Update:__We gave it another shot and, while much better than the last visit, there is no doubt they have a new chef or new recipes or new ingredients. read more Update:__We gave it another shot and, while much better than the last visit, there is no doubt they have a new chef or new recipes or new ingredients.

I had an 8:30 reservation but service quite slow due to a busy fully booked restaurant with 2 lovely and friendly waitresses and a nice owner at first, who was the ONLY one seating and taking all orders for the entire restaurant inside and outside). After waiting quite some time to place our order—I mistakenly took a recommendation for my son’s order from the owner after his initial choice of pork dish was already finished for the evening. After the long wait to order food, it totally slipped my mind to even asked her what was in the recommended chicken dish—which had peanuts my son is allergic to). I will say they ask online to mentioned allergies etc. but felt she also should have asked us about allergies before giving her unwarranted recommendation. Now, what was disappointing is though I took full accountability for not asking—the owner just smiled and accepted I pay entirely for this dish on top of still ordering another meal for my son. No real apology from her nor did she take any accountability not professional and no etiquette). Now, on to the meals—his dumpling soup was average and did not match soup perhaps wrong choice). My shrimp dish barely had any shrimps and I believe they rationed off maybe 4 small shrimps I’m probably being generous on how many shrimps was actually in this dish). It was a few chopped pieces breaded and fried in sweet and sour sauce then mixed in a bowl of mostly spicy peppers, onions expensive for that it was). This dish was overpowered by peppers, onions, celery etc. It really was missing the main opening act—“The SHRIMP”!
