| - Came here for dinner with family on a quiet Tuesday night.
Food - taste and quality ok. I would say comparable to most of the well known Chinese restaurants out there. Portion size is relatively smaller. We ordered a 8 ppl meal and had to order 2 more dishes for 9 ppl and some of us still left feeling hungry. I was pretty surprised by how small the dishes were given my experience with places such as Skyview and O Mei
Service - not so good. The place was relatively quiet and well staffed (about 6 - 7 staff serving just 5 tables). However, they all seem to be blind. It's one of those situations where you are at your seat waving your hand in big motion and the staff seems to look through you when they walk past you. When you do get their attention, they will come over and literally throw plates and food down on your table. When I was looking at the menu to order, the one lady staff kept on standing behind me pressuring me to order the most expensive meal out there, even though I already politely asked her a few times to give me some time to look through the menu.
Price - everything requires extra cost. Omg... I can't remember the last time I heard a staff say this to me as many times as I did here. Changing the type of veggie = $8 extra, changing the cooking method of lobster = $8 extra, blah blah blah blah, paying with credit card on a set meal of $598 is 5% extra ....wow! The last time I heard, the interchange fee for credit card payment is not 5%. They tried to up-sell me by saying they didn't have any 6lb lobsters available and I had to pay more. I insisted that I would not pay more and finally they gave me a 6lb one. At the end, they had the guts to over charge me $80 or something I didn't even order. Talk about cash hungry owners and staff!
Overall, I'm confident I will not be coming back again and wouldn't recommend this place to my friends. Ps: for some odd reason, there were so many Mosquitos and flies flying around all the time during dinner. I actually for a few mosquito bites on my body.
