| - This place is bizarre.
We walked in, and after we got the menus and were about to order, the waiter told us that we really should be ordering from "the Chinese menu." We said what menu, and turns out there was a sign by the cash register (which was quite far away from us) with speciality items listed in Chinese. This resulted in this weird back and forth dance that we had to do to go back and read the Chinese menu there.
We ordered some dishes, and overall they were decent but generally not worth the money.
The dry cooked green beans were really delicious. The sauce was on point, and it was so flavorful. I couldn't stop eating these, and my sister agreed that this dish was really good.
The spicy wontons were a bit of a letdown. The inside of the wonton tasted funny, not enough meat or something. The sauce also just tasted like soy sauce and wasn't that spicy or flavorful.
The bubble tea tasted like powdered tea. The tapioca was also really hard. They also gave it to you in a plastic hard cup (not like the disposable ones you normally get at bubble tea shops) so the presentation was off. It was also really expensive, like $5+ for a mediocre drink.
We ate some other food but it's late and I forgot the exact dishes, so I'll write them in later when I remember.
When we got the bill, we were shocked for it to be $70 for four people. I'd also like to note that THEY AUTOMATICALLY ADD GRATUITY TO THE BILL even if you have a party of four. They don't make any mention of this until you get the bill. There was barely any service either!
I was incredibly turned off by the service here and how expensive the food was given the quality of it. Normally I would give these types of places 3 stars, but I'm knocking it to 2.
