She stared at us, no smile, no hello, no thank you. I would not return here solely for the horrible customer service of the lady at the front. Food was not good, bland, no true flavor for being a Chinese restaurant- as Chinese cuisine tends to be very flavorful and delicious. This place is not it - save your money. Their food is not that great for the owner to be treating customers so horribly. Would not return and do not recommend.

Went straight into the trash can, we couldn't even eat it.

I guess Panda Express is the only fast food place in the country that uses the actual size dimensions - small means really small, but the large is more a medium. Strike 1: All 3 containers were filled 75% at the most. If you're already stingy with your portion size, at least fill it 100%. Strike 2: The so-called Super Greens were mostly cabbage, nothing super about it. There was some broccoli, but I did not see any kale or spinach. Strike 3: This pathetic "dinner" came to a total of almost $17.00. That's a pretty steep price for small portions that don't even taste all that great. I've had regular Chinese mall food court that tasted better. At best, Panda Express is a glorified Chinese mall food court chain, nothing special. Don't waste your money - you'll leave hungry.

I have been eating here on/ and off for years since it opened. It is a nice little date spot for my husband and I. We moved away years ago and are now moving back to town and the place still has memories for us. The food is is similar to all small chinease restraunts, nothing spectacular, but it is quiet and good. read more

Nicely decorated and lots of space to eat and take pics. You can have parties and weddings here. The food is Liberian and it's cool to try new things. We tried the dessert with coconut flakes and flour and something else. Both were good. They also have corn bread. For 2 small pieces it cost $4.82 (see pics). A bit dry so you will enjoy them more with a milk like drink or water. We didn't try the food yet but it looked good and many dishes come with fufu which is a mix of Cocoyam, cassava, and saffron and is like mashed potatoes. Try it and support your local West African small biz owners .

We opted to eat in the bar and the one bartender was running the whole place. While service times were extremely slow it was not for a lack of effort on her part, but a lack of staffing. The food was not good at all. One dish was not what was ordered (steak) and the other (Chicken Kiev) was cooked to an absolute crisp and so dry it felt like eating jerky. I am sad to see such a decline in an establishment that I remember fondly, but time marches on I guess

The cheese curds were perfect and the sauce was good. The garlic naan was perfect. I ended up ordering chicken tenders to round out the meal. They actually came to life with the mint chutney dip. Omg. I love authentic Indian food and chicken tenders are so far from that, but wow! What a greatnway to add a little meat to your veggie dish! They might have been short staffed this day, as I had to ask for water refills a few times, but no biggie. I will come back if I'm in town again. I was a little put off by some diners who were letting their kids run and scream in the dining room. They never were able to control them. I love kids, I have several grandchildren about the same age as them. But it was very disrespectful to the restaurant staff and the diners who came to enjoy a meal.
