4 /5 Chela C: I came to this place very hungry as I had not eaten since 5 pm the day before as I was sleeping and recovering from my trip to Maui.
This day was 101° outside, and they had the same sign on the door saying that the AC wasn’t working too well, which has been up for almost 2 years. I mentioned that maybe it was time to get a new AC, and the young lady who sat us down said they had just gotten one a year ago, which doesn’t make sense because you would imagine it would have a warranty with it or that they would still get a new one so that they’re customers can eat comfortably. This made me think that they probably don’t want to spend the money on the AC for their customers. It also makes me think of places I’ve seen where the cooks are sweating all over the food and wondered if their temperature in the kitchen was just as hot or hotter than it was in the restaurant.
As I am older, I mentioned that I was worried about eating in a place that warm because I’ve suffered heat related conditions in the past before, which makes one more prone to them.
They did seat me in front of a fan on the floor, so that was nice but I didn’t see any other fans for other customers.
The service was not that great once the food was served, our waitress never came not once to ask if we needed any more refills or anything else (so I didn’t really want to tip at all bc that’s not me, but I did tip $5).
I ended up drinking my daughter’s glass of water because everybody sat down to eat Including our waitress, and I felt bad getting up to ask any of them for anything, not even water.
I wasn’t sure if this is a passive aggressive behavior due to my AC comment, but I hope they are more professional than that.
Last comment was that my 18 y.o. and I agreed that the lemon chicken was dry.
The hot n sour soup was delicious and so was the fried rice. My daughter also liked her Thai tea. We loved the tomato beef.
Unsure if we’ll be back. We might give them another try. Maybe in the winter or to go.
