    The server was not attentive. We had to waive other servers down for help. 2:15 pm on a Saturday is not that busy and we were seated right away. However, when I asked for pork the second time, she gave me an excuse saying, “I don’t wanna overcrowd the table.” We had to pick up the empty plates for her so she can make room. When we were looking for her because the flame didn’t go down even when we turned down the burner, she wasn’t to be found and after the meat charred, she replied, “oh, that’s beef belly and they do that.” It was my son’s birthday dinner and the experience was disappointing.
