CHEATED.Stay far away from this place unless you want to be scammed.I was an original customer of Yen Ching restaurant years ago then moved away. I returned to town 3 weeks ago and placed a large order over $100 for take-out at the restaurant. First off, the area where the restaurant is located is no longer safe. Scary. At first sight, I thought the restaurant was closed down. The entrance looks like its been through a fire. You can barely make out “Yen Ching” through the blackened soot.After arriving home with my order, we thought the food was “okay” but noticeably different was their signature sizzling rice soup. According to their menu description: soup with shrimp, water chestnuts, mushrooms and sizzling rice. I remembered I used to love it so I ordered the XXL size($20). It was truly so disappointing… only broth, sizzling rice, a scant amount of frozen carrots, peas and a topper of floating spinach leaves. No shrimp, mushrooms or water chestnuts!Fast forward to my next visit to Yen Ching… in the following week. I decide to give them another chance thinking it must’ve been an honest mistake where they missed putting in the main ingredients. This time I order another XXL size of sizzling rice soup and I make mention of the missing ingredients on my previous order. The lady assures me it’s “all in there”. I drive home and guess what … it’s worse…again No shrimp. No water chestnuts. No mushrooms. I’m furious now. Now I feel cheated. I’m throwing a dinner party with the sizzling rice soup as the first course and now it looks like I’m serving hot water with a pea in it.I quickly called the restaurant and explained what happened. I told them I was upset and embarrassed about what they had given me to serve my guests. I let them know it’s happened to me twice in the last 2 weeks and it’s unacceptable. I asked them for either a refund or even a credit. “Alex” put me on hold for several minutes while he spoke to someone who had authority then promptly dropped my call. I called back and he said “there wasn’t any shrimp supposed to be in there and they don’t take special requests ????I explained to “Alex” how all the ingredients were listed on the giant billboard sign menu they have out when you first walk in and that the shrimp, along with all the other missing ingredients were clearly listed in the description and were definitely supposed to be in that soup- that’s why I ordered it! Basically, we went round and round for over 15 minutes with him giving me a bunch of excuses and placing me on more holds finally saying he had the authority to issue a credit or refund but wasn’t going to because in his words, “there was nothing inherently wrong with the soup”. What a joke! Then don’t have a misleading menu sign or they need to black out the ingredients that won’t be in the soup so a person knows what they are getting. False advertising. The 15 min. phone call on top of my experience was a waste of my time! It was surreal. I felt as if I had went to Macdonald’s ordered a cheeseburger and only got the buns, ketchup and mustard. Who wouldn’t feel cheated and upset!Ultimately, I’m shocked the restaurant has such poor customer service skills and wouldn’t even correct their $20 mistake by issuing a credit or correction. At the very least give an apology in order to try and retain a customer. I would’ve spent hundreds of dollars there in future visits had they done that. Instead, I’m writing a bad review. Poor business acumen.I feel as though I’m not the only one this has happened to at Yen Ching.Bottom line:I will NEVER set foot in your Yen Ching restaurant again to be embarrassed by or taken advantage of and I’ll tell everyone I know how poorly I was treated as a customer. Terrible-
