Went to dinner last night with a small group. This was our default spot, as the first place we went was too busy, and we didn’t want to wait an hour. We should have just waited, lesson learned..

When we walked in, the place looks unmaintained, dingy, had a dive bar quality. We were seated quickly, as we were only one of two groups in the place at 5pm on a Friday night. This also should have been telling.

We discussed going elsewhere, because we were all concerned by the vibe and overall cleanliness of the place, but we were already seated and worried about being rude…

We all ordered various items (steak, chicken, shrimp, scallops), and everything from the rice, veggies to steak, all had a fishy quality. We ate a small bit, and paid quickly and left. Every member of our group was almost immediately struck with stomach pains and intense flatulence.

While I do not think anyone got food poisoning, all of our bodies rejected the meal violently, and we will never be back. Place needs better maintenance, to be cleaned from top to bottom, and I am concerned about the temperatures which they are keeping their food. Extremely dissatisfied, largely disgusted, will not return. Beware of this establishment unless frequent bathroom trips for the next 24 hours is what you are looking for.

Pretty sure I got the worst case of diarrhea from this place! Dirty and gross! Should have known to walk away when we walked in looking around the restaurant that was falling apart.

The scallops are not scallops!
The chicken was rubbery
The cook didn’t have any cooking skills.

Stay away and if you dare to go make sure you have enough toilet paper for days and don’t have to work. You will be locked up in your bathroom.

This is definitely an experience!

We have been coming here for forty years! My parents brought me and now my kids go. It's our go to for birthdays and just for the heck of it. Worth the drive 30+ minute drive from us. Great portions, caring staff and delicious food.

We were having some work done on our car next door and luckily went here for lunch. Staff were super kind, food was delicious. And wow, the portion sizes were insane. We took home as much as we ate and it made great leftovers.
