Dropped in for a last minute Lunar New Year dinner. Didn't have a reservation but got a table right away. Wouldn't have been the case if I got there 10 minutes later. The line was piling up as we ate. Food was delicious as usual. read more

After some time now passing over this spot due to the few mixed reviews we're so glad we checked it out for ourselves. Pricing was fair, seafood was so fresh & you can witness this in their tanks prior to ordering fyi lol. We ordered the Peking Porkchops, although not crispy, it was not dry & the sauce was perfection. Snail in the black bean sauce was really good & we drank every bit of the sauce up. Curry chicken perfectly spicy & they don't cheap out w/the cause here either. Oh then there's the salted fish chicken fried rice, if you know you know...chunks of salted fish & huge on flavor. Must try is the fried milk nuggies ppls!!!!!! Here's an OG Cantonese cuisine spot for sure....youre redone in advance! read more

Great, authentic, Cantonese style sit down restaurant. Having come here several times now, for lunch and dinner, I can say that my whole family has enjoyed every dish we've ordered. And they are very consistent. The food is always excellent. The seafood is fresh out of their fish tanks, of course. Compared to some of the great Chinese restaurants in downtown Flushing, this place is cleaner, less crowded, and offers the same great food at reasonable prices. And service has been more than adequate. Not great. But not bad for a Chinese restaurant read more

Came here for dinner. The ambiance is good and enjoyable. The service is attentive and pay attention to your need. The food comes out pretty quickly i'd say within 10-15 minutes on a busy night. The dishes were all well cooked, seasoned well, and fresh. But, the food can be quite greasy. It's like they pour tons of oil into the dish and serve to you. i'd suggest to filter most of the oil before serving to the customer. No kidding, pls look at my pictures, can see the oil at every dish. I'd suggest if the restaurant wants to improve quality, then it should filter most of the oil before serving to the customer. My two cents... read more

黑商 They are out here to get to scam money. Tried to give us extra dishes. And when they gave the wrong one near the END of our meal we said we didn't need it anymore. They proceed to make it again to add it at the very end. And just said "ohhhh sorry I didn't hear u". Really tried to give us extra dishes. We saw u mess up two years ago when u overbooked your takeout orders and dine in. We also personally experienced when you didn't wash your bowl and my grandma drank from your bowl with LIPSTICK STAINS on it. I don't know about others but clearly there's something wrong with your business to be letting all these mishaps happen and continue to fuck your way around with customers. Clearly you have absolutely no respect for your customers and forgive me for being harsh but you deserve no business and I pray for your timely bankruptcy. * Sorry for the rant, got REALLY triggered by their business methods read more

Solid 3, maybe 3.5 Stars for this visit. After reading some horrific reviews (mostly for takeout), I was hesitant to come to this restaurant. But someone invited us, so it wasn't my choice. lol For our first visit, there was 5 of us dining. Service was very good; food was ok. Maybe it was what we ordered; so I would definitely be willing to come back to try some of their other menu items. What I liked about this restaurant was that it was very low-keyed; not like the crazy busy and loud restaurants in Flushing. Our menu choices: - Tofu w.snow pea pods & mushroom: the waiter suggested we order this so we said ok. Not sure why this was recommended, since it was kind of boring and bland. (And expensive at $20.95!) - Snow pea shoots with preserved egg: this dish was ok; pretty standard; not really bursting with flavor though. - Whole Crispy Garlic Chicken: this was pretty good. A wedge of lemon would have made a world of difference. In hindsight, we should have requested some lemon. - Cumin Lamb Chops (6pcs): These were pretty good but would have been great if the meat were more seared to bring out the flavors. Also, the cumin flavors were super mild; bolder flavors and a good sear would have made this an outstanding dish. - Crispy Fried Flounder: hands down this was the fave dish of the night! Great flavor and nicely crispy without being overcooked Outstanding dish! Like I said, I would be willing to revisit this restaurant the next time we're looking for a Cantonese restaurant outside of Flushing. Maybe next time it will be worthy of 4 Stars! read more

Great Cantonese food. It's great to see many of the staffers here from the old Tung Yi Fung that used to be on 37th Ave in Flushing. I'm not 100% sure why the old stalwart closed down but given the pressures of COVID and the expansive footprint of the old restaurant, it just wasn't sustainable in the current climate of the pandemic. Happy Garden has far less sit down tables but the food actually is better seasoned then it ever was before. All my Cantonese favorites, as they were before, the salt and pepper & Peking pork chops, fried flounder, casseroles, and noodles. The one exception is the T-Bone steak which is quite frankly the wrong item to order in a Cantonese restaurant. The prices may be higher that your local generic Chinese takeout joint so if that's what your looking for, you should stay away. Happy Garden is definitely part of my new rotation of eats going forward. If there is one con, and I can see how it could be a huge detriment, it is the fact that the wait time for food can be maddening. With a smaller restaurant, I'm sure the kitchen is probably appropriately sized as well. There have been a few times when the wait has been tough but hey, it's 2021-2022 and we're still in a pandemic, load up on some patience before visiting if you want something tasty. read more

4 stars not for the dim sum, but for the stir fry dishes from the kitchen. Honestly, management was up front and told us the dim sum is not very good at the moment. They are transitioning to a new dim sum vendor and we should taste improvement in another week of this posting. The dim sum was pretty bland and can only be salvaged with heaps of hot sauce to masquerade or better impart some flavor. There is no cart service for dim sum since there is limited room between table spacing. The stir fry dishes from the kitchen were excellent though. The "Wok Hei" or better known as the "The Breath of the Wok" was plentiful as the satay beef vermicelli casserole and chicken haw fun was savory and delicious. The smokiness of the wok made it's way to the seared chicken and haw fun, a beautiful sight for the eyes, olfactory senses and palate. There are two private party rooms available. One room has one table and seats 14. The other room has two tables and looks like it can seat up to 25 people. Hopefully, the dim sum evolves and gets better with the new dim sun vendor. I'm looking forward to try the "newly improved" dim sum real soon. read more

If you were familiar with Good Kitchen Seafood Restaurant (or Tung Yi Fung) in Flushing, then you would enjoy Happy Garden Bayside. There are some familiar faces here, too. I have not tried the dim sum yet, but heard that there isn't as much variety as you would expect. I stopped in for dinner on a weeknight and was not disappointed. Great portion sizes and everything was tasty and well seasoned. We ordered the Sizzling Pepper Steak, Seafood Tofu Casserole and the Cantonese Ginger Scallion Lobster. I would definitely go back for dinner to try some of my old TYF favorites and the dim sum. read more

My parents like to go here to sit down to eat which is a sign that the food is good. I've gotten takeout and have sat down and will attest that the food when dining in is infinitely better than getting takeout. Anything fried or sautéed will end up soggy by the time you get back home to eat it. Pan-Fried Flounder was fried well and you're able to eat all the bones except for some of the inner bones which they take out. Would stick with getting lobsters by themselves or over noodles as the sticky rice version had the lobsters over cooked and stuck to the shells. I can confirm the service is not the greatest as you have to not only flag down a waiter to do anything (order/get refills on tea/get the check) or else they will completely ignore your table. And even if you were to wave at a waiter down you have to be assertive enough while doing it or they will still ignore you. One night was particularly busy and we asked to disregard a twin lobster over noodles dish that we had ordered so we could leave as we had already been waiting on it for 20ish minutes after all the other dishes that came out earlier had been finished. The waiter said to just wait a little bit and it would come out. So we waited for another 15 minutes and again asked for the check and got the same response. So stupidly we waited longer to be nice as we assumed maybe they had already started making it and when nothing came we had enough and told him to get check which he brought it, still had the item that never came as part of the bill. Would recommend going if you're desperate for good Cantonese food but be warned to not expect good service. If it's a near a holiday would recommend getting a reservation or they'll turn you away or have you wait for at least an hour. read more

The food here is decent if you're willing to spend the money. The items from the lunch menu and combos are subpar unless you dine in. The regular items are actually quite good and their portions are huge. If you're chinese, you'll understand their dishes have a lot of "wok hei". A lot of the reviews mentioned "scamming prices" but we haven't gotten anything priced per pound so we haven't run into any issues. My parents like to order their lobster but it's a set price. (2 for $XX), so we we knew the exact price of the dish. Service was okay, there were 2 large parties so the dishes came out in staggered times but we weren't in a rush. Overall, i'd come back if we're craving for family style chinese food! read more

Dined here with 6 friends and their service sucks. For 6 ppl they only served us 1 (ONE) pot of tea. We kept asking but they always forget to replenish. It wasnt busy since it was a Mon and there were lots of empty table yet, they never checked on us. Food came staggard. We got to wait to get our next ordered meal. Please dont come here. Horribly Poor Service. read more

I don't understand how this restaurant gets 2.5 stars. ??? I went there for lunch with my family today and the food was absolutely delicious...especially, the beef chow fun and the fish filet lunch special. They were both 9.99!!! The price is absolutely amazing and half the price at other restaurant. We will definitely go back for more. Everything was GREAT. read more

We came here for lunch and the beef chow fun and the fish fillet rice was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend. We also ordered the sesame chicken which was ok but stick to the other authentic dishes. Price was right and we ordered takeout for dinner the same day. Great Value! We will come back again. read more

Having more Cantonese restaurants in Queens outside of Flushing is great, but this place is very disorganized. The food takes extremely long (over an hour) to come out compared to other Cantonese restaurants I've gone to and the portions are pretty small for the price (dishes also seemed to come in a nonsensical order where tables who came after us got dishes before us). The seating is crowded with dirty dish carts visible and people waiting for their takeout at the front desk. The manager is kind of rude as well, but I get that he's trying to run a very busy and understaffed restaurant. Would recommend going to Lake Pavilion nearby if craving good, fast, and well portioned Cantonese food. The lunch menu on weekdays is good though when things aren't busy read more

Dishonest servers. This time, I took family visiting from overseas here, and the staff yet again sneakily overcharged us. Not an isolated event. My family has lived on Bell since 1980, and we always try to support local business(es) first. When they newly opened, they cleverly added on extra to the bill. You are only guilty when you correct the bill in an instant. When we referred to the menu's clear price, they were irritable and unapologetic they were caught. We have heard the exact scam from neighbors through the years. Again, on April 19, 2024 I paid a $200 bill and kept a record of my receipt--the waiters actually fudged my tip to give themselves an extra several dollars! (Fact: there is a zero "6+ party automatic gratuity system" in place here and, as a local teacher, my writing is crystal clear.) Completely dishonest, quite unfriendly (in general) all-male, and miserly service. Amongst several mains, we ordered two (tiny) whole lobsters and my mom asked for napkins for the table of 6. The server visibly unhappily handed my aunt 1 piece of napkin. My aunts are polite and needed a meal around the corner before a 6AM flight. Otherwise, we would've left. Stingy. Dishonest. (Convenient location.) They are going to tank as much as we support many local businesses. You do not steal from customers, who are your lifeline. (Many reviews speak for themselves here. Arrogant service and untrustworthy on repeat.) They don't have the knowledge of true service. Fluorescent lit and dead silent floor. It's always empty inside. They allow screaming karaoke to emit from their rooms throughout dining. If you wish not to be gouged every time you dine here, your family has been warned by mine. TO THE RESTAURANT: For the several dollars you stole, you lost hundreds in revenue. Not very smart computation of business skill there. read more

The service at Happy Garden Bayside Restaurant has deteriorated since our previous visits. It is disappointing when a place we used to enjoy changes for the worse. In all of our previous visits, the staff was attentive and accommodating to our dietary restrictions and allergies. Food was deliciously authentic and served in a timely fashion. We even recommended our family, friends and neighbors here. So we expected nothing less when we decided to reserve their VIP room for 16 people tonight. BUT WE WERE TERRIBLY DISAPPOINTED. Aside from dinner being served an hour later than then the reservation time, the forgotten appetizer platters, staff members continuously coming into our private room to grab supplies and then slamming the door behind them without asking if we needed anything, we were most enraged that after guaranteeing us that they can accommodate to our anaphylactic food allergy with PINE-NUTS... THERE WAS PINE-NUTS SPRINKLED ALL OVER THE TWO MARKET PRICED FISH DISHES! They refused to fix the orders and had the audacity to argue that we didn't tip them enough on the bill! Needless to say, this will be our last visit here and would no longer recommend this place to anyone else. read more

Even though I saw 2 1/2 stars for Happy Garden, I've been in this game long enough to know that if you're savvy in doing your research, you can still find good restaurants despite the questionable rating. This is why I decided to give Happy Garden a try. For all you Yelpers, be discerning and examine where all these 1 star reviews are coming from, which explains everything. Happy Garden is conveniently located on a busy part of Bell Boulevard with a plethora of restaurant choices. It's one of the very few genuine Cantonese restaurants in the area with a full menu of Cantonese specialty items. Judging from what I saw on the menu, it's a great option for a full Cantonese dinner. We went on a Saturday afternoon. The waiters greeted us and we were quickly seated. What caught my eye immediately were the Cantonese specialty dishes which were pictured on one side of the dining room wall. These dishes were mainly seafood, yet the prices seemed very reasonable. The dining room itself was very bright, with white textured walls. I loved the instant energy it seemed to give the room. The menu is a two-sided card with section divided into the usual seafood, soup, pork, chicken and beef sections. What caught our eye especially, were two sections. A Jiangnan Style Special section of the menu, and a "Three Dishes with Soup" section where you could order three family-style entrees with white rice for $41.95. Because I usually have difficulty settling on one or two entrees, I thought $42 was a decent price for a variety of dishes. Jiangnan will have to wait. For appetizers, we ordered the soup dumplings. They also gave us bowls of hot and sour soup. The three mains were a chicken salted fish and tofu casserole, salt pepper pork and salt pepper squid. We also wanted to try a noodle dish and ordered a pan fried Cantonese mei fun. Every dish we got was standard good Cantonese fare. The mei fun was chock full of a variety of meats. Surprisingly, the one dish that wasn't Cantonese, the soup dumplings, was surprisingly good. There's only 5 to an order, but I could tell that they were made from scratch. Overall, I liked our first experience at Happy Garden. The prices weren't in the high 20's which many Cantonese places are these days. There should always be a mid-tier Cantonese option in my book and to me, this is the place. read more

Happy Garden Bayside Restaurant - Receipt of what we ordered - Chinese Near Me - Bayside, New York

Deceitful - posted up a low price on the store front but charged a much higher price. Dry duck, tough chicken and how do you mess up sautéed vegetables that badly!? The pan fried noodles tasted good except there wasn't enough sauce so only 1/4 of the noodles were tasty, the rest was dry. Lobster was ok, crab barely had any meat and the Peking duck buns were mediocre. I went to pick up the food, they said 10min but it actually took closer to 40min...they could have just given me a realistic time so I didn't have to wait there! read more

Cantonese cuisine fairly decent...especially since Bayside has a relative dearth of classic Chinese restaurants. We sat down, ordered and had to wait a whole hour before any food came. Even though it was Saturday night, they were way too short staffed. Not fair to us and all the people waiting to eat and waiting so long to get food. Also waiter was rude and brusque. Also beware of food substitutes-- they may've run out of your dish and will try to mix/match some substitute components. Just make sure you get what you order to minimize confusion when the bill comes and some items cost more while others cost less. They tried to offer us lobster noodle dish- we vehemently said no. Also the seafood roll with conch was out and they instead gave us tofu w conch (but they gave us extra conch and were charging us more than standing tofu w conch meal) The food was decent. The wait time was unreal. We were so upset. Plus the waiter was arguing and extremely rude to us. What a shame to have this type of restaurant ruined by the service read more

Had a great experience for a late Saturday dinner. There were familiar faces from the former team at Tung Yi Fung restaurant in Flushing. We ordered our typical Cantonese dishes such as crispy skin chicken with garlic, peking pork chops, walnut shrimp, pea shoot leaves sauteed in garlic and oil, clams with black bean sauce and twin lobsters in scallion ginger sauce. Everything was tasty. Glad to see another reliable option for Cantonese food outside of Flushing. read more

A newly opened Cantonese Seafood Restaurant on Bell Blvd. I had: 1. 7.5 lbs Alaskan crab eaten in two ways: crab legs steamed with egg white and garlic, crab roe fried wild rice. The wild rice had no taste with the crab roe. The texture was hard. No one in my party likes it. 2. Fish in two ways: Fish soup with Mustard greens, Stirred fry fish fillet with vegetables. The soup is tasty and fish fillets were meaty 3. Stirred fry Stone snails 4. Vegetable Overall the experience was good and I will return to try more dish. read more

This is a very authentic Cantonese place located in the area. The food were very delicious and the servers were extremely helpful. We ordered the lobsters on sale and it tasted great. The crispy chicken was crispy outside and tender inside, exactly what I was looking for. The speed of dish was extremely quick, probably because we came at 8:30 and most people had already finished ordering. At the end of the meal they gave us free orange and sweet soup. If you are looking for some great Chinese food experience I would recommend this. read more

Usually if an Asian restaurant has lots of Asian customers, it means the food is good. Unfortunately this was not true in this case. We had the lobster, salted squid, shrimp with broccoli, and beef with Chinese broccoli. Every dish was bland with little or no flavor. The lobster was on special, 2 lobsters for $29.99. Would have been a good deal but the lobsters were very small, definitely under a pound each. Too many other options in the neighborhood to go back here. Not going back. read more

My family lives in the area and we are always on the lookout for good authentic Chinese food. I did have some reservations since there were so many low ratings but I'm happy to report we were pleasantly surprised. We came for dinner on a Thursday night, there were a few other tables of diners and a private party. The decor was bright and clean pretty standard for a Chinese restaurant. We were greeted and seated immediately and we recognized some familiar faces from Dong Yi Feng in Flushing which closed. I should mention we loved Dong Yi Feng for dimsum and I had a few private parties there in the past. So I was hopeful the food would be good. We ordered Salted fish with chicken and eggplant, jellyfish, beef chow fun, mayo shrimp, and the greens with the thousand year old egg and salted egg on top The dishes were presented nicely and portions were on the large side. I have to say everything was prepared well, I haven't had jellyfish in a while and it was so delicious, the greens were fresh and crisp, he eggplant perfectly prepared. I am a big critic of chow fun and I have to say they prepared this dish very well, the noodles we smooth and very tasty. The meateaters loved the chicken dish and said the beef was a nice texture and very flavorful. They also enjoyed the mayo shrimp the perfect ratio of mayo to shrimp, sometimes this dish goes terribly wrong. The service was good not overly attentive but appropriate. We were all so happy with dinner and even happier to have leftovers for the next day. I'm very excited to try their dimsum and hope the experience will be the same if not better. Definitely will be back with my husband and in-laws. read more

Happy Garden Bayside Restaurant - Chinese Near Me - Bayside, New York

We were very excited to see a Cantonese restaurant in Bayside. We've been here 3x and results have not changed. 1. The first time was soft opening with bad service. Food was so so at best. Best dish was fried flat noodles with beef (beef chow fun). Had two other dishes which was poorly made. Dishes were also small for the price. 2. We gave them another shot and benefit of the doubt after the soft opening lack of service and so so food in hopes they'd have improved after a month. Huge mistake. No change. Dishes actually got smaller but service didn't degrade. We were told they'd serve dim sum soon and asked us to return. Btw $30 for 2 lobsters seem like a deal but note that they're small lobsters. More like a giant shrimp at best. 3. We went back in August to try out their dim sum and hope it would be better than the last two dinner experiences. Dim sum dishes were worse than the dinner dishes. The shrimp dumplings (har gow) skins were thick and stuck to the dishes. Other dim sum dishes were poorly made and unauthentic. All dishes are overpriced. Give this a pass... read more

This is a good size restaurant with a large outdoor seating area. They take reservations. There is a wait on a weekend nights. The food was a little salty but okay. They have signs with specials but it's all written in Chinese. The waiters will try to push the expensive dishes. Best to go with someone that has been there before or can recommend dishes ahead of time. Their big thing is sea food. If you don't know ask questions! Large parties are welcome! read more

My family came here for some authentic Cantonese cooking, and left mortified and quite frankly, embarrassed for the establishment. We ordered our dishes, and noted quickly that the beef was not fresh. We let our waiter know, who promptly removed the dish. A few minutes later, the very same waiter comes out with a spoon...on top of which, was a half-bitten piece of beef. While chewing, he yelled across the room that the beef was fine. We sat there completely in shock! The beef was discolored and had an awful stench. We did not ask for a refund. We simply sent the dish back, and continued our meal. There was no huge production from our end. My baby sat next to me as he continued to berate us for sending the dish back. We finished our meal, paid, and left promptly. Simply said, this is not how to treat customers...this is not even how to treat people. We were mistreated, and threatened by this man. There should be a mutual respect and shared professionalism. Clearly, this establishment does not prioritize their customer experience. read more

Wow wow wow. Ordered and paid FOUR days in advance for Chinese New Year eve. They told us our order would be ready for 6PM pickup. It is 8:10PM we have waited over two hours, no update, no nothing. This is the most unprofessional behavior. Kitchen is very clearly unable to handle large orders. Fuck 1 star they deserve 0. Keep your money go anywhere else. read more

I typically never give one star reviews, but I am blown away by how unorganized and unprofessional Happy Garden is. Our family ordered food for Chinese New Year FOUR days in advance and prepaid in advance for a 6 pm pick up, and we were stuck waiting in the restaurant for over 2 hours. We weren't the only people since there was a line out the door with people experiencing the same issues. It got so crowded that we went and sat in the car outside for an hour. I felt bad for the families sitting down to eat with no food on the table because the kitchen clearly could not handle the volume of orders or reservations. I wouldn't have minded waiting if they called us to let us know they were running behind. Finally at 8:15 (2 hours and 15 minutes later), I asked if I could just have what was ready and have my money back. The waitress said no and gave me 5 dishes - 3 of them were not mine. She said to just take them and leave - so we did and went home to celebrate our new year with random meals. I'm glad we were still able to celebrate as a family, but the whole process was stressful and unprofessional. The food was also cold because it was sitting out for so long. I hope Happy Garden can get their kitchen under control, but I won't be coming back. read more

0 star! **please read** The worst dining experience we have ever gotten from any restaurant. Our family went on a Sunday after 7pm, it was busy inside so they sat us outside for outdoor tables. 7 of us and gave us 2 menus. We waited for 20 mins before a server come by and take our orders. That's it. The next time a server come by was after 45 mins wait and served us one bowl of soup. The pork ribs is trash after we waited 1 hour, all bones and looks exactly like a plate of dog bones from petsmart. Then the chicken dish finally served but it was not what we ordered. The lady then told us what we ordered was sold out so they served us fried chicken and basically force us to take it. We said no and please send it back to the kitchen. After 1.5 hours wait, only 1 soup, 2 veggies, 1 fish dish, and 1 'dog bone' served. We had enough, our kids are hungry. May I remind you, no server stop by our table to refill hot water for the tea or check on us.We marched into the cashier where the server was and asked them to cancel whatever food they haven't prepared and give us the check. We are ready to go. After a few minutes, instead of a check, the same server brought out another 2 dishes and started to shout at us. It was nonstop shouting in Chinese for minutes. We didn't touch the food and ask the Manager to come to our table. It's unacceptable for his shouting at customers like us. We also have small children as well. The same server came back and continue on shouting and said we are hurting his business etc., we explained calmly that we waited for 1 hours and 30 some minutes, still a few orders haven't arrived, and our kids are hungry. Instead of apologizing, he continued to shout loudly. The manager came out and he didn't help at all. He took out the price of the items that didn't served but he said he's doing us a favor. Is that how you treat a customer? No apology and continue agreeing with his server. We didn't shout or fight back. We just want to pay and leave. If you are reading this, please DO NOT go to this restaurant! Not only food is below average, the service is far below acceptable. Completely ruin our Sunday family dinner. I highly recommend any other restaurants on bell blvd. read more

Currently waiting for our Chinese New Year dinner. Prepaid in advance for 6pm pick up and it is 7:50... tons of other people also stuck waiting. Place is a disaster and food isn't even that great so not worth the wait at all. Poor customer service and plenty of better options close by. Avoid at all costs. Only stuck here because of a CNY promo but will never come back again. read more

The worst ever!! Reserved a private room and order a 10 pounds king crab in advance. When we got there, waiters are not too friendly. We were seated and waiter just asked how we want the crab prepared. While we were talking and "Bang" the crab were serve. They had never show us the live crab like other restaurants did and the crab is small! During dinner, these waiters hardly come into the room. At the end when we got the check, numbers were all over the check?! We paid the largest amount as our total bill plus tip in cash and left.. Two waiters came out to chase us said we didn't pay enough. They never added the total on the check!! Services was horrible, waiters are rude and disgusting! read more

If I could give zero or negative stars to this place I would. Reserved the large room for 16 people and placed a $200 deposit and also laid out our menu several days before the dinner including details of food allergies. Arrived in time with the entire group and waited over an hour before any food was served and did not even ask if anyone wanted drinks. You could count on one hand how many times they've en checked in on the room the entire dinner. The biggest offense was they brought the both orders of fried fish out topped with copious amounts of pine nuts which we explicit in saying that someone had a severe allergy to that could result in anaphylactic shock. Not only did the waiter not apologize but said we cannot send this back it's too expensive. Food overall was mediocre but the service and overall lack of any customer service makes this place an absolute zero. Come time to to settle up and since we waited over an hour to be served, brought out something that someone is deadly allergic to we only left 10% tip. This rude ass waiter has the nerve to argue with us in Cantonese that the tip is not enough after this terrible experience. In order to avoid an altercation with this low life we tossed a bit more cash walked out of there. Never ever coming back here and not recommending this place to anyone ever. read more
