“Mr Chow’s doesn’t have the clout that it once did but I’ll be damned if their ma mignon, Dungeness crabs and chicken satays aren’t delicious. The service is over the top; they bed over backwards to accommodate, the drinks come fast, the order is always perfect, the host gives us a huge hello and the waiters remember us.”

replying to u/Smooth_Influence_488: Phillipe Chow still has their downtown location open. If you're down to treat yourself, they have an interesting take.
