    Our waiter was very helpful and kind. He was attentive as well as being in a good mood and patient as we tried to get our “Lettuce Entertain You” information. Always a good experience with service at this location and we all love the stir fry! We will definitely be back!

    Food was delicious & prompt after ordering. Appetizers are a bit pricey for the amount that you receive, but overall the food was good & the experience was satisfactory.

    Our meal was excellent. We got the shrimp and chicken stir-fry and 2 with fried rice and one got the cauliflower rice. DELICIOUS! I contemplated getting a meal to go Lol. We each other 3 different desserts (key lime pie, dark chocolate cake and pineapple cake) to share and they were delicious as well.

    The food was excellent. I had the king pao chicken. Which is usually spicy. This time it wasn’t but the flavor was still good. My spouse had the Mongolian beef and loved it. Service was a little sketchy in that our server was not consistent. One server took our drink order. A different server brought the drinks. A third server took our food order and a fourth server brought our food. The delay in service was noticeable so I wonder if there was confusion among the staff.

    We always seem to get the Mongolian Beef and the Sesame Chicken, preceded by egg rolls. As usual, the food was tasty, served hot, and quickly. Service was great, and Rosemary aptly helped us pick out the best pairings of noodles or rice. Prices are reasonable. One word of caution: the red onions in the chicken dish are potent. We'll be back.
