It's quite pretty inside. Really nice establishment. But the bowling was terrible. No controls of the screen, the bowling pins were not set well (missing pins, not registering pins, resets were frequent).
Place is a madhouse on the weekends/nights. I'd rather get my bowling fix at Curtis or Slocum's.

I just wish there was more meat. Dammit! It isn't enough food for me. =(. Only if I ate like a normal person and not a cow, I'd be oh so happy.

With its name, you'd best assume that they would have some good curry. They do. It comes out in a metal pot, boiling hot. The setting is very nice looking, but don't hesitate to dig right on in. If you come here thinking you'll get a lot of meat, don't think it. In my Japanese classic, I got 4 pieces of beef. The small chicken cutlet was the size of my palm (I have a sizeable palm), but the flavor was delicious. The pork chop was also very good - like the chicken, but in pork.
Overall, a very good meal. The curry sauce is where it's at, and that is what you're mostly paying for. I'd say, worth it!
BTW, the place is quite small, seats about 10. But they offer take out, which is good when you want curry in your living room.

The chicken sandwich with bacon is AWESOME. I love it. But I can't be dropping $11.50 for just a sandwich all the time! It isn't enough for me. Then I need to get something else, like a salad (cheapest $8) or the granola ($6), and it turns out to be $20. Can't be dropping that weekly...at least I shouldn't. Especially when I'm in Chinatown.
But honestly, if you want it all and have it all, go here. I really like it! I'll always go back, even if it'll cost me my kidney eventually.

The squid thing filled with meat is kind of awesome (and spicy). I'd def get that if that is your thing, and by thing, I mean good tasting food.

I'd rather go to chinatown and get down and dirty. I guess if you're in the neighborhood and don't want take out, you can't go wrong here. It's either this or Joe's Shanghai, and I'd pick this over that.

The all you can eat is worth it. They don't skimp on the portions either. Just try not to waste it! The dumplings are subpar though.
