This is the third time I had bad service here. I hadn't. gone back for almost 2 years because the last time I was there I got our appetizers and then the server told us the cooks had left without making our main dishes we ordered at the same time. This time the beer was warm, not chilled but warm. I went to the bar because the bartender was our server and asked for a Mai Tai. That never came until I walked back to the bar 15 minutes later. The Beef Curry...$48.00 was 3/4 meat 1/4 fat and not very tasty.

I went there for dim sum on a Sunday afternoon. The restaurant was lavish beautiful. The service and food were top tier. Oddly, the place was completely empty. I loved it and had a great time.
