| - My expectations about this place were way too high, especially after reading the reviews and for the price you pay for the Asian fondue experience.
When I got there with my husband the hostess was on the food with someone, there were also a guy in front of us waiting to be seated with two kids and after us a party of 5 arrived. The hostess took her sweet time on the phone then started sitting everybody.
To start I did not like the way the tables are organized. We were like on the corner of a room that we had no access to our waitress. Very secluded spot. The waitress asked for our drinks and gave us the menu, she came back after a good while asking if we were ready to order, so we did. We ordered miso and the House broth, steak, chicken, shrimp, mussels, octopus, squid, ramen and watercress that was never served. The shrimp was frozen, what places serve frozen sea food? They didn't even care about thawing the shrimp. We ordered spring rolls, crab Rangoon, chicken wings and the voodoo shrimp as appetizer which surprisingly arrived only after we were almost done with our food. Besides we had to remind the waitress about the voodoo shrimp that she forgot.
The miso broth was so salty I barely could eat. Talking about salty when my chicken wings arrived I couldn't believe in what I was seeing. They were over fried, dried and white, YES, white with all the salt they poured on top of my wings. I don't think they calculate the portions correctly, I ordered chicken for one person and they sent us chicken for at least two people. Take in mind if you don't eat all your food you have to pay for the leftovers. Even though we had many disappointments we were willing to go back to try something from their regular menu but things just started getting worse! They waitress simply disappeared, my husband and another customer had to leave to look for her and she was nowhere to be found. I wanted to eat dessert but since the waitress disappeared my husband again tried to find her without success. So we decided to pay, but how could we if there was nobody to receive the payment? Was just like a ghost town! The hostess appeared so we could pay and leave. I have never been so frustrated! I have been to so many restaurants and never had this lack of service or food before. We spent almost $100 on something that wasn't worth even half! I will never go back to this place and I will advise my friends to keep distance.
PS: the crab Rangoon was the only decent thing we had.
