| - I went here for dinner last night with a large group of people, who were mostly Japanese, Filipino, and Chinese. The food was already ordered when I arrived at 10:15. It's crazy to me that people eat dinner so late, but I hear that Asians do.
Some of the dishes were good. One was really awful (bitter melon? yuck) but they were all very oily. We had lobster which was awesome, a chicken dish with snow peas and walnuts that was also very good, and some shrimp balls that I also really liked. It was strange because we only received one dish at a time for most of them. People were requesting rice with the other dishes, which didn't arrive till almost last. It was the same with some noodle dishes that I would consider sides, they really should have come out much sooner.
The service was not great. I do not expect great service at a Chinese restaurant, but after reading reviews here about the service, I thought it would be better. My drink was empty a few times and it seemed like they were annoyed when I asked for another. Maybe it was the time of night, but it wasn't that late if they stay open till 2 am.
I would consider going back to this restaurant if I knew I would be choosing the dishes I'd be eating, and hope that the timing of the dishes would be better. All in all, it was just an ok experience.
