Lengthy review.
We have been long time customers of this place. Before it changed owners, the food was so flavorful, hot, fresh and done well. Now, I don't know if I will return. I am going to try other places especially because what we got was not even close to what it used to be.
The inside of the restaurant is blah. There used to be a beautiful aquarium, so sitting inside was entertaining. They took it out. There is now a small alter on the floor. No qualms about the alter itself, but perhaps a table could enhance the atmosphere be more pleasant if they tried to make it a more visually pleasing standard. The walls are dingy and look like they haven't been washed in a while. The menu on the wall needs to be updated. The visual cards have ones with no picture. Why not just remove them???
So, for $62, I ordered chicken fried rice, beef and broccoli, garlic spare ribs and wor wonton soup. For the price I paid, you would expect gourmet. We were really disappointed in the quality of food over all.
The chicken fried rice tasted like it hadn't been rinsed before it was half way cooked and then fried. There was hardly any flavor and you could tell just by the soy sauce color it wasn't great. The beef and broccoli dish is a usual go to, but the broccoli was so mushy, I couldn't finish it. The wor wonton was okay, aside from having to remove a huge, thick piece of pork. And sadly, the garlic spare ribs are a definite no for me. They used to be dark golden fried, crisp, full of flavor and tasty. What we got were big mushy pieces of boneless spare ribs cooked to a light golden color and not much flavor.
I won't order.from here again. They need to up the standards of cooking their food. This was a waste of money and a sad disappointment. For 21 years we have been coming here and never had any complaints. After this, it's a no for me. It's time to find a new Chinese food place. Too bad!
