A day after my experience at Grand China have I only begun to recover. \r
\r
Upon entering, a group of 14 of us were seated at the large round table near the rear of the restaurant. From there, it all went downhill.\r
\r
The waitress we had, who was wearing an over-the-top dress, continuously pryed into in what was supposed to be a nice birthday celebration for a friend of ours. Instead of providing a service, she forced awkward conversations, asked each person personal questions, and 1/2 through our meal, began to make insulting, vulgar, offensive jokes. She was especially offensive To Jewish people, which I took personal offense to. I let her know I did not approve, and then tried to baby me the rest of the night in an attempt to repair a tasteless act. However, she continued to joke and disrupt our dinner... Later on in the evening, my friend, a petite Asian girl, was hit-on rudely by one of the male waiters, who told her he was going to ""meet her"" in the bathroom.\r
\r
As for the food itself, which fortunately came primarily prior to the offensive jokes, was adequate at best. We all ordered separate dishes, but most of us shared. The ginger beef was among the better dishes. The plum duck was extremely boney and had very little meat and tons of fat. The other dishes were all very average and were not significantly better than what would be served at a mall or asian food chain such as Mama Fu's, Tin Drum, etc.\r
\r
The bottom line was that the experience was offensive and left a bad taste in all our mouths. The waitress, upon leaving, asked us to fill out comment cards and in return, would receive a birthday certificate to return for a free meal. I would have preferred a refund and a genuine apology. Regardless, I did leave my comments, but with the manager in front, and not on some information prying comment card.
Pros: Easy to get a table
Cons: Easy to get a table, Food, SERVICE, Parking Lot
