I have been to allot of restaurants in allot of towns but this place takes the cake in being a health hazard to the community. I went to eat there at 5:30pm on a Saturday night and there were few people there. I looked at the bar and almost left because the food on it was old like it had been on the heat table since lunch ended. There were a couple of items that did not look half bad though and the noodles were ok as well as the rice. I went ahead and ate but could only find two meats I would risk my life eating and after one plate I decided it was enough and paid out. As I walked to the register I noticed the lady WAS POURING WATER INTO THE OLD FOOD DISHES AND MIXING THEM TO MAKE THEM LOOK FRESH AGAIN!!!! What???? Who does that???? Some of this stuff was seafood too! I must mention as well the soups and sweet sauce were all disgusting looking and one of them for a lack of better definition, looked like a toilet at Taco Bell. I also noticed NO ONE else working, no one coming from the back to freshen the food, no one was cleaning tables or refilling drinks. It was just this one lady and she was doing everything in her power to make old and expired food get eaten. Unless this place changes ownership I HIGHLY ADVISE you be careful eating there if you must.
I am adding this line as a reply to the response below. “NOOOOOOOOO! That is so BAD in so many ways! Put out less at a time and hire someone to run fresh out but just NOOOO!”

Not recommended. Came here wanting to try something new around town and was disappointed to say the least. Food was mostly gone when we got there, nothing was out and food that was available was cold. Rice specifically was crunchy which was not ideal. Scared not to tip and scared to leave food on my plate due to all the signs about wasting food.

Disgusting. Food on the line was skimpy, and what was there was not great. The waitress berated people for leaving food on their plates, and we were surrounded by printed signs on the wall saying “Be respectful, don’t waste good food”. When a couple seated next to us left she was upset with how much food they did not eat saying “oh my gosh, I can’t believe this. So much waste, oh my gosh”. She then carried their plates to the kitchen!!! All other tables she had cleared up to that point were dumped in the trash and put in the bus bin. We immediately lost our appetite and stopped eating our just dished second round of food. We went to pay, and she checked our plates first before coming to cash us out. She berated us for leaving full plates so I called her out on reusing food that people had eaten off of. She claimed she was bringing the food to the garbage but I find that hard to believe when the kitchen was further out of her way than the bus bin was. Barf!!! 0 stars!!! Do not recommend!!!

Have slowly become my favorite place to satisfy pregnancy cravings, food has been so fresh and full of flavor and we love bringing our daughter here.
The food was lukewarm, a lot of the items were empty or almost empty, the service was almost nonexistent, and the restaurant was dirty and run down. I would not go back, and I would not recommend.
