I tend to get take out, because I don't like eating on premises. It mostly boils down to insider knowledge. But also, I don't care for this style of restaurant: where you walk up to a cashier, order, pay, get a number and wait for someone to deliver the food to your table. What don't I like? I don't like the tip line on bill. Tipping prior to service makes no sense to me. If you think differently, you are likely someone that thinks the world owes you something. And we just disagree there. The fact that a friend of mine's daughter worked at this location and frequently talked about what jerks people were for not tipping on take out orders gives me concern about a resentful service staff. Resentful servers give me the willies. Anyway, I love recognizing a job well done with a generous tip. I just can't read the freakin' future. OK OK, I know it's not just this place. The situation is rampant, stupid, and fraught with consumer guilt and anxiety.
ANYWAY! Sorry for the rant. We tend to get take out.
Darcie and I like the Spicy Chicken Salad and the Lettuce Wraps. Word to the wise for take out: For lettuce wraps you'll want to ask for a new set of lettuce cups... not the ones in cling-wrap they prepped in the morning. Those will absolutely be brown on the edges and somewhat wilted. No lie, every single time. Believe it or not they have become annoyed by my request for new lettuce cups. In return annoyance, on one instance, I asked for the lettuce cups from my To-Go bag and showed them the brown wilted lettuce. I expressed how furious I have been in the past when I have discovered that exact same poor quality on arrival at my home. They gave me new Lettuce cups.
Also, I don't like the fried rice here. Bland flavorless.
Your mileage may vary... except for the Lettuce Cups thing. 100% solid advice there.
