Excellent varied menu but a little limited in options. Amazing flavors. Don't skip the chicken wings (unless you are sensitive to fish sauce). Didn't have time for dessert but wanted them all. Grilled seafood next visit. You won't be disappointed with HaiSous

I recommend the RPM chopped salad, the oysters, the grilled octopus, the clam chowder soup and the filet. It was AMAZING! I apologize in advance I forgot our servers name, she remembered all my notes I put and explained the menu with details. She made it very special! Exactly what I wanted for my boyfriend’s birthday dinner! She was a pretty blonde girl, she’s wonderful! If anyone can give me her name I would love to recommend her to my friends if they want to dine here!
