I've been eating at this location since it used to be Tokyo Express. Then I saw East Wind change ownership/ concept several times going from casual counter service to sit down/waitress service to what is now between the two. I've also seen the menu change several times as well. Right now, the menu is pretty good. The price decent. The bento boxes are served all day and big enough to feed two people or one hungry man sized man. No more barley tea- upside down frown insert here.
Came here for HH/ dinner w gfriend and son. Service extremely friendly. Even after I complained that the fried calamari was so over fried that the calamari was like rubber and the breading almost burnt. The waitress was very nice and told me she would bring me another order. Although, when she brought the new order, it was still just as burnt and overcooked as the first order. I felt a bit like I was in twilight zone or candid camera . . . I looked at her then I looked around to make sure that I was not getting punked. Lol. It was pretty funny.
It didn't bother me since the waitress was so nice about it and I had plenty of other food to eat. Maybe she was trying to send me the message fried food is bad for me . . .
My gfriend had the ramen which she liked and her son had the Vietnamese spring roll which looked really good. I think I will order that the next time I'm in there.
I've been coming here for years and prob will continue to do so . . . I think though I liked it best when it was the casual incarnation.
It seemed like for whatever reason, the food tasted better then.
