  • I completely agree with the other reviews that say this is place is a rip-off. A coworker spoke highly of the place and my relatives were visiting from the US so I thought, hey, why not? What an embarrassment. Maybe the restaurant got the waiter from a used car dealership, but he did a great job in covering us with his sleaze. We opted for the $268 combo with a 6lb lobster, Vancouver crab and eel. But wait, the waiter strongly suggested we pay more. Oh the crab is all shell. You should pay an extra $25 to get a larger one so there's something to eat. You should also pay extra for a fried rice made with lobster cholesterol (ok, that may not be the technical term). After we place our order with all the upgrades, he comes back 10 minutes later and throws a live lobster onto our table. THUNK. It's 6.96lb. Ok, that's great. Wait, we have to pay an extra $17/lb for the weight above 6lb? It's not our problem if they don't have what they advertise, is it? Oh but everybody pays extra. Well what about something smaller? Are you going to refund the difference? They don't have anything smaller. We grudgingly agree to go ahead. The restaurant knows they've got you by the proverbial balls at this point. Half way through our meal, the table beside us has two smaller-looking lobsters presented for inspection. I flag down our waiter: Me: what did they order? Waiter: oh they ordered the two-5lb lobster combo, but those are 6lb lobsters. Me: So you did have something smaller than what we ordered? Waiter: See, they have to pay extra too! He didn't even realize he was admitting to having scammed us. Oh, and they don't take credit cards so we can go to the bank that's across the parking lot to withdraw money. Their credit card machine "wasn't ready yet." For an establishment that purports itself to be fine-dining and where bills are easily over $300, you would think they could at least do their customers the courtesy of putting a "cash only" sign on the front door. For a restaurant that's obviously so intent on ripping their customers off and squeezing a few extra dollars out of them, how do you know what other corners they might be cutting? Some of the food was good, but what's the point when you leave sick to your stomach?
