Second, the staff is very friendly and do their darndest to satisfy the customers. But I can't. First, there's the decor. The restaurant seems to be in a state of redecoration, with odd things left in odd places. When we walked in we weren't even sure if they were open for dine-in as most of the orders seemed to be to go. The food is OK. It's not spectacular, I think Ming Yen and China Palace are far superior. Green bamboo was better too, but alas they closed last year. The dishes we had - soup, cashew chicken, prawns - were all fresh for sure, but the flavors weren't there. It somehow tasted a bit inauthentic (not as bad as Panda though!) Overall, I have to say it was "OK", and that translates to 3 stars. We have decided to give it one more try for dinner, maybe the experience will be different. Let's hope so!

I was also hooked on their smoothies while I was pregnant! The staff is super friendly and the food is ready quickly. They also offer curbside pickup through the app!! It's a great spot to hang outside when the weather is nice. We bring many friends and visitors here, and they are always impressed. Truly something for everyone on the menu.

Let's talk about the staff. They are the most helpful and very friendly. If you are ordering cake for a special occasion, they will definitely help you pick out the right one. And you won't be disappointed. I go there for lunch and my favorite thing on the menu is the ham and brie cheese sandwich. You can either get salad with it on the side or potato salad. For breakfast, I love to get the avocado toast. My husband always tries to sneak in some cookies to take home. They are also delicious. So all it's a great place to go and the food is divine.

They rush out mains even if you barely start your appetizers. They constantly stare at you when you eat. Waiting till you are a few bites from finishing a plate then immediately rush over and take the plate without asking if you are done. They constantly hover over tables like vultures. They push ordering desserts when we are still eating the mains. They won't allow us to have a conversation or actually enjoy the food. The service is rude and has no manners. While the food is still good the servers are terrible. Good job on turning off long term customers.
