We had a reservation here for a corporate lunch. I'd never been here before, some people had been however so I did the usual - look at the website, scope out what's good what's not.
The website is very impressive & informative. Tells you bout the dragon noodle, the dragon 'pearl' ....in grave details. I was excited.
We get to the restaurant and its something to see! At first, it seems very cool! The decor is all black/red/gold ish. The furniture is massive & impressive and so is the mood lighting. I sat down, ordered a jasmine tea & again was continually impressed. The tea pot itself was gorgeous! And the tea of course was yummy too...I was excited! So we all made our way to the buffet...
And this is where my high wore off ...slowly but surely it became apparent why this place isn't as highly rated when it comes to Asian food as it should be. The food leaves a lot to be desired.
If I had to sum it up, Loblaws nearby has better sushi than they do...and Manchu Wok sells better noodles....its full of salt, fat & no flavor. The desserts are all packaged, thawed & displayed in the buffet.
I'm giving them one star for the 'dragon noodle' tom yum soup I got freshly made. Other than that, this place is a total disaster.
Avoid at all costs..
