| - 2nd visit tonight. I'm still trying to figure out why so many people are raving about this place. I suppose I must be ordering the wrong menu items.
I do have to give them props for promptness now, though. Our food came out 13 minutes after we ordered. Also, we made a reservation, and despite the place being packed, we were seated within 10 minutes.
I had the shrimp pad thai. Meh. Only about 6 rather small, tasteless shrimp, and a TON of rice noodles. No peanuts, either, as per the menu. I guess they ran out of peanuts.
Wife had the lobster tail; she said it was good.
We shared the coconut pie for dessert. Honestly, I'd rather have a slice of coconut cream pie at Eat 'N Park.
Had to track down the waiter to get a drink refill.
It was interesting to note, as we were sitting there, we had TWO passerby customers offer us their extra $10 off coupons. Does everyone in this place have a coupon?
Plan to give them a 3rd try. I'll order yet something different.
To anyone who thinks their Bang Bang Shrimp is the greatest thing since sliced bread, here's a tip: make your own at home. Go to Wholey's and get yourself a bag of GOOD shrimp, then find the copycat recipe online. A lot cheaper and a WHOLE lot better. I have ordered shrimp dishes on both of my visits here, and my personal opinion is the quality of the shrimp could be a LOT better.
