  The best thing in this restaurant was the cashier. The place was clean and the serving ingredients size decent. The pepper icons on the menu mean nothing. I could have fed the 2 pepper Mongolian beef ordered to a newborn spice wimp...and they could have eaten it without crying. The dish itself was bland. There were no spicy sauces out. I had to ask at the counter and only received a condiment cup full. The veggie egg roll was overcooked. The shell rated on higher on the hardest scale than my old Mazda. The cheese dumplings were tasty, but also overcooked. I would not recommend the place to an enemy.

  I love this place. My plan is to eat here frequently enough for the staff to know me by name and ask how my kids are doing. Maybe I'll be able to mentor one or two of them as life long relationships are formed over bowls of perfectly prepared noodles and dumplings.

  I'm a fan and I went today for the first time.
  
  I was happy with the concept of building your own dish from different rices/noodles, sauces, vegetables, and proteins. Everything was cooked properly, and care was taken in the presentation. For the price (which is great, by the way), you're given a decent sized portion that most people wouldn't be able to eat in one sitting, so be ready to take it to go.
  
  A few flaws, which don't ruin it at all.
  
  -They need to find a way to add tofu to the menu. Vegetarian options are important for any Asian-esque restaurant. If that isn't possible, allowing a substitution for proteins for extra veggies would be smart.
  
  -The fried rice I had was a little underwhelming in terms of flavor. This was easily remedied with YumYum sauce, which is the typical yellow sauce in this type of cuisine. I just feel like rice shouldn't be a throw away and add condiments to make it edible thing. If you're going to season it, season it. Can't fault them too much as most places are guilty of this.
  
  - Place was out of pork when I went. Luckily, the steak was more than enough to make up for it.
  
  -You have this wonderful restaurant with great food, but no viewable menu. I had to wait until I was at the register to grab a menu to even know what there was. They have a ton of real estate to do it too. It was almost notably missing. I wonder if one is in the works?
  
  All in all, a great job with a few kinks to work out. I will be returning and probably many times.
  
  Update: A return on Jan 31st earns a promotion to 5 stars. It's almost like they read my review. Still no overheard menu, but menus are available before the pay counter now. Rice was flavorful on its own this time, and the steak was fantastic.
  
  Place was still out of pork, but that's not enough to overcome the positive qualities and continue to dock them a star.
  
  Well done.
