So my friend and I were rolling through Cleveland en rt to Chi and did a search for late night dining. Everyone seemed to claim this grub was great - so we decided to give it a go. On the way back to NY I think we will stop by East 4th instead for some Mexican fare.
We rolled in here around 1 AM or so - they're open till 3 AM - and I had hopes of ordering loads of the supposedly great dim sum. I was informed it took 20 minutes to make and hesitantly offered to show me a menu. I just said nevermind and ordered the Szeschuan mixed plate (shrimp, scallops, pork) which is supposed to be very spicy. I also had the wonton soup - which was pretty good and I enjoyed it. The main course however was just really tremendously oily and everything soaked up the not at all spicy sauce. Everything, that is, save for the scallop - which was extraordinarily fishy tasting! Mleh.
My friend ordered the pork pot stickers which came with a good sauce but were nothing special. He also had the Moo Goo Gai Pan which I tasted and lamented the blandness of what can so easily be a great dish. This too was coated in sauce that disallowed the boiled vegetables their day in the spotlight.
Boo to you Bo Loong.
Maybe I should have been adamant about the dim sum. Shrugs. For late night dining - look elsewhere.
