| - I walked away feeling deeply dissatisfied with the meal and taken advantage of. Here is why:
1. NOWHERE in the menu does it state that rolls are tempura-laden. I ordered Qi Combo 1, described as: "spicy salmon, spicy tuna, yam". I thought "well, isn't this a pleasant assortment of light rolls". I knew "yam" would likely be tempura, but others on the table would peck at that. Those delicious salmon and tuna rolls would be all mine... nomnomnom. Well, when the tray showed up, it was just one mass of orange: tempura batter covered in spicy mayo. It was even impossible to tell what each roll was. I talked to the waitress and was even more appalled:
- Me: "Oh, the menu did not say that these were all tempura, I cannot eat tempura..."
- Waitress: "Everyone that comes here is a regular, so everyone knows these are tempura..." Walks away without apology or solution...
Writing a menu assuming you will not get any new customers that need details on what they are ordering seems ridiculous to me. Tempurizing everything, even more ridiculous. It's fine, this new customer will NOT become a regular.
2. My boyfriend ordered the Qi Boat A, which was priced at $22. The waitress delivers the Small Boat, priced at $45. We clarify that (1) this is not what we ordered and (2) it's absurd that we could eat that much food, the waitress said "ohhh, next time you know..." and again walked away without apology or solution. The boat contained * again * about 50% deep-fried items... I resorted to eating the daikon garnish.
Don't come hungry. Don't come celiac. Don't come period.
