| - My grandma and I stumbled in here for lunch while running errands and it was our first time.
We were definitely turned off a bit by the menu as it made us feel like we were at Cheesecake Factory where there were numerous types of cuisines and no direction. If it is supposed to be Asian fusion, it should be innovative and have only Chinese inspired food. It seems strange to have so many different types of food together such as guacamole and lettuce wraps, orange chicken and flat-bread, and etc. I know it's an ideal setting to go when you go with a big group and everyone is picky about certain things, but there is ALWAYS something on the menu for those picky eaters so do not worry about what they would order, but refocus your menu like the reviewer mentioned on the other yelp.
As I know we critiqued having weird combinations on the menu, we decided to try the Margarita flat-bread and the Evil Jungle Princess rice dish with shrimp. While we are waiting for our food, our waiter brings us BOTH hot tea and I did NOT order a hot tea, but he disappeared for awhile so I couldn't tell him that I only wanted iced water. I decided to have hot tea because we did not have our waters yet. Finally he came back and we told him about the waters and he took our food order. The funny thing is we asked him for his opinions and like the one reviewer said, they do not know the menu very well to explain or even offer some favorites!
The reason behind this bad review is because of the actual food. We thought we would get the flat-bread first, but it came with the rice dish as well. We did not make a big deal and decided to eat both at the same time. The flat-bread had so much balsamic vinegar that it was hard to taste the tomatoes and the cheese. It was inedible. The shrimp in the Evil Jungle rice dish was disgusting. It tasted like imitation crab, but with shrimp. It did NOT taste like shrimp at all. My grandma and I literally lost our appetites. The rice itself had potential, but did not have much vegetables like the menu described. There were only four pieces of shrimp but we each did not finish our first shrimp because it was tasteless and NOT shrimp.
I really hope they listen to all of our reviews and change it and actually get their food FRESH and not frozen seafood or whatever that shrimp was!
