When I showed it to the server, they simply apologized and still charged me as if nothing had happened. And to top it off, they added a 20% service fee, possibly for the bone incident. This is not the kind of customer service you would expect in America.

The only downside was the 20% mandatory service fee added to the bill, which includes tips for the service. I believe this is unfair, as tipping should be a customer's choice as a token of appreciation. The restaurant is changing the traditional meaning of tipping. Both Bantam King and their sister restaurant mention a 20% service fee on their menus, with the option to remove or adjust it at the customer's discretion. However, Bantam King did not honor this and forced the fee on customers.

Dumplings were also good, but maybe not quite as good.
