I wanted tofu with added string beans ( additional $5) and added bean sprouts (additional $4) Who charges these ridiculous prices for VEGETABLES???!!!??? I could have easily made this dish at home My husband did love his shrimp with lobster sauce We were unimpressed by the generic Fortune Cookies.

The food for jja jjang myun is sweeter than normal. The noodles were soft and not chewy.

I went here recently as an adult to get the nostalgic feel, and it hit instantly when I walked in... I see the Chinese decor, the zodiac paper under the plates, the koi fish tank, and the smell of authentic Chinese food. The food overall was decent; I really enjoyed getting the fried chicken, lumpia, and egg rolls. Some of the noodles dishes and vegetables dishes we got were a little too mushy for my liking and a little bit too drenched. Overall though, I still liked the food, and it's a good price for doing family style. I do enjoy the fact that they have a parking lot, and the server was very friendly when it came to taking our order and making sure we had everything we needed. He packed up the food for us when we left and even took a couple pictures for my family.

So so disappointed in the food. I ordered potstickers and a small shrimp fried rice. I picked up at their location, My total was 11.90 which I'm a little unsure about but threw out my receipt . The potstickers were tiny and steamed. I prefer fried but they didn't ask. My 'shrimp fried rice' had no egg, no veggies, and 4 shrimps. It was just onion and grease. I mean onion and rice. Maybe you like it that way? I prefer eggs, and veggies. These are just my food preferences. ..maybe you disagree. I posted a pic of my rice. read more

***Update: As you can see, the owner has decided to reply unprofessionally to my review, rather…read morethan reaching out to solve the issue. I'll let his response to my concerns speak for itself. My family has been coming to this restaurant for years, which makes this experience not just disappointing, but very upsetting. We placed a pickup order totaling over $100. When I arrived, I was told our order had been given to another customer. Instead of immediately apologizing and remaking the food, the front desk employee spent several minutes trying to find the order, then called the customer who took it and asked him to come back with the food so it could be given to me. This is an obvious food safety issue. Once food leaves a restaurant, it should never be redistributed. When I calmly said I was not comfortable taking food that had already gone to someone else's home, the employee argued with me extensively, insisting it hadn't been touched. I had to repeatedly ask for the food to be remade. When the other customer returned, the employee made a pointed comment that the food would be thrown away "because we have to remake it," while looking directly at me. This felt accusatory, uncomfortable, and inappropriate, especially since the mistake was not mine. After waiting over 40 additional minutes, I was still charged the full amount. When I politely asked whether there would be any consideration for the delay, I was told, "No, we already lost money on you." Being spoken to that way after showing patience and understanding was shocking and deeply unprofessional. Unfortunately, the situation did not end there. When we later called, the same employee refused to provide a manager or owner's contact information, and refused to let us speak with a manager. We asked the employee for her name and she replied "What's YOUR name and what's your problem?" That comment alone reflects a serious lack of professionalism. We emailed management twice to address what happened and have received no response. Mistakes happen, but what is unacceptable is arguing with customers about food safety, making them feel blamed for expecting safe food, speaking to them disrespectfully, and then ignoring follow-up. Management should take this feedback seriously, because this experience reflects poorly on their business. We are very sad to no longer be customers of PNS after many years of enjoying their food.

Our only grumble is their nickel-and-diming customers for sauces and rice, which should be included in the price of the meal. But they do have a generous rewards program.
