It was worse than miserable. For $6.50, I got the worst shaved ice ever. I feel so robbed.
The restaurant is very fancy looking with the main restaurant on the left and a bakery section with a small seating area on the right. Looking for a quick recharger, I went to the bakery for some shaved ice that they advertised on their window.
After the shaved ice disaster (details below), I have no intentions of coming back here. I just have no faith in their food. What restaurant in the right mind could possibly serve kidney and pinto beans in sugared milk and pass that off as shaved ice?! Not only that, it was expensive (for shaved ice)! I just hope they aren’t passing off other disasters as ‘fine asian food.’
I ordered a bowl of shaved ice with red beans, lychee, and sweet condensed milk. That’s a super standard shaved ice order.
After a fairly long wait, my bowl of shaved ice came with kidney beans, PINTO BEANS, and freshly peeled lychees swimming in a bowl of milk with sugar. No red beans. No sweet condensed milk. PINTO BEANS?! KIDNEY BEANS?! The lychees were the only things redeeming about the shaved ice as they were freshly peeled. It tasted awful. It was salty, beany, and melting in watery milk. I could totally understand if a restaurant was out of certain ingredients. I would expect them to let me know instead of using bad substitutions and charging me for them (if they even were substitutions). This mishap is as bad as a restaurant serving mashed stale bread to a customer who ordered mashed potatoes.

This restaurant is HORRIBLE. The service was crap and so was the food. The waitresses and waiters didn’t even know what was on the menu and the manager was very rude. One of our dishes even had rotten shrimp in it! Give me a break. Do yourself a favor, and STAY AWAY from this restaurant, don’t even CONSIDER. You’re in the Seattle area, there are tons of other dim-sum places.

This is a relatively new dim sum restaurant in downtown kirkland. I actually find it a bit too nice and fancy because I think the crowds and the noise are part of the dim sum experience. :) But that’s just me. If you like to have dim sum once in a while but you’re not into dining at noisy places this may just be the place for you.

This restaurant does look nice and elegant. However, our plan to enjoy a night here was ruined by extremely slow service; terrible food, which is cold or luke warm; and worst of all, the manager was very arrogant and rude, and treated us very impatiently! It is ok that the food is not that great, but I have NEVER seen a restaurant treated its customers in this HORRIBLE way! She even shouted at us, yelled histerically aross the hall, just because we first urged the food preparation, which is extremely low (more than 30 minutes after we ordered); and later we asked why the food was not hot enough……
We will NEVER go back to this place EVER!!!
