| - I was really hesitant to come to Lemon Grass because of all the reviews I read on Yelp. However, it really isn't that bad of a restaurant... IF and ONLY IF you know what to order so keep reading!
I went for dinner with 3 other friends and we all loved the atmosphere of the restaurant and the spaciness. Here's everything we ordered:
Appetizers: Chicken Satay (3 stars) & Shrimp in Blanket (4 stars)
The chicken satay was delicious! However, the chicken was a bit too hard for me. The shrimp in the blanket was PERFECT but a bit small and pricey (only reason it's 4 stars)
Entrees: Seafood Jade Noodles (0 star), Drunken Noodles (4 stars), Crab Noodles (5 stars), Chef's Frie Rice (4 stars):
First, I didn't try the crab noodles or the chef's fried rice..it's purely on what my friends thought. The drunken noodles flavors were good with a kick to it. To those who are familiar with Chinese food, it tastes like Beef Ho Fun. The seafood jade noodles was disgusting.. it sounded so enticing because it had squid, scallops, and shrimp! But the noodles and seafood had ZERO flavors and it was very watery. I almost feel like they cooked frozen seafood and it "melted" while cooking in the noodles and hence the fish was so watery. My friends ordered crab noodles and thought it was AWESOME and had them add chicken (extra $3) to the dish. But yeah, he LOVED it. Then, my other friend had the chef's special fried rice and I think that might be the next dish I tried. She loved it AND it looked soooo delicious and flavorful!
Personally, I would come back here again to try more dishes. It's not my favorite restaurant but I'd love to try again.
