| - Earlier in 2010, this joint was doing groupons. $5 for $10 of food. I bought several of these vouchers and it later became a very disappointing experience. Despite it being so long ago, I still remember it and feel the need to dog on them when someone asks me about this place.
The issue I had is that the owner WILL try to scam you. When the owner is present, my portion seems significantly smaller. I know this because I had multiple vouchers. I went once when the owner was there and again when the owner was not.
I order skinless chicken breast with potato wedges and garlic bread. It costs about $12 so I really paid $5 + 2 with the voucher. The owner was present. I was shocked at how light the box was. When I opened it, I see that the chicken was paper thin. I had less than 10 pieces of potato wedges (and they weren't big ones). The garlic bread was bite size. I can finish 90% of it in one bite. Unacceptable. I wouldn't even pay $3 for this little food.
Next time I ordered half chicken with potato wedges and garlic bread. I figured there's got to be a limit to how much you can scam me on a half chicken. Same thing with the wedges. Small and few. Thankfully, the chicken portion is more reasonable this time but I still know the owner scammed me. Because the next time I went, the owner was not present. I ordered half chicken again and the staff filled up the box much better. He seemed to have picked out a SIGNIFICANTLY bigger piece of half chicken than the owner. I didn't know chicken sizes can vary so much.
Ok...so now I figure I can just go when the owner is not there. So the last time I went, they don't even accept the vouchers anymore and urged me to get a refund with the deal company. Unacceptable. They basically sold the vouchers to make a quick buck and then decided not to deliver.
Ignoring this fiasco with the voucher, I would not go to this restaurant. If the owner didn't scam me, I think the "real" portions are just passable for the price they charge. This place is slightly pricey. More importantly, I just can't recommend a place where the owner has the absolute power to screw you in portions.
Of course, you're wondering about the quality of the food. It's just so so. I think the chicken is overcooked as there are some burn marks on the food each time which I had to manually pluck off. Otherwise, it's just like eating at any other place with Chicken or Ribs (Swiss Chalet). Except of course, the other places will not try to scam you.
