    We had a very disappointing take-out experience tonight at our local SOHO. Our lo mein noodles were so soft and mushy that we hardly had to chew them. The wantons in the wanton soup were similarly so overcooked that they were falling apart in the broth. The taste of the food, especially the shrimp, was okay but not delicious. Bummer 🫤.

    To begin, the restaurant itself is absolutely gorgeous inside. Very modern and bright with beautiful artwork and lighting. I was impressed walking through the door. I was there with friends on a Wednesday night, so not the busiest night usually, but there weren't many other seated tables. The waitstaff was pleasant enough, but not overly warm. One of my friends found something in her hot tea and he seemed reluctant to provide a new one. She dealt with the replacement which had loose ground leaves at the bottom. The food was good and portion sizes were large. My favorite of the 3 items I ordered was the wonton soup. It had an excellent broth and the wontons were soft and delicious. For an appetizer, I chose the Rock Shrimp. These were good, not the best I have had, but good. Oddly, they were served over a bed of French fries, which I haven't seen anywhere else. I didn't try them. Finally, I love a good General Tso Chicken over steamed rice. Theirs was all white meat - my preference - which can be hard not to overcook. The flavor was excellent, but the chicken was a little tougher due to overlooking. I am the only non-sushi eater out of my group, but they reported that the rolls they ordered were good. Overall a pleasant place to spend an hour enjoying a meal, but not someplace I would go out of my way for either.

    Beware when ordering soup to go because this restaurant will NOT include crunchy wonton strips unless you ask for them. I guess you need to ask for a glass of water too....

    Quite a few issues with this place which is sad because I wanted to enjoy it. I would suggest passing this place by. For the price, it is not worth it. We had group of five people so we were able to sample and try a wide variety of different meals and flavors that this location offered. Our first and most major issue was the service which was provided by a younger woman. She consistently disappeared, would not come check on us, and at one point we asked for some boxes with some desert menus and she said okay and then went on break! We had to eventually pull another worker to ask them for help and the waiter we had came back out and started laughing and just making jokes. The staff also kept dropping their to-go boxes and counter items onto the floor and just put them back for use! The staff also had trouble understanding us, and when we went to order an item just straight up told us "we don't have that", so we had to point at it and then they said, "Oh yeah we have that". Very unprofessional to not know the menu or just tell a customer no without first asking to see what they are asking about. The food was just okay. The flavors were not there and everything was overall pretty bland. The broth of the miso soup and the Ramen was good but the meaty flavors that you expect from the proteins were drowned out by an overly salted taste and the other entrees were bland and devoid of any pop. Our desert, after waiting a long time to order and receive, was slightly frozen with freezer burn! This leads me to believe that many of the items in the restaurant are frozen and simply heated up instead of any actual cooking. Very disappointing. Atmosphere was fine, no problems there. Table settings and utensils were as expected. In conclusion, don't bother coming here. Go to another location, as there is nothing here of value that you will get that you cannot get better at a different restaurant of the same price. Two stars for at least having edible food, but below average on the scale of what you expect.
