We usually drop by E&O on Fridays or Saturdays. The ambiance is great, good service, but the best part is the food...love the firecracker chicken...n' also the small plates, speci...

Nice night! 8/1/2006

My husband and I came here for our anniversary on a Tuesday. There was a small crowd but that was what we were looking for. The food was decidedly different than the San Francisco location--had more spices which we both liked. Our waitress was attentive and very nice. They made our anniversary very special!! Pros: Great service, great drinks, beautiful atmosphere Cons: OK food more

Great place for Pan Asian food 2/16/2006

It's a real nice place to have Pan Asian food ... The food is really good ... The prices are really reasonable. There are two parking lots close to the restaurants. The parking is free after 6:00 PM on weekdays and free all day Sat/Sun. Pros: Food / Service, Parking more

1st and last time there. 12/15/2005

Manager was very rude & unprofessional. He was belligerant & combative in explaining their drink policy. As a manager, he should have been more professional & less aggressive. Further, the curry was bland and the ribeye steak was chewey. Definitely not worth the price. And it took the waitress 10 minutes to bring out plates & forks after we already blew out the candles on our melting ICE cream cake. Pros: Clean Cons: Poor Service, Bad Food, Expensive more

Not that good... 3/31/2005

This place is not worth your money for the taste and quality of the food. I tried about five different plates here and the only decent one was the corn fritters. There are many other Asian restaurants far better than this one. Pros: location, pretty Cons: food, value more

Think Twice 3/14/2004

We noticed E&O Trading company and decided to give it a try. Our first time there, and the place is beautiful. The draw back is the poor service and the cost of the food. We ordered our food (small plates) that ended up costing us more money. We had to flag down our waitress 20 minutes after we finished our last bite (she never checked on us once). Terrible service for such a nice place more

Yum. .. 12/7/2003

I really enjoyed this place, not only was the food great but the amoshpere divine. Ribs were awesome accompanied with jasimine rice. Nice place for a date, but expect a wait. It took about 20 mins to get seated, which was odd since there seem to be tables available. Overall great, but be prepared to wave down a waiter. Pros: Food, Drinks, ambiance Cons: Wait to be seated more

It's ok.... 8/6/2003

The food is good, but not worth the price. The corn fritters are great but the shredded meat for the lettuce cups is way too salty- too overpowering. Every time I've been there with a few people, the bill ends up being overwhelming- for just a few drinks and 2 or 3 appetizers for the whole table. more

It reminds me why I eat in San Francisco 6/24/2003

The restaurant was half empty (half full?) on a Monday night, yet it still took us over twenty minutes to be seated. Were the three waiters for the ten tables over burdened? I think not. Once seated, we order a bottle of wine, which took some time to get to our table, too. Our appatizer arrived AFTER our dinner did, and our dinner arrived only AFTER we commented that it was taking so long to come. So, a meal that should have taken an hour ended up taking two and a half. Thank goodness we were in good company! Go here only if you have time to spare. Pros: good wine list, pleasing decor Cons: no inexpensive wines, extremely slow, loud more

Weak fusion 9/21/2002

The Asian side of the fusion equation wasn't very authentic. More and more fusion restaurants are very gimicky - this might be one of them. Definitely appeals to the non-Asian diner. Please don't use peanut butter in your peanut sauce. The food overall was okay but overpriced. The waiter was a bit condescending. more
