| - This restaurant is located inside the Gold Coast Casino. It is a cross between Hong Kong Style and Taiwanese Style dishes. They offer bento boxes, lunch specials, hot pot, and regular family style rice dishes. Overall, the food is good, but it didn't stand out in any way that would get me to come back.
The hot pot dishes are perfect for individuals. For a set price you get a pre-set dish of raw veggies and meats. The hot pot comes out on a portable gas stove and most people eat an order by themselves. If you eat on the lighter side, you can share this dish as well. I recommend the spicy soup base. It is spicy, but very tasty. I personally like to order a extra side order of egg noodle and wontons with my hot pot.
Their bento boxes are really great for people who want their own personal meal. Bentos boxes come with rice or fried rice, an egg roll with sweet n sour sauce, a bowl of egg drop soup, cucumbers, a fortune cookie, and an entree of your choice. Bento boxes average around $15 each.
Their appetizers and pretty good if you're wanting a taste of other dishes. The chicken wings are chicken wings. They are good, but nothing too special. The Peking Duck Tasters are good, but not worth the $10 because it only comes with 3 pieces of duck and buns.
The service was the absolute worst here, but it's not something uncommon for a traditional Chinese restaurant. My party sat waiting for the waiters to come over and take our drink order and food order for 30 minutes before we realized that you have to get the waiter's attention to order or they had no intention of coming to stop by our table. I literally asked for utensils five times and they would keep saying "okay," but then never bringing me any. In addition, condiments like the sauces that came with the hot pot or the soup that came with the bento boxes had to be asked for instead of it automatically coming out with the dish. I don't care about fancy service, but I expect that the waiters would at least come take our order and bring out our food on their own instead of the customer having to beg for their service.
