Mr. Chow's is culinary delight. I eat out at white tablecloth restaurants 3 or 4 times a week. When I have a reservation at Mr. Chow's I am always more excited because the food is simply so tasty. Also, I love the sophisticated dark decor and the vibrant atmosphere that makes one feel they are in a special restaurant. The service is superb led by seasoned managers Sonja and Angi.

I eat out 3-4 times per week at what I consider prime restaurants. However, unlike other restaurants when I have a reservation at Mr. Chow's my salivary glands kick into action well before I arrive because my brain recalls how "tasty" the food is. I love the vibe, the decor, the food and the management team led by Sonja and assisted by Angi. Great food in a fun filled, sophisticated setting.
