"CAUTION: A Shockingly Disgraceful Encounter!
Our anticipation was high as we arrived, a family of four at 9.30 pm, ready to relish a late-night celebratory dinner. Little did we know, our excitement would be met with a chilling blow of blatant discrimination. Incredibly, they turned us away, claiming closure, yet moments later, a different couple waltzed in and was served without a hitch.
The profound sense of outrage intensified when I ventured inside to seek an explanation, only to be met with an utterly rude individual who arrogantly crossed his arms, symbolizing an unwelcoming closure. I pointedly questioned this hypocrisy, as we had just witnessed them attending to another party. Yet, this uncaring staff member parroted the same line: 'closed,' even as their advertised hours contradicted this assertion.
My plea to speak with a manager or owner was met with nothing short of a theatrical farce. They mockingly mimicked phone calls, as if I were a fool, while their insincere 'Cici' figure repeated the baseless mantra of closure, completely disregarding my observations.
The question lingers like a foul stench: Was our family shunned for the presence of a toddler and an infant? Or does a more sinister undertone - one of racial bias - poison the core of this establishment? It's a nauseating ordeal that forces one to ponder the depths of their prejudice.
In summary, this isn't just a case of poor service; it's a disgraceful display of discriminatory practices that stain both their reputation and our faith in fair treatment. A restaurant that leaves a family in the cold while embracing others with open arms is a pitiable, loathsome excuse for an...
Read moreThe most disgusting food on earth. The seafood restaurant nearby this place had a huge line so we chose to try this place. It was the most disgusting food ever. FULL OF MSG. So much so it actually left an intolerable aftertaste until I could buy a toothpaste and toothbrush before we even got back home to alleviate the bitter chemical msg taste from my mouth. Every dish we ordered (7 in total) was disgusting with too much what seemed like cheap industrial oil, too much salt, way too much msg, and just an unappetizing stench and inedible flavor. Our faces showed just how difficult it was for us to even partially eat this slop.
All of their plateware were chipped, the place and food didn't seem clean so we all took some Pepto from the Walgreens we ran to afterwards when we purchased our toothbrush and such. My friend bought the strongest mouthwash he could and held it in his mouth for 5 minutes to try to get rid of all of the acrid aftertaste. Unfortunately the aftertaste STILL WON.
It was horrendous. A total health and safety hazard. It's a miracle we didn't get the runs from this. The only satisfying thing was the people at the next table ordered what looked like an even worse selection of dishes from the enormous menu. We were glad we didn't order any of that.
A note: they don't speak English well or at all, and ALL OF THE PATRONS were Chinese, which we thought was a good thing but have since learned otherwise. I will personally never eat at a Chinese strip mall restaurant again. The people raving about this restaurant are either 1.given an incentive to do so or 2.people who haven't had any better food or 3.people with damaged...
Read moreThis is not your typical Sichuan- ChengDu food, it’s more close to Sichuan-ChongChing cuisine as many dishes are not just spicy, they’re numbing spicy! My hubby is an European and loves really really spicy. Their Spicy Fish with Green Numbing Peppercorns is his favorite! I myself can’t eat any spicy stuff, but I like their shrimp fried rice, a normal dish but is hardly done right in any restaurant. Recently we started coming for lunch specials, generous proportion at reasonable price. Our favorites are: braised beef brisket, double cooked pork, eggplants, etc, served a la carte. We found out it’s best to dine in for these lunch specials because if you order take out, the portion is smaller as they added some other small side dish.
One time I took five friends from Finland and Denmark, and ordered all these spicy dishes for them. They actually loved every one of them, which I was surprised.
Anyhow, the service has been better for us as the waiters now recognize us. But they usually are just average - not too bad and not too super good either. They sure can improve on that as the food really is worthy of going back...
