    Piece of chicken, spit it out to see this travesty
    Julie C.

    Upon my first bit I about broke my jaw on a giant piece of bone in the General Pso's chicken. Pretty pissed at this insane hazard. Had to dissect every piece from there on out.

    Got the General Taos chicken. Good portion size, pretty cheap. My new go to Chinese place.

    Fastest take out West of the Mississippi! Is this the best Chinese food in the city? Oh, heck no! But the food is pretty edible for fast food Chinese, the portions are huge, prices are great and the staff are nice. They also do delivery! A couple of minor annoyances: -For dine in customers, they serve the food on styrofoam plates. I see room for the use of more environmentally-friendly materials. -On their paper menu, they have a "skinny" section where they claim that dishes with shrimp and chicken are cholesterol free. Um, there are no cholesterol free critters on the earth. If you want cholesterol free, you have to go vegetarian. They do have plenty of veg options. Overall, though, I really like this place for what it does, because it serves a purpose and does it pretty darn well.

    The worst crab Rangoon I've ever had. At least it was cheap and ready fast! Unfortunately that's all I ordered.

Tucked away in a cute shopping district is Penny's! We had no idea what we were walking in to but I am so happy to have found it! As you walk up you are greated by colorful upside down umbrellas with flowers inside, the water feature and the outside dinning! If it wasn't so hot I would have demanded sitting on the patio! As we were promptly seated in started hearing a "tink tink" sound and looked up. Yall!! The cutest glass hummingbirds were hanging from the ceiling. It was stunning!! Ok, the food!!! I had the crab fried rice which my husband had to help me finish because it was a huge amount! Share if you can but with the understanding you might fight over the last bite. If you still have room after dinner get the butter cake! Ladies, it is worth the calories! The waiter was prompt and had us with drinks in no time! This is an absolute do again if we are ever in the area!

The restaurant is nice and quaint. It wasn't super busy at the time we got therr which was good. Service was amazing, just like it is at Bamboo Penny. We both ordered tye Pad Thai. Mine with no peanuts with chicken and steak. Hubs had peanuts and chicken, steak, and shrimp. He also had a drink that looked like water but definitely wasn't. He said it was tasty. I had a Coke. Overall, a nice substitute if you can't get to Bamboo Penny. The only thing that was different was I wasn't offered the different sauces/spices to add to the Pad Thai.

I did have one incident where I waited about 2 hours and they ended up being out of shrimp, potatoes, and sausage. It was a holiday, so I gave them some grace because I know things can get crazy. What really stood out to me was how they handled it. I reached out to their business page, and the owner, Mr. Kevin, personally contacted me and wanted to make it right--no questions asked. That spoke volumes to me and showed they actually care about their customers. Even during the chaos, the staff stayed friendly and professional. Nobody was rude, and the music playlist was on point the whole time. When I came back a few days later, Mr. Kevin made sure my order was done correctly, quickly, and with great service. As a seafood lover, Krab Kingz is good in my book and will continue getting my money. Great food and great customer service go a long way!

We shared the mashed potatoes and spinach, and enjoyed sparkling water with our meal. What really stood out was the exceptional service. We didn't arrive until 9:20 p.m., just 40 minutes before closing, but we never felt rushed. The staff treated us with genuine kindness and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. The food was outstanding. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. You would never have guessed they were close to closing--the quality was just as impressive as if we had been there much earlier in the evening. If you're looking for amazing food, outstanding service, and a restaurant that consistently delivers a great dining experience, I highly recommend Eddie V's. We'll definitely be back!

The service was attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the entire meal. I started with my go-to appetizer, the calamari, which is consistently one of my favorites. It's always perfectly cooked and never disappoints. I also tried the 24K cocktail, and it was refreshing, smooth, and absolutely delicious. For my entrée, I ordered the lamb chops, and they continue to be the best lamb chops I've had--perfectly seasoned, tender, juicy, and cooked just right. We paired them with the crab fried rice and the lobster mashed potatoes, and both sides were incredible. The crab fried rice was full of flavor, while the lobster mashed potatoes were rich, creamy, and the perfect complement to the meal. Every bite was delicious, and the level of service matched the quality of the food. The staff is always warm, accommodating, and genuinely makes you feel like a valued guest. It's one of the reasons we continue coming back. Eddie V's has become one of our favorite special occasion restaurants because they consistently deliver exceptional food, outstanding service, and an elegant atmosphere. They simply never disappoint.

We shared the following and everything was very good: * Fried calamari: I liked the sweet chili sauce that dressed it rather than the traditional romesco sauce. * Crab cakes: The sweet-and-sour 'slaw and horseradish-mustard aioli were great accompaniments to the crab cakes. * Lobster bisque: This thick soup was full of lobster flavor...and butter flavor...and heavy cream flavor. * Filet mignon: I have had better steak elsewhere, but it was still good. * Carrot cake: There were 10 thin layers of alternating cream cheese and carrot cake, with a pineapple syrup drizzle.

Basically, there were no vegan options, except for the vegetable roll. I ordered that plus a bunch of vegetable sides. My server/bartender did due diligence to make sure they were all cooked in oil, no butter or animal fat. Really appreciated that touch of service. Started with the Bubbles & Berries cocktail, which is a hit because of the presentation using dry ice to give it a dramatic bubbling appearance. However, the drink is overall very sweet with the fresh berries & champagne. I could feel the impending hangover, so I didn't finish it. Although I didn't have a full portion vegan entree, I was plenty full with all my sides, which I did half orders of. Everyone at the bar is super friendly, and there seems to be a lot of regulars who know each other. I easily made friends. Bartenders were all amazing. Extra kudos to Denise, the private events manager. I booked a private room for my clients, and we did customized menus. They had a spectacular dinner and loved it. It was the highlight meal of their trip.
