| - My wife and I have been talking about trying Lemongrass Grill for so long, and we finally took the plunge. I'm so glad we did!
Almost every table was taken on a Saturday night. They do take reservations, so we were seated right away. Our waitress was Robin and she was exceptional. She knew the menu really well, and was quick with advice and recommendations that turned out to be great.
The Crab Rangoon appetizer was fantastic. The filling was rich, creamy and packed with flavor. The accompanying sweet and sour sauce was really tasty too, and that usually isn't my thing.
So that you know how spicy a meal will be, they have peppers labeled next to some of the entrees. Some dishes have none, others 1, and a couple have a 2 pepper rating.
The MVP of the night was the Red Curry w/ Chicken entree. It was labeled as a 2 pepper meal, which is their spiciest. It was that perfect balance of feeling some heat, but not wiping sweat off your forehead in the bathroom and needing a glass of milk. If you're someone who doesn't like spicy foods, you could probably still get away with ordering this. I don't have much experience with curry, so my tastebuds got a new experience that turned out to be delicious. It's chicken with veggies in a curry type sauce. I almost asked for a spoon to drink the remaining curry like a soup. I ended up pouring it on my rice which was so good. This dish was unlike anything I'd ever had. The coconut taste was a perfect pairing with the spiciness of the curry pepper flavor.
My wife ordered the Yin and Yang. It combines tofu with a meat of your choice, which she chose chicken. It had deep-fried tofu, stir-fried with sweet onion,bell pepper, broccoli, snow peas, egg, and a chilli sauce. It was 1 pepper on the spicy meter. She really enjoyed it, especially the tofu.
They offer bubble tea, and I highly highly recommend the honeydew flavor. It was insanely tasty. It would make for a great dessert as well. If you don't get a bubble tea, you made a mistake.
Even though I was so full I could barely move, we got the deep fried banana and ice cream to top things off. It was good, but I don't know that I would ever necessarily crave it.
We didn't get it, but the table next to us ordered the tiki bowl for two, and I was jealous. Its a shared cocktail that comes in a round shaped bowl/dish, with a shot that is on fire in the middle. It looked pretty awesome.
2 drinks, an appetizer, 2 entrees, and shared dessert was $50, which is pretty reasonable I think. I'd definitely recommend sticking with their spicier dishes. Can't wait to come back.
