottled water. we were very disappointed.

Favorite place in oxford. Always so good and service is great. Makes me sad more people don't know about it!!!! Perfect location too
