The food is terrible and the service is bad. I think I can get a better service in a fast food restaurant.
One of Louisville's best restaurants: This is the restaurant you should come to if you're in the mood for something with an oriental flavor but need more than typical Chinese buffet-style food to please your discerning palate. Semi-upscale atmosphere (and prices). I recommend coming at lunch for more affordable fare, though some of the best dishes are only on the dinner menu (you can still order them, but they cost dinner prices). A little copy and paste about the chef:
[Peng S.] Loois reputation for culinary excellence has gained national recognition. In 2003, he was a featured chef at the James Beard House and was the guest chef at the Cheeca Lodge Food and Wine Festival in the Florida Keys. He was also named a category winner in the 2001 Kikkoman "Take the Moolah and Hula" Teriyaki recipe contest. He was featured again at the James Beard House in 2005 "Taste of Malaysia" and 2006 "Taste of Louisville."
Well known for his commitment to community and charitable causes, Looi is a frequent guest chef for events sponsored by organizations such as Dare to Care, The Healing Place, the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, Kentucky Harvest and Home of the Innocents. He has also participated in the annual "Taste of the Nation" and the 2000 Chefs Collaborative.
My favorite restraunt: Let me say first I have never been a huge fan of Asian food, but after eating at this restraunt I love it now. I am always wanting to go there for lunch or dinner. Prices are good, food is better, enviorment is awesome. I give this place 2 thumbs up.
