| - We were treated poorly from the beginning. We waited at the front door to be seated and there was no host/hostess present for 10 minutes. Finally when the hostess greeted us, she offered us a high-top table in the bar area. When we asked to be seated in the dining room, we were told that this high-top table was all that was available. Diners arriving after us without reservations, were walked right past us and seated in the dining room. The service was very bad. The bar maid in the bar area where we were seated was our server. This sole person tended bar, made drinks for bar patrons, made drinks for the other servers and rung all the checks on the register for all the servers. As a result, she had no time for us. The specialty cocktails we ordered were very expensive and tasted horrible. My dinner partner ordered a specialty cocktail named "Mekong Rest Stop". It taste just as the name suggest -- like a rest stop toilet. Do not get this drink. The food is mediocre for Asian cuisine. I have had better tasting meals at the neighborhood Chinese take-out. Our server who was also the bar maid never asked us if we wanted another round. Even stepping up to the bar, we couldn't get another drink. Of course, we were not going to get the "rest stop" thing again. We really needed something to wash down the taste of that one. We were unable to get service at the bar. Just so you know, this place is located in the Tremont area -- most of the businesses do not have a parking lot -- just street parking. Also, Tremont is a very high-crime area. I would not park too far from the restaurant. The worst thing was the very high prices we paid for such a crappy meal. One thing is for sure, we will never return to this place ever.
