| - The only thing about Spoonful that is better than Mandarin is the decor...
We were seated really quick, which was good. Service wise I have no idea until this day who our server really was. No one really came over to take our drink orders, we came back with just two glasses of water at our table. Other than that, it was just different servers coming by to grab our plates.
I honestly dont think Spoonful had that much selection compared to Mandarin either... considering that half their restaurant is dedicated to desserts. I ended up just eating the exact same thing on all three of my trips because there weren't that many options that stood out to me.
I was excited for their ribs but it was just fat when I started cutting into it. Even got the ribs again during my second run but still ran into the same problem. Crab legs were so soft the tool they provided to help us crack it was pretty useless. From what I can remember, I also had fried noodles, chicken teriyaki, chicken wings, torpedo shrimp, sausage and sushi. The Maki rolls and sashimi were my favourite! They had a limit of three pieces of sashimi each trip to ensure that other customers can get some too. Everything else I tried was just meh... not extremely bad but definitely not something to brag about.
I couldn't wait to try the dessert - but again I was left disappointed. The only desserts I enjoyed were the green tea ice cream and fruits. Most of the desserts there seemed like they were purchased from the grocery store lol
With the few selection, below average quality and non-existent service, I don't think I'll be returning anytime soon. I'll just stick to Mandarin, which is only about 5 minutes away from here.
