This place claims to be a chinese food restaurant, but there is absolute nothing chinese about it. Nothing. Even down to the staff. I have yet to see an Asian staff person. And they have this special sauce that the waiter mixes for you after you order which does not exist in authentic chinese food places!
The waiters are pretty nice. But the food doesn't taste very good. It's a bad take on chinese dishes. And it's kind of pricey. Plan on spending about $20 per person minimum. I personally would not go here for chinese food. It has a nice atmosphere, but it simply is not serving chinese food of any sort.

This is a sit down Italian place that serves pasta and pizza. I don't think the pizzas are very special. They taste okay, but not great. Nothing on this menu really stands out in either concept or taste. It's all very regular. The price is decent. The place on Regents never seems to be full. so you can probably go there with a group and find a table. The waiters could use some work. They have a tendency to mess up orders a lot. Not very special and would probably not go unless I had to.

These dessert looks very cool. It's ice cream in tiny little balls or dots. They come in different colors and there are different flavors. While it looks so cute, it doesn't taste that great. It doesn't taste bad, I mean it's ice cream. It tastes like ice cream. But I think I like to taste ice cream in bigger mouthfuls than in tiny, tiny drops. It's not as satisfying to eat little drops of ice cream. Neat concept though.

I'm from the bay area so I have been to a couple of other todais. While this place is okay, it is not as good as some of the others I've been to. That being said, if I had never been to another, I probably would think this place is pretty good. It's a sushi seafood buffet. There are a lot of sushi rolls, some cooked dishes, an udon station and dessert. The desserts are cute but I don't think they taste that great as compared to some of the other chains. There is a lot of variety though and if you want to get your money's worth and are interested in japanese food this might be a good place to go.

The food here is very americanized. the menu is pretty limited and there is really no authentic dishes. There is a huge bar inside the restaurant that no one seems to use, and it is an odd fixture if you want to find some semblance of chinese authenticity (I have yet to be in a chinese restaurant that has a bar). The food wasn't very cheap either. A group of us ordered family style and paid about $20 per person. All the dishes tasted exactly the same, we could not tell them apart. The service was good though. The manager was very nice and came out several times, but I probably will not ever go back again.

The food is fresh but overpriced. Each piece of sushi you are eating is probably more than a dollar, and it's not so good that it is worth that dollar. There's not mucb vareity and nothing that makes this place stand out. You have your normal rolls, the only difference is that this place is expensive. I don't think the quality lives up to the price.

This place is very similar to an El Torito, or restaurants similar to that.
There is nothing special about this place that distinguishes it. But it does have good food. salsa at beginning is nice and spicy.
I think this place is a little bit pricier than El Torito's, which is my only real complaint.
Nothing really stands out, so not much to comment. FOod is good. Service is okay.

If you love meat, this is the place for you. all you can eat meat.
This is a brazilian steakhouse. Basically when you sit down, you can go to their salad bar, which is one of the most beautiful salad bars I have ever seen.
They have array of tropical fruits like mangos. They have a lot of pretty salads and have white asparagus too which is pretty rare.
They also have some soups and some rice dishes.
Then there is the main course. you have this little stopper at your table, which is turned green when you are ready for the servers to come. And when you turn it to face red, that means you are done.
As soon as you are ready, servers will come out from the kitchen with skewers of different types of meat. They go from table to table asking if you want a piece of it, and if you do, they will cut you a piece. The different types of meat vary between lunch and dinner. I think lunch has about 8 variety cuts of meat. And for dinner I think there is 11 or 12.
There are different cuts of steak, chicken, sausage, ham, etc.
It's an amazing experience. But it's a lot of meat. the servers are great too. If they see you are waiting for someting in particular, the next time they get that cut of meat, they'll go to you first.

This place has great Mexican food, a nice live band and the biggest margaritas I've ever seen.
Unfortunately the margaritas have almost no alcohol in them. But they are big. the biggest size is the size of a fish bowl.
This place is always packed and I don't think they take reseverations. The wait ends up being very long. And if you have a large party you will probably end up sitting outside.
I like the food and atmosphere though. It's a nice place to go with some friends.

I've only been here once, but I did not enjoy my experience. I ordered food to go and called it in. first of all, when I got there, i couldn't even figure out where the take out pick up line was.
Also, they completely messed up my order and I had to wait while they corrected it.
The clam chowder I found to be very watery and not very good at all.
The rest of my food was decent, but I think it was overpriced.
This place tends to be busy, probably because it is on the harbor.
