Spend the extra $3 and go to The Mandarin. Seriously.
I'm actually surprised there are so many good reviews.. I can't believe it could be this bad the day we went just by fluke..
The food was very stale and obviously very low quality (it was pretty gross and I had sampled almost everything to try to find something good! And I'm seriously not a picky eater!)
Granted we went on a Monday at 730 and it was dead.. But think about it.. Good Chinese take out tastes good the next day, even cold!
They clearly had no regard for the FIFO rule (first in first out) we saw them pile new noodles on top of old noodles lol. You know how you can tell when stuff has been sitting there? Just dry looking.. Everything was like that. If it's dead why put out so much food so it just sits there? Also all the bread was HARD.
So anyways I was the only one at my table who had the sushi (maki).. And yay.. I got sick! I told the waitress and she just gave me a blank stare (lol). They were also really sketchy about it being my friends birthday.. Like: "You have to come to the front and pay cash and have ID" in a way that I felt like we were trying to rip them off because they advertise free dinner on your birthday?
So bottom line: old stale sub par food, probably health code violations that'll make you sick, and unhelpful, unfriendly staff.
Seriously it's like $2 more to go to Mandarin, where if the food is gross and you get sick they won't just stare at you. Don't go here.
