| - Ok so I booked Fring's for Mother's Day because I love my mama and this place is so hyped up (and closing down soon). If this were an exam, I'd give a passing grade of 65%. First, the service is sort of odd: they were oddly stilted at the door and the servers speak really fast so I'm not even sure what you just said? Friendly, though. Second, the food was hit or miss. We started with the chicken baos: good but would not order again. The cheeseburger spring rolls were the novelty item we decided to get. I cut mine open and it was hollow...it was like I got a brief glimpse at the cheesy beef supposedly on the inside. The truffle Parmesan fries were VERY good, until you get to the bottom of the cone that is. Now, the mains. My dad ordered the chicken and Hong Kong style waffles: we are very familiar with HK waffles and these were soggy and frankly, I can find better at a Chinese food court. The chicken, however, was fried nicely and juicy. I ordered the gnocchi and no complaints here - it was delicious! My sister's short rib tacos were small and inedible. Should have returned them back to the kitchen. My mom ordered the tuna tartare: it's nicely paired with the sesame chips but honestly, the tartare is nothing we haven't tasted before. Meh. Oh also, ambience is quite dark (as expected) and there was a slightly lingering musky/urine-ish scent (not expected). If you're wondering where that famous neon sign is, go to the bathroom, you'll see it.
