We tried the salt and pork ribs are pretty good too. Prices have definitely gone up. I think the salt and pepper calamari was about $26 but the container is petty full. The place itself is small. You literally have enough space to just look at the menu and come back to pick up your order. The lady seems mean but she doesn't play.

It 's tasty, crunchy and quite addictive. My in-laws would buy a half tray and bring it on a flight to Asia and it would still be crispy after a 14 hour flight. I buy a small box for $26 and we eat it over 4-5 days and it stays crispy the entire time. Regarding the service, if you 've ever watched Seinfeld with the episode featuring the Soup Nazi , my wife and I jokingly refer to the Chef P 's lady as the Squid Nazi . Yes, she 's gruff. We just accept it knowing she 's like that to everyone and it 's not you specifically. Just expect that she 's like that and it isn 't a big deal because I haven 't found any place else that can make calamari like they do. The place is CASH ONLY so bring your greenbacks. Finally, make sure you seal up your calamari tightly in a zip lock or plastic bag or your car or luggage will smell like fried calamari. Service: Takeaway Food: 5 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3
