| - Yelp doesn't lie! I was pretty apprehensive about trying this place due to the reviews below, but I had received a $20 discount coupon in the mail which pretty much equaled out to a free dinner for my husband and I. I went in with an open mind and tried to put the bad reviews aside.
The menu seems to be a mix of Asian and Mexican, due to my lactose issue we decided to go with two Asian dishes of pad Thai and Mongolian beef. We put in our order, and I swear about 6 minutes later our food was out. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but just struck me as odd. Are the dishes made to order? If so, how could they be cooked so fast, and it's not like we were the only patrons in the place, the restaurant was somewhat busy when we were there. Anyway, this didn't affect the taste of our food.
As for the food; portion size was on the smaller size compared to other Asian restaurants I've been to. Both dishes had decent flavor but the sauce was just really sugary, it would've been much better if they just dialed back the sweetness. After finishing our dishes it was decided that while the meal wasn't bad per se, it just wasn't a good value. It pretty much tasted like Pei Wei, and I could get both dishes at Pei Wei for half the price with bigger portions. Or if I wanted to real thing, I would just go to Wild Thaiger or Szechuan Palace. I would probably only return again if I had another $20 coupon.
