| - This place was horrific.
The sign on the door says gourmet, but I think they meant that as a joke, or to be ironic. Hole-in-the-wall is an understatement.
We walk in and there are a few tables to sit at, however, this is not a dine in joint. You must order at the counter, and unlike Panda Express, you cannot see your food before you order it.
They asked if it was for here or to go--a customary thing to do--But our food came in to go containers even though were said "for here."
Two seconds after ordering, they brought out our food. I think it's safe to say, there was no real cooking going on behind the scenes.
I ordered the vegetable fried rice. Believe me when I say I could have made better rice with my feet.
My companion ordered the sweet and sour chicken...completely inedible. It was dark in color, over cooked, and we could not find evidence of chicken present inside the crispy chunks. He took two bites and threw the whole meal away. It left a bad after taste in his mouth.
They do not offer fountain drinks at this establishment, only cans of soda. Which are piled up in the corner like a supermarket display gone wrong. I ordered ice water and received a styrofoam cup of tap water WITHOUT ice in it.
In the end, I fully expected to open the fortune cookie and read, "You should have known better."
