We 've eaten here for many years. Usually the fried chicken, but everything always great. What happened? Chef/Cook leave? My sautéed shrimp came smelling fishy.....that 's a sign of decay, they are spoiled, old, tasted old. Mama got the special salmon could not finish it, yucky tomato sauce all over it. Next issue; they seated four people, (Orinda regulars? , right across from us with a small dog.....BARKING, A LOT!... View all feedback.
