Restaurante Fei Long — Restaurant in Jalisco

BEWARE Sketchy prices for foreigners

Came here and ordered 4 things on the menu. We are both vegetarian and the employee easily substituted tofu for the meat in the dishes. The amount on the menu of what we ordered would have came to 450-500 Mexican pesos. We did ask the employee to add mushrooms to 3 out of 4 of the dishes and asked if there would be an extra charge. He nodded yes and we agreed to proceed with the order. Order arrived and so did the bill and WOW WAS I BLOWN AWAY. The entire bill came to 840 Mexican Pesos ($43 USD). We barely swallowed the price and had to ask the employee if the bill was accurate. He confirmed 3 times and said he had to charge extra for the mushrooms. Just to reiterate the original bill should have came to ($450-500 pesos) and I was charged an additional amount for the extra mushrooms. I have never felt more scammed than I did at this restaurant. It is the type of restaurant that if they see a foreigner with an American or British accent they price can definitely be heightened. BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU COME HERE especially if you are a foreigner. Always reclassify the price if you do a custom order and always ask what you are being charged for if you order multiple things on the menu. Don’t get scammed like we did. I live in a very expensive part of the United States and I have never paid $43 for Chinese food in the area I live in California. I feel disgusted paying this restaurant this much for food that should cost a 1/4th of the price. Will not return again, and recommend going somewhere else. If you do decide to come, USE CAUTION...

Every business has a day where things are off, restaurants are no exception and l was looking forward to trying FEI LONG. We were greeted by the waiter at the door who looked like he was trying to escape, but showed us to our table in a totally empty dining room (on a Friday night). After a lengthy wait he came back and took our order. I had green tea and sweet and sour shrimp, my friend had egg rolls and hot and sour soup. The fried noodles served as a starter were similar to what cardboard probably tastes like, maybe not as flavorful. This is the first Asian restaurant where no chopsticks were offered and the first time I had a canned green tea which didn't taste like tea at all. The shrimp was flavorful as was the overpowering sauce, but l almost lost a tooth on the crust encasing the shrimp. I didn't ask how my friend's dinner was after seeing he barely touched it. There are restrooms, plus highchairs for the little ones, street parking only, bank cards are now accepted, but no handicapped facilities of any kind. The waiter did the heavy lifting by being kind and efficient and saving FEI LONG from being starless on a Friday night. Let's hope this was just a rare exception because other reviews here were extremely positive. But let's be honest. It...

The food is seemingly made to order based on the wait. I had the Kung Pao with chicken and an ice tea. The portions are large. The decor is nice and the staff was friendly and attentive.

After about a 20 minute wait the food was served hot but the taste was very bland. The are three available sauces: a chili oil sauce (spicy and oily but no flavor), a generic sweet and sour from a factory and imitation soy sauce. The prices are expensive based on the average quality of the food. The oil used to prepare my dish must have been cooked at a temperature that caused it to burn (yes I know that sometimes this is intentional) as the overall flavor was smoked oil. Maybe there was 100g of chicken in the Kung Pao... Barely a chicken breast worth. For the price I feel that there should be more. I can have the same meal in Pitillal for less than 80 pesos. Here the cost of tea and Kung Pow is about 155 pesos. I Will come back and try a curry dish but I think the other 5 chinese restaurant I've been to in Vallarta are at least 50 pesos cheaper for Kung Pao with the exception of the two Thai restaurants but their food quality is...
