    Service is not good, staff has zero personality. It was like dining in the Reading Room at the LOC. Food is decent, but not great. Was very disappointed.

    This pan-Asian fusion is a neighborhood place, not a destination. The food was good, but nothing unique or memorable. They underplay the spices. My "sweetheart tuna " maki had spicy tuna and avocado surrounded by fresh tuna and it was delicious but not at all spicy. There was no spice in the crispy beef, but again it was delicious and crispy. The shrimp egg roll was very large and greaseless, but the minced shrimp was undetectable. Egg drop soup was fine. I can't recall what the shrimp dish was supposed to be, but while the shrimp were large and plentiful, the overall result was somewhat bland. Basically just boiled or steamed shrimp with some shredded veggies. I did love the jasmine iced tea, especially done as a bubble tea.

    I had a great, not too expensive meal -- an appetizer and main course for $20. Highly recommend if you want cheap, good Chinese food.

    I took a friend to Young Chow Chen's who had lived in China for many years. We had sushi and dim sum, and she thought the dim sum especially was the best she'd ever eaten. The sushi was also fine. We went early, so it was really quiet and we had great service. We recommended it to colleagues who were at the same conference and they went the following evening. I was glad to find a good sushi place on this side of town - the selection is impressive. I'll be back!

    The waitress did not write down our order I ordered dim sum and pointed at the menu she came back with spring rolls. Servers did not come back to refill water or ask if we needed anything else. The menu has lots of variety , yummy food. Service was not great.

    The food was thrown together (noodles in bottom of dish unmixed with the other ingredients for Drunken Noodles), garlic sauce dish was more sweet than garlic or spice. Even a teenager who usually eats everything in sight didn't take seconds.
