Jun 13, 2016I bought one week worth of food to try this out after reading the reviews. And so far from the one day we tried this, the food is disgusting. The spinach and pineapple was over cooked and not flavor. The Mac and cheese tasted weird. And the salmon was the driest I ever tried. Quite disappointed. Only the tacos was edible.

Apr 2, 2016I came here for the facial and twice I had to wait more than half hour. The first time was forty minutes and the second was fifty minutes as I was having facial for two people. Price wise you can't beat, but I am not going back because they don't keep their word on time and I had a very angry husband.

Aug 23, 2015We have been here for a total of four times, and I really wanted to like this place and make it one of the regular places to go to since it is walking distance to our house. And three times out of four, it had been disappointing.
The food:
1. We ordered one time the pad thai and anther time the pad see eww. it was very strange tasting and the oil was reused many times, that you could taste it.
2. The most recently ocasion, I ordered the oyster omelete and it hardly had any egg in it. Perhaps this is the style , so I can say that maybe it is my fault for ordering it.
3. The thing that was edible and tasty was the pork belly with rice and egg as well as some of the typical dian xin like radish cake.
So if you had to go there and try, don't bother about their dishes from the main menu that is thai . Just go for the taiwanese dian xin stuff.
The service
1. The service has been deplorable . While they seem very earnest when you enter the restaurant, they leave you alone for the most part to fend for yourself, even when the restaurant is pretty empty.
2. I waited over forty minutes once for take out food even though they promised me 20 minutes.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
Apr 21, 2013I was so looking forward to trying out the donuts and am so disappointed. The presentation was very nice, but the dough tasted like mexican desserts, too much yeast and very heavy. Not light and fluffy at all.
Only the creme brulee was ok.
It was yucky yuck for me and my husband.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
Apr 29, 2011I bought a living social coupon worth $40 and was excited to try the restaurant , but was extremely disappointed by the quality of the food. The service was also really slow- we waited close to am hour for each dish. So the entire dinner took two and a half hours. And if you have a toddler in tow, it's not good news.
I had the tamal and watermelon salad for the starters and the filet migon for the main dish. The tamal was way too salty and the filet migon was hard and dry and the sweet potato tasted weird with coconut shavings. The combination wasn just plain bad. My friends pork dish was too dry also.
We will never be back. I so much wanted to like this place.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
