Wisdom of the crowds = just plain dumb sometimes
Went to a restaurant, packed like sardines, with people waiting outside to get in. It took over half an hour to get seats inside and another 15 minutes to get get food after ordering. From what I can tell passing this restaurant all the time, that's typical.
Food was not good.
Presentation was poor.
Service was bad.
Ambiance was typical loud, shouting in your ear Chinese restaurant loud.
Order accuracy was bad, they kept trying to shove a horrible seafood fried fruit platter on us.
Parking was non-existent.
Why do people keep coming here in droves?!
Pictures to come.
What prompted me to start the post was that my family and I went to a restaurant in Alhambra, CA which we almost always pass because its on one of the busiest most used intersections there.
Every time we pass there's always people waiting outside to get in for dinner (usually on weekends). One weekend, we decided to visit.
The wait was 30 minutes, the food came out slowly, cold and out of order, and the service was bad.
It goes to show you can't always trust that a restaurant is good just because there's a lot of people waiting to get in.
