I made the mistake of taking my wife to celebrate Chinese New Year's at probably the worst dine-in chinese restaurant I have ever visited in my life. I am embarrassed to have a chinese restaurant like this to represent my culture. The reason we even set foot in this restaurant was because Tai Lake (restaurant next door) had a long wait and we were hungry. The restaurant had a nice atmosphere to it. There were only 5 tables occupied (not one single asian person, should have been a clue) so it was definitely not busy. The tea had no taste and the crispy noodles were stale. I asked the waitress if the sweet and sour fish filet on the menu was flounder and she quickly answered yes. We then proceeded to order fried dumplings as an appetizer and beef chow fun for our entree along with the fish. Well we received our fried dumplings and they were deep-fried like no tomorrow which made them hard to eat. The waitress then tells us 5 minutes later that they do not have anymore chow fun because, ""we were busy earlier,"" and asked if lo mein would be okay so we said yes. When the fish entree was brought out I was in disbelief. The watress served us a separate bowl with sweet and sour sauce in it and 8 chicken nugget size fried fish. I have never in my ""chinaman"" life ever seen this entree served like this especially being a $12 dish. Then comes our supposed to be beef chow fun changed to lo mein but was served with mei fun, WTF?? I know I'm an American Born Chinese (ABC) so am I not supposed to know the difference? What even is more unbelieveable is that the table next to us is served a dish with lo mein, talking about rubbing salt into the wound. Needless to say I give this restaurant 2 thumbs down and a heavy NOT RECOMMENDED!
