Can 2 people share an entree at the restaurant?
I enjoyed the dishes, the dishes are plentiful. 2 people can certainly share an entree. They should use less rice in the dishes, granted there was a good portion of meat, but the amount or rice overwhelmed the plate. Overall, I enjoyed the food, ambience and the service.
