I like it! 9/10/2008

I can never get my boyfriend to go with me; because its too far and little too expensive for him; which probably makes me crave it more that I normally would. But I like it! So do a lot of my friends do, too. I get the triple delight-chicken, beef and shrimp mix plate. Its hits the spot when you want better chinese food than some of the buffet or fast food Chinese restaurants out there. By the way-- I do like Chop Sticks and Fire Wok and Golden Wok, too; so that may or may not deter you from my preferences. Pros: Yummy Msg-free Chinese Food; interesting ambience Cons: My boyfriend thinks its overpriced-I can't go there all the time more

A MSG FREE RESTERAUNT 7/25/2008

A really great place to eat. I didnt feel slugish after eating here nor was I hungry 2 hours laters like at other chinese resteraunts. KUDOS on the MSG free! Pros: MSG FREE Cons: n/a more

Don't bother 2/6/2007

My pepper steak meal was more than $9.00 and it didn't taste great although it was edible. They don't let you substitute the white rice that comes with the meals for fried rice. You gotta pay an extra $1.50. The service is slow...we waited 20 minutes for our order to be take and the place wasn't even near crowded. They also wouldn't let us split the check among the 4 people in our party...they said they just don't do that. I had to pay extra for soup too...and omg, don't. Yuck. You might as well put corn in a blender and drink it. This place is way too overpriced and the staff is not helpful or friendly. My opinion: just go to Peng's China Town on Ingram. Pros: seated promptly, kinda looks kinda nice Cons: food isnt good, overpriced, unfriendly staff more

If you love sushi, be sure of your wants... 1/15/2007

...because the waitress had no clue what anything on the menu was. She had no clue what the difference between sushi and sashimi was. If you wanted to have rice with your fish, she would've told you to get the opposite, which is basically fish-bait. My mother and I are almost sushi virgins; we were only introduced to it a year and a half ago...our type requires a bit of guidance. They wouldn't let my mother exchange her order, even though their employee is the one who screwed up. I then ordered Sesame Chicken so that I could share my sushi with her. The Sesame Chicken, I'll admit, was delicious, but the lack of service was a pain (we asked to have our tea refilled twice before someone finally accomplished the mild task about 15 minutes later, and the 'to-go' box took another 10 minutes). To make up for the plate we couldn't exchange, we didn't leave the horrid woman a tip. Jeez Louise, I miss Sushi Chi. Pros: Their hot chinese dishes are yummy... Cons: The service is horrible... more

Fabulous experience 12/30/2006

The best overall experience of the many sushi restaurants I visited. My father doesn't eat sushi, and he was able to order an excellent pu pu platter, since they also had a full asian menu. Granted, usually sushi served at a restaurant with a full menu of chinese and/or other cuisines spells trouble. But at Formosa, not only do they pull it off, but they do so with incredible taste. Pros: Perfect sushi, great menu selection more

This is real sushi and sashimi!!!! 12/4/2005

I'm at a total disbelief that this restaurant was not rated #1 or at the top of the list for sushi!!!! The best sushi chefs are here!!!! The tastiest and freshest fish delivered every Wednsday. Lemme tell ya the other sushi bars don't even compare or come close to these guys and I've been to the rest!!!! Service here is impeccable!!!!!! more

Tasty 10/30/2003

Have dined here a couple of times and really enjoyed the food. Not your typical chineese food in the strip center type of establishment. A nice setting for some really good food. Service has always been good, and we have enjoyed coming here numerous times. If only it were closer to the house.... more
