Tried this place tonight with the bestie! She discovered it and I was interested in giving it a try. I was planning to write a great review tonight but in the modest of me writing this review a friend called me. He said, "turn on the news that restaurant you went to tonight is on WBTV restaurant scorecard!" I immediately felt nauseous but tuned in because I was just in the phone sharing with him that the food was good but mine and Stefannys stomach was hurting about 20mins after our meal.
After watching the review on WBTV it probably was from the pork being placed on the floor of the kitchen in buckets. Or maybe it was from the chefs not wearing the proper protective gear for their facial hair while cooking and hair. Or maybe from the undercooked food. They had a score of a 91 -A, and that's absolute nasty! I doubt I'll be returning, but if you want to see the video check out WBTV restaurant scorecard.

From the article:
Also up this week on the report card is Futo Buta. They too were handling raw chicken with their bare hands. Bare hand contact with your food is never allowed.
One employee working with ready-to-eat food wasn't wearing his beard net and some of their buckets of soup, pigs feet and broth all being stored on the floor.
Their grade here at Futo Buta, a 91, another low "A".
I really hope Futo Buta has made changes since this was featured.
