I never write bad reviews; but this was a bad experience. I ordered some mango-salmon dish (it s been a while, can t remember the name) with rice pilaf and asparagus- I make dishes like these and others so I knew I d like it, wrong.. so utterly wrong. The rice was just that, rice onions, a pinch of pepper and way to much salt. I ve made better! Pilaf is supposed to have broth or stock in it, none to be found. The asparagus was way too tough- the knife wouldn t even cut through it! And to top it off the salmon was cold. Like you let it sit out for 20+ minutes. Why would I be that specific? Because salmon takes 15 to 20 minutes to cook, rice takes 20 once you ve boiled the water and for done asparagus it takes about 6 minutes if you re steaming it. We waited over 40 minutes for our food! Nearly an hour! And of course it s cold! It sat out for too long.
But, I didn t complain to the staff, they were busy and the waitress only came by three times, to sit us, waited forever for her to come back and take our orders, and only came back to collect the bill. Rather than complain to the waitress, because she s not the chef, we just left without saying anything.

Sorry for the rant, but I re-created that dish with much more flavor, better presentation, and piping hot- I wouldn t pay 27$ for that ever again
