"Delicious food and really quick service. You can tell that the ingredients are fresh and anyone can find something they will be satisfied with. I recommend the Tofu summer and spring rolls and the rice noodles with Tofu and vegan fish sauce. The homemade Yuzu lemonade is also delicious. The only downside is that there are some insects when you‘re sitting outside so I would advise you to seat inside if you‘d be bothered by that and there‘s a bit too much fosh sauce with the noodles. But other than that it was a pleasant experience and we will be coming back."

"Ich habe vor Kurzem Chum Sen besucht und insgesamt einen sehr angenehmen Abend verbracht. Die Bedienung war ausgesprochen nett und freundlich, sodass man sich sofort wohlgefühlt hat. Ein kleiner Wermutstropfen war jedoch, dass das Essen für vier Personen nicht gleichzeitig serviert wurde. Das hat den Genuss ein wenig getrübt. Nichtsdestotrotz war das Essen wirklich lecker, und das Sushi war ein Highlight – frisch, geschmackvoll und wunderschön angerichtet. Eine etwas größere Auswahl an vietnamesischen Hauptgerichten wäre toll. Das Ambiente ist zwar noch ausbaufähig, aber dennoch stimmig und einladend. Alles in allem ist Chum Sen absolut empfehlenswert, und ich werde definitiv wiederkommen."

"Ein gutes Restaurant mit hervorragendem Essen. Für Recklinghausen eine Bereicherung und eines der drei besten asiatischen Restaurants hier. Wir waren seit der Eröffnung vor einem halben Jahr drei mal dort Essen. Warum dann in Summe nur 4 Sterne? Der Service ist freundlich, aber man merkt immer noch das es an Personal mangelt und man öfters auf sich aufmerksam machen muss. Das Essen wie gesagt sehr gut, aber leider gibt es weniger vietnamesische Gerichte als zum Start, dafür viel Sushi. Das Ambiente wirkt mit dem dunkeln Echtholz und Interieur authentisch, aber leider ist laut, aus der offenen Küche dringen viel Gerüche mangels vernünftiger Abluftanlage zu den Gästen.AuchKleinigkeiten wie eine Gaderobe fehlen immer noch. In Summe würde ich 4,5 Sterne vergeben, die Gesamtbewertung ist ja nach wie vor sehr hoch."

"Chum Sen ist einfach ein Volltreffer! Sushi und Pho sind so gut, dass man sie glatt jeden Tag essen könnte. Tee und Cocktails? Absolut lecker! Der Service ist mega freundlich – man fühlt sich wie zu Besuch bei Freunden. Großes Dankeschön an das Team und die Küche, ihr macht das echt klasse! Wir kommen definitiv immer wieder – und nehmen am besten gleich einen großen Hunger mit."
