Kung Pow beef didn't taste good at all (usually it did depending on who's in the kitchen- which you can't see). Sent it back. Was told (by *****) that they gave us "Kung Pow lamb instead." Their mistake supposedly . But that was the third "mistake" they made in about two months. Same excuse when sent back the second & third time we visited. Food poisoning each time. Sucks because the place had pretty good food and was/is local. OUR mistake is that we ordered it "10 Star Spicy Hot." Thinking that we're "stupid" or "drunk" Americans they gave us beef that was slightly rotten or on the verge - like we would not know the difference since it was so spicy and we had a few beers. Even called the owner (who was at Disneyland with his family during the third time we got rotten disguised spicy food) and HE ADMITTED it! They serve semi-rotten or rotten meat when a customer orders it extra spicy. Have no idea why this place is still in business. Called the FDA and local government but they are useless (unless I had a "viable" sample of the rotten food at the time - which wasn't possible to submit). I guess your safe eating here if you don't order anything spicy - especially any meat-based dishes. Absolutely disgusting and sad. Took us dumbasses THREE times with food poisoning (questioning it the first two times) not to ever visit this so-called restaurant again. Especially when the owner admitted that they use "old" meat when making spicy dishes. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting
