With a groupon in hand, was ready to give it a try. So were about 100 other people!
The groupon sale overwhelmed the place, so service was spotty, food took forever and the constant apologies were too much. So after reading the various reviews on yelp, everyone seemed to rave about the chili garlic chicken.
Alas, it was nothing short of disappointing:

Chicken overbattered and deep fried mixed with chopped garlic and chili's.. It was sort of mixed together as no real strong flavors emerged from the chicken. Not sure what folks were raving about, but this dish is your classic 3a dining option plate after a night of partying.
The garlic eggplant was a great improvement, though it had the overly oiled syndrome as well:

With a little chicken, it would have been alright. The hoisin sauce was a tad salty, but the composition of vegetables was great.
The Singaporean noodles were another big disappointment:

A vivid noodle dish like this should taste like something! It didn't.. Bland to the point it should have been sent back.
If it weren't for the groupon, and the curiosity to try new places in the hood, would not have stepped and in, and don't plan on coming back. It's definitely categorized in the 3a Chinese food place bucket... After a night if dancing, you won't have the energy to realize how bad it really is.
The sushi wasn't sampled. If it comes out at you from behind close doors where you can't see the sushi chef, not worth the risk.
