Flat Top Grill
It’s a good place for those who want to customize their stir fry experience by adding your own sauces and flavors and ingredients. The inside is lovely and you are able to choose separate meat or non meat in addition to adding all the Veges and ingredients that you like. You also have an option to choose a pre listed ready made dish by the kitchen. But I would say it’s more fun to add your own stuff and sauces. The food came out cooked well and hot and the server brings it to your table once you leave your bowl and sauces at the counter. The veges in the buffet style area were not very (thus the 4 stars) fresh but the variety was good as well as the sauces. And you have to do a balancing act to put as much as you can into a small bowl. I think for the price of $17.99 per person they should give you much bigger bowls. You can add scrambled eggs or white cheese or extra bread to your dish for an extra $0.75 and they will add it for you when they cook your compilation. One piece of Roti bread comes w the $17.99 per person meal (the one you choose your own stuff). Overall a nice experience. The reason I give it 5/5 is solely because of the elevator that they have for those who are in wheelchairs or in pain (!!! Great job) but as for the food … not all the veges were fresh and the bowl you add your veges to is very small so you can’t fit much in it (so add the sauces separately in plastic containers they give you on the side) and for this it’s $17.99 which I think is a bit pricey but it does include 2 meats which they add at the end separately and it was a decent amount). So enjoy! The wait staff were very nice and sweet. The elevator is inside the restaurant as soon as you enter for about 3-4 steps, which is really fine for people who need assistance with wheelchairs, which I haven’t seen in most restaurants anywhere in the world.
The food was great. You can create your own dish with exactly what you want and they cook it on the grill. Good vegetables and very kind staff.

The food is awful here. I have ordered xia long bao, and those were more like pierogi, very thick skin and almost no juice. And their “famous” double cooked pork was way too salty, oily, and quite dry. Instead of the oolong tea they brought ginseng oolong. I don’t mind that, but still.. The 2nd star I give only for the sesame balls. I strongly believe that both, dumplings and sesame balls are store bought, not handmade. Paid $60! Crazy expensive for such a meal. Q
We came to this location for lunch as we heard they had some solid lunch specials. You can get an entrée, a side of rice, a veggie roll, and a drink all for around $12. I ordered the fried rice with the dry chili chicken. The fried rice was quite good, and the chicken was decent with a nice crisp, but was a bit too salty for my taste. The portion size was good for the price. The service was friendly, and the food came out quickly. Clean, well-kept restaurant. Worth a shot if you like Asian food and are looking for a lunch deal!
