Beijing Dumpling — Restaurant in Westerly

Food was mediocre at best. Note that I am highly allergic to MSG (I get the shakes like I've had a ton of coffee and my heart pounds nearly out of my chest), so I specifically asked before placing my order if they used MSG. I was assured twice that no, they did not. Well, they must have used extra MSG in my order because after one hour of sleep, I awoke shaking and my heart pounding so badly that I knew right then that there was MSG in the food. Was awake with these symptoms until nearly 4:00 a.m. Awoke again at 6 this morning with my heart still pounding. I will never go back, especially since they lied to my face.

The best part of the meal were the dumplings. I wish we had gotten a variety of those. Always eat the food in the name of the restaurant.

Will go again. New spot for sure.

It's off the beaten path but...
