| - Read all the mixed reviews of this place, and decided to try it for myself.
First impressions of the place was it looked decent on the outside, looked like a nice cafe style establishment.
As we walked closer towards the entrance, we noticed the restaurant was pretty much empty, with only two other tables seated. The doors were opened as there was no A/C.
We were seated towards the back of the restaurant with he couches and immediately noticed how dirty the floors were. There were literally garbage (used paper napkins, food bits, leaves, etc) around the area.
As we sat, one of the two tables got up and left, I think I heard a "this is ridiculous" as they left. I noted that on their table were just glasses of water and unused cutlery.
I also want to mention, that the server who seated us and took our order, had probably the least amount of enthusiasm/energy I have ever seen on someone who worked in the restaurant industry. It seemed she'd had just given up and have zero care for anything that was happening.
6:20 - We ordered. Three iced teas: Mango Tango, White Champagne Mist, and Fruit Punch. Food wise, the Fusion Burger crepe, the Great Caesar Chicken crepe, and the Oriental Shrimp crepe.
6:40 - Our teas finally arrive. They were mediocre at best. Though it was refreshing in the humid heated atmosphere.
7:15 - 2 out of the 3 dishes arrive. Like come one, no way does it take almost an hour to prepare 3 crepes in an empty restaurant. What if they were busy, I don't think the cook(s) in this place would be able to handle it.
Fusion Burger: Nothing spectacular, it is what it is, a burger in a crepe.
Caesar Chicken: Flavor was okay.
Oriental Shrimp: Salt bomb. Saltiest thing I have ever tasted. The sauce used seemed like it was literally thickened soy sauce sprinkled with sesame seeds and they used A LOT of sauce. What I found funny was they provided a side dish of extra sauce, as if you'd need it with the soggy mess of a crepe. As if they were proud of this sauce. SMH.
Definitely will not be returning. Slow service, mediocre food. I don't see this place lasting.
