| - Came here with a party of 8 people for a birthday dinner on Friday November 13, 2015. I read other Yelper's mixed reviews and had my fingers-crossed for a great evening.
My first, and my LAST time coming here.
Here's what happened: we had reservations for 6pm, and we were informed there is a 2-hour seating limit. Everybody arrived by 6:10pm. We placed our food orders and were served water. So we sit, chat, and wait. At 6:55pm, the waitress comes to our table and tells us its "last call" for food from our table. WTF? I told her that the entire table has not received ANY of our food, we were sitting at the table drinking our water and you have the audacity to tell us that? She says "yes, sorry." Wow, such fake empathy!
8 people and they still mess up our orders. They missed our Pork Tantan Ramen ($10.80). We cancelled the order and they still charged us for it - always double check your bill); 2 friends ordered the Kingyo Bomb dish....at 7:20pm, we follow-up on its whereabouts. Guess what? "Sorry, because we only have one person inside the kitchen that makes it". She says it hasn't been made yet and it "may" take another 10 minutes. Both decided to cancel the order.
I have to be honest. The Yuzu "Ankake" Bokkake Udon ($11.80) barely passed the grade. The $21 Short Ribs was expensive but was good. The "sampler" Jewel box ($13.80) sucked and was a total ripoff.
It annoys me when I see a restaurant put food on top of a big green leaf and suddenly they call themselves a "high-class" restaurant LOL. Oh and to top it off, they charged me an auto-gratuity because of the party.
Take my $5.79 tip Kingyo, because you won't get another cent off me!
*We drove to Sansotei Ramen afterwards because we were still hungry. Afterall, we basically only had "appetizers" in the 2 hours we were at Kingyo.
