    The orange rind is almost as long as the beef. Maybe chop in small pieces or zest the orange.
    LoriAnn P.

    The good: Service was excellent. My dragon punch cocktail was great. The egg rolls were good. Waiter was perfect! The bad: My mandarin orange beef dish had large pieces of orange rind and the beef was fried and had a burnt taste- as if the oil needs changed. I like orange rind but not a 2 inch piece to chomp on. Panda Express taste way better. I have dined at this establishment many times over the years. Food seems to have gone down hill. My daughter's "dinosaur tenders" were also overcooked and definitively the oil needs changed. Ambience was ok but restaurant could use a remodel. Bathroom is dated, dingy and dark. Definitely feels like 2000 and not 2026.

    I came back here to update my previous four star review. These last two times I have come, Molly Woo's has been exceptional. I am not sure whether they have made any staff changes, or changes to the menu, but everything was excellent. Our server was very friendly. He caught wind that one of the people at our table was celebrating his birthday, and brought a desert of his choice. I appreciated him going above and beyond. The ambiance is as great as ever. If you're ever shopping at Polaris, do yourself a favor and check this place out! You will certainly not regret it.

    Thai Basil Scallops

    A Cameron Mitchell restaurant that reminds me of PF Chang's. The Thai Basil Scallops were absolutely delicious - it's the sauce! Wish there was more eggplant in the dish. Next time, I would order with extra veggies. The green bean dish was also delicious. I ordered a milk tea with boba to start. The boba had the look of tapioca pearls but had the consistency of jellies which was fine, just not what I expected. Our server was great and checked on us regularly. It was nice to sit at a round table with a large lazy susan for a party of 7.

    Lo Mein

    For being attached to a mall, I was impressed with the fancy exterior and interior that elevated the experience before taking my first bite. The mandarin-hued lighting set the scene perfectly and the outstanding service of our waitress was noticed and appreciated. She was pleasant in her demeanor, helpful in her recommendations, attentive to our table, and threw in some extra rice for our leftovers. In my mind, I figured that the food would balance out the good things mentioned above and be 'just okay'. Wrong! It was across the board good. The bao buns w/pork stood out as well the Szechuan green beans. Both the honey and firecracker chicken entrees were saucy and taste exactly how they sound. And do yourself a favor by upgrading your side dish from rice to the lo mein for $2. Molly Woo, you've made a fan out of me.

    Ginger-Crusted Salmon
    Barb H.

    Friendly and efficient service. Five of us dined and we all got our correct orders and separate checks, no problems. I ordered the Ginger-Crusted Salmon and it was good. I was surprised that it came with rice. No mention of that on the menu but not a bad surprise. I was also surprised that the bok choy was HOT and I mean choking hot. It clearly was seasoned separately from the other vegetables which were very mild, though they tasted fine.

    Stopped in the Monday before Christmas. The food and our server (gentlemen was also the bartender) were both 5 stars. Absolutely LOVED the crab Rangoon and Cali Rolls as well As our meals. What we didn't like was the manager (male with dark hair) talking down to his hostesses. He was so rude it made us uncomfortable. Do Better!!

    Honey Chicken
    Lee Ann P.

    This is such an underrated restaurant. With a cute on theme vibe, good service, and delicious food, this is a Cameron Mitchell spot that always hits. We went here recently for my brother's birthday and it reminded how awesome this place is. We split A LOT of different dishes including the calamari, crab Rangoon, spicy tuna roll, California roll, firecracker chicken (my favorite), honey chicken (I could do without this, it's good but other dishes are better), orange chicken, and Szechuan green beans (also a must). We also got the banana spring rolls for dessert which are a super tasty option if you're celebrating or have a sweet tooth. Don't skip out on this tasty Asian food spot

    I really wasn't in the mood for Asian food when we went to Molly's, but I needed something close that wouldn't be ridiculously busy on a Sunday evening and they did not disappoint. The inside is dim lighting, decorated with Asian flair, it's loud and lively. It's your typical Chinese-American dishes, they are of course a bit pricier, but totally worth it. We started with the calamari, potstickers, and volcano roll...OMG listen everything was sooo good. The volcano roll is probably one of my most favorites that I've had anywhere. The calamari was a tad bit salty and the smaller pieces a little over cooked, still pretty good though - I prefer it a bit crunchier than soggy. Potstickers were fantastic as well. For entrees we had the beef and broccoli, a beef lo mein, shrimp pad Thai, and the red snapper. They were all so so delicious. Honestly, I hate ordering fish at restaurants, this one was good, it was fried golden outside, flaky inside, and it tasted...idk...clean or fresh. Dessert was absolutely fabulous as well, the chocolate cake and crème brûlée were to die for. Our server was amazing as well, he was attentive, quick, and asked about allergies - which my son did have. So I was able to have my pad Thai without worrying that my son's food was contaminated. All in all it was a great dinner and the food was fantastic.

    We had a really great meal here! I love the lights and ambiance of the place, and the service was pretty quick! We absolutely loved the crab rangoon and both of our sushi rolls! It is a bit pricey but we overall really liked our meal and left happy!

    Asian Pear Fizz (L) and Dragon Punch (R) cocktails.
    Syed S.

    We went to Molly Woo's twice in a short span of time for a couple of celebration dinners. During both visits, we had exceptional service, the food quality was great, the portion size for the value was reasonable for a CM restaurant, and the ambiance was beautiful as always. The menu is large enough to cater to different taste buds. We tried the Asian Pear Fizz and Dragon Punch cocktails - both were decent, but not great. Our parties enjoyed the edamame and spring rolls from the appetizer selections. On one occasion, we tried the Volcano Roll, and I will certainly order it again the next time I am there. Among the entrees, there are quite a few fish options as well. We really enjoyed the Ginger-Crusted Salmon; however, the Red Snapper dish was also tasty. We also liked the Honey Chicken and the Garlic Chicken dishes. As great as the appetizers and entrée items are, save room for the Chocolate Cake - it was delicious! On both occasions, our servers were top notch. They were patient, made great recommendations, and were very efficient. Molly Woo's is yet another example of a very efficiently run CM restaurant where you know you will get an overall solid to great experience every time.

    Pretty good ambiance for a casual to slightly fancy meal. The food is safe, not bad but could be better. Definitely not authentic Asian but if you want to try something Asian themed with Western touch it's great. I would say it's like a fancier PF Chang's. When we visited, there was an option for a 3-course meal. Not sure if this is offered regularly. Portions are reasonably sized and good for the price. Service is nice and friendly.

    Can't believe I haven't been to Molly Woo's, when I love Cameron Mitchell restaurants so much. It's so refreshing into a restaurant knowing there are going to be lots of GF options, in fact they asked me right away if a GF menu was needed. Super cute inside, love the look, but we thought the music choice was not right- loud pop music just didn't fit and it took away from the experience a bit in my opinion. I ordered a sake to drink, it was recommended to me by the server and I didn't realize it would be sparkling, it was fine but not my fav. We ordered a spicy salon roll to start, it was pretty good but seemed to be missing something in its flavor profile. Not bad, but not incredible either, I'd probably skip it next time. For dinner I had a hard time choosing, there were so many options for me! I went with the kung pao scallops (gf) and he got combo lo mein with chicken and steak, skipping on the shrimp. We both wished our dishes had more veggies, just a personal choice we would add on next time. But I was happy with it, love having so many choices so I'll definitely be back.

    This place is my new favorite Asian restaurant. The service was impeccable. The food was even more impeccable. Price was not outrageous! Would certainly recommend.

I needed some cupcakes for a gathering, and I saw the reviews so I thought I'd give them a try. I got up early to be there when they opened so I could have a good selection. I was pretty disappointed when I got there and there weren't that many options. I was also surprised at how small they were. The decorative topping is very simple. Then, when they said they were $4 a cupcake, I was even more surprised. If I hadn't made all the trouble to get here and if I didn't really need the cupcakes, I would have gone someplace else. I thought to myself, these better taste amazing. I bought a dozen cupcakes and made sure I got at least one of each flavor. Once I got home, I dug into one, just to see how they were. Once again, I'm disappointed. They don't even taste fresh. WTH?! Now I'm regretting serving the rest of them, because what if they aren't good as well? So disappointed. I got feedback from those at my event and the consensus is these aren't good. All of the cupcakes were dry, crumbled and fell apart when you tried to eat them. What makes matters worse, the owners don't care.

The young lady that waited on us was friendly and helpful. The crowd wasn't too bad, I suspect it was the crummy weather that kept all the Ohioans inside today.

The display of chocolates was completely mesmerizing and contained a wide variety of truffles and handmade candy bars. The shop owner was very friendly and also gave recommendations on what to try. I tried only two truffles because I was so full from all the foods I tried before: Lavender Hand Rolled Truffle: The truffle itself was very dense and rich with a strong presence of cocoa. Every bite melted in my mouth just like any good quality chocolate. What ruined this one was the lavender flavoring which was so overpowering that all I could taste was cocoa and lavender. Vietnamese Cinnamon Hand Rolled Truffle: I really enjoyed this one. The cinnamon and honey in the truffle paired perfectly with the strong cocoa flavor and the chocolate itself was very rich. If I was ever in the area again, I would probably come by to try their handmade candy bars and white chocolate items.
