| - I rate this place 3.5/5 overall!
Decided to give this place a try for our 7 n Half yrs together! The owners last name is actually spelled 'Chiang' so I dunno if its a type error for the restaurant...haha
Came down on a cold rainy day around 3pm and it was not busy, so lucky for us.
My gf got the lunch special where you get choice of soup of egg drop or hot n sour with the entree which she got the Mongolian beef with scallion served with brown rice. Nice to have brown rice at a restaurant, as its a healthier option. The beef actually was cut nicely and tasted good, but the killer on the dish is the crazy amount of scallion. The soup she got was the egg drop, and the broth was actually nice and tasty, not too thick, and you can taste the egg drop in the soup. The soup is good.
I got the crab fried rice, because I love anything that is lobster, crab, or shrimp. The crab rice is complimented with asparagus, bacon, egg and shitake mushroom with zesty lemon and sriracha sauce. I thought the taste of the rice was pretty good and the portion size was good as well.
Got the shrimp dynamite as an appetizer and its served on a martini glass. The sauce is a bit spicy but its alright. The batter on the shrimp is a bit much for this dish, and I couldn't really taste the freshness of the shrimp as well. The sauce was a bit overkill for this dish.
Lastly, finished off with the 'Great Wall of Chocolate' which is a 6 layered chocolate frosted cake with semi-sweet chocolate chips accompanied with fresh berries and raspberry sauce surround the cake. This cake is quite BIG and would definitely feed 3 or more ppl for dessert. The cake was a bit dry for us, but we still managed to finish three quarters of it.
Total Damage: $58 before tax.
Service was good!
Food was better than okay!
Ambiance and Decor is nice!
Would come back to try other stuff in the future!
P/S: They offer valet parking if you want rather than parking at the back area in case you enjoy that special treatment... =P
