OMG! Where should I begin? I've only had hibachi food in Vegas at Volcano Grill and it was ALWAYS amazingly good and fresh.
Since I have probably eaten at every Chinese restaurant in the valley and beyond, from coast to coast, this was the worse food experience I have had.
I ordered a little after 10 pm; BOGO edamame and the rockstar fried rice.
The expected delivery time constantly changed. I actually watched a full episodic show before the food arrived.
The food FINALLY arrived closer to midnight, which was the latest arrive time.
The driver was pseudo polite. As soon as he handed me my order I could tell there was something missing. I tried to call him but the recording claimed it didn't recognize my number that I'be had for over 15 years...hmm.
So I went inside because my stomach was touching my spine. I opened the bag and my intuition was correct. There was only one of the two garlic edamame's ordered, which was fine because it was cold and there was absolutely NO garlic anywhere in sight or taste. Disappointing!
I checked the Rockstar fried rice, which included chicken, steak and shrimp. The presentation was meh but looked like it may be fresh; it wasn't. My go to is usually rice or potatoes. So, excited, I took a spoon to mix up the ingredients since the protein sat on top of the rice; it was old, cold and smelled and tasted like someone dumped Cumin and sesame seeds on top before packing.
The steak was tender and so was the chicken but, the shrimp were overcooked because they were tiny like popcorn shrimp; is that oxymoronic?
The entire order was disgustingly disappointing, almost inedible if it wasn't for the two proteins (chicken and steak). You could literally count the amount of shrimp (2-3 pcs.) chicken (maybe 5 diced pieces and a few even smaller bite size steak pieces. It was a waste of money and the time it took to choose and place the order.
It reminded me of the pandemic where there was no quality control. If you have the audacity to be open and call yourself a restaurant, you should have the goal of serving and selling food that you can be proud of. I'm a chef and this order would have NEVER gone out.
One set of utensils, no soy sauce.
Don't walk, run as far away from this place because there is NOTHING rockstar about it except for the bad behavior or in this instance awful food.
Pros:
Nothing
Cons:
Extremely long wait times.
Cold and old food.
Missing food.
Missed notes.
Simply not worth the wait, time or effort.
Possibly a great concept but, poor execution. They should have paid me for this meal, not the other way around!
I wouldn't recommend this place to an enemy. I had to throw it all away after taking a bite of each item ordered.
