4 /5 Jophiel Sumalileng: I visited The Plank with my boyfriend around 9:30 PM on Valentine’s Day, and as expected, the place was packed. Luckily, my boyfriend managed to book us a table. We were seated at the high chairs in the front — a bit uncomfortable for me since I’m short (lol), but once the food came out, it was worth it.
The Valentine’s specials looked nice, but we ordered from the regular menu. The food arrived surprisingly fast …about 10 minutes after we ordered, which was impressive considering how busy it was.
My boyfriend got the Banh Mi Meatloaf, and it was incredibly soft and flavorful. 9/10
I ordered the Braised Short Ribs, and they were so tender and delicious. The brussels sprouts and mashed potatoes were also amazing. 9.5/10
for the dessert we got monkey churros - 6/10
The bathroom was really spacious and super clean, which I appreciated, and the overall ambiance was so nice and cozy, even with the Valentine’s crowd.
Overall, despite the packed night and slightly uncomfortable seating, the food, service, and atmosphere made it a great experience. I’d definitely come back!
