Average experience. Food looks appetizing, but lacks attention to detail (missing avocado in some of the sushi). Noodle portions were inadequate for the price. Most of the container was empty. $8 soup was slightly spilled due to inadequate packaging. Also, my daughter found a hair in her rice. Room for improvement.

She never came back with it so I was just waiting there. Until I asked another waitress. By then I was kind of done and didn’t want to look for anything else.

The servers were so...
