Provided by YPmobileBeautiful restaurant, service was ok. Food looked beautiful & looked perfectly cooked but the flavors were HORRIBLE! I've never heard of an Asian restaurant using cinnamon much less in vegetable rolls. Dipping sauces tasted like cough syrup, dumplings were soggy & over-cooked & appeared to be not fully cooked, no rice was offered.
We ordered Mongolian Beef which was delicious but not what we were familiar with, Kung Pao also good but would've been better with rice, pan-fried noodle dish w/chicken which was well fried & horrible, pork dumplings - horrible & we took a small bite & put it back, vegetable rolls.
We were taken back by the sight of the pan-fried noodle dish which appeared to be placed in a deep fryer & let them know it was not what was described or expected & asked if they had a chow mein style dish which we requested & turned out good but bland. In the end we were charged for both noodle dishes regardless. Our bill in the end was $70 & a complete waste of money!
A sign should've been lunch hour mid-week the restaurant only had a couple customers when nearby Asian restaurants had a line out the door.
