I can't believe this place is still in business. The service is horrible and the food isn't that far off from the service that they provide either. First off there wasn't even a warm welcome. One of the workers just said a soft hello and just stood there. Didn't even direct us where to go or let us know that we could sit anywhere. Then came up to us to hand us the menu to quickly tune around and walk away. Another person came up and asked us what we would like to drink... after 10 mins they finally brought us some water. Like what were they doing back there? Chipping away ice to put in the cups or washing the dust off the cups since it looks like no one comes here at all. Or ever to put at that!! After the water was given, we placed our order.
We ordered the overly priced spicy tuna roll and the ramen with just vegetables.
Spicy Tuna Roll: like seriously? You're going to serve some nasty roll on plate and call it awesome? The tuna had a sour taste to it and it was discolored like as if someone had taken a syringe tried to suck out the color of that poor tuna. The rice wrapped around it had a pinkish tint to it thinking that it wasn't freshly made. Like it was just sitting in the rice cooker for a couple of days before they used it for us since... again! No one goes there. This was not worth the $8 that they had it priced on the menu. Even places who have better sushi have their basic rolls for $4-5.
Ramen with Vegetables: this was a sad sad desperate attempt to make something and call it restaurant quality ramen. This definitely tastes like the $.50 instant ramen that you get from Wal-Mart with a hard boiled egg and a couple pieces or huge nori in it. The "With vegetables" part was just some slices of scallions and a few disappoint pieces of cabbages floating around. If I knew this is what it was going to taste like, I would've just gone to Wal-Mart. This cost $5 when it probably only cost $2 to make. Sad attempt..
Service: other than the fact there was an obnoxiously long wait time with no friendliness at all, the fact that there are no soy sauce bottles on the table with the dipping dish is so strange. Do you not dip your sushi in soy sauce? Or do you just pour it all over the sushi to hide the horrendous taste?
Venue: No one else was there. We were the only ones there. The music wasn't that great and the TV were so distracting when trying to eat? Are you trying convey a sushi restaurant or a sports bar? Also, get new chopsticks. Why are you trying to embellish and sell off Pho King when you already have a name for yourself? Don't cut corners and try to save money by having products that represent other places.
Overall: sucked. Didn't even finish the meal since I had the fear of severe food poisoning and just left. Never going back there ever again. If you think that this place is a good bang for your buck, great! Have fun spending more money on your medical bills. read more
