Four Stars
It is really awkward being the only Asian at an Asian restaurant. White people always ask the same questions: So I have made a T-shirt to answer them: "1. I am Chinese. 2. I was born in California. 3. I don't speak Chinese. 4. I don't know what you should order at restaurant that I have never been to or Panda Express. The food here is not Hunan food but more of a general Asian restaurant. Food from Hunan is characterized by its Spicy Flavor (chili pepper, shallots, and garlic). Here they have Japanese Sushi, Cantonese Noodles, Thai Dishes, Etc. The service was okay. The food was pretty good. I had their Drunken Noodles: Shrimp and traditional rice noodles mixed with fresh garlic, hot peppers, and basil leaves, stir-fried in a tamarind sauce; & Crispy Scallops: Quick fried sea scallops and sautéed broccoli, served with a spicy sweet sauce and honey roasted walnuts. The noodles were thinner than usual, but the dish was solid. The Scallops were a little chewy and sauce was a little sweet but the dish worked.
On a side note, the restaurant allowed my girlfriend's Ohio Family to get blitzed on beer and sake, use vulgar language, scream and laugh like hyenas, and steal a really nice coffee cup.
Thank you and Sorry.
