margaret kuo's - wayne

awesome restaurant.. food was good. i was there on a business trip and did want to drive, wanted to go some place close by and this place was there right next to m motel. soup was exquisite, food was hot. the owner came by chatted for a while. such a humble person. love to go there next i am there.

for mother's day this year, we somehow ended up at margaret kuo's akari room in wayne. my aunt picked it. but then she didn't end up going. but we had to go anyway. that's ok, the old lady would have picked sushi anyway. this is on the second floor of the chinese part of margaret kuo's. it's swanky. there's a large sushi bar and plenty of tables and traditional style booths. the miso soup - quite respectable. mom didn't complain about it being too salty or anything. it was just right. since i always like to try the agedashi tofu, i tried it here too. and it was good! it was nice and hot and the sauce was spot on. mom's sushi dinner, which is usually her go-to at any sushi joint. everything was good and fresh. as for me, i went with a grilled chilean sea bass in an orange miso sauce. this was a great big honkin piece of fish! and it tasted great too. the sauce was just a tiny bit on the orangey side, just en

all of the locations. have one problem. very spotty service...food is usually good, but the service lacks at all locations.

nice dinner party all the way around

terrible service. i could not believe the waitress actually screamed at me for ordering low sodium soy sauce!!!! the worst service ever. i am not coming back to this place. when i go out i want to have a good time and enjoy dinner. last thing i need is to be screamed at by a thoughtless waitress.if you are looking for good chinese and japanese food in the area, you better go to azie or yang ming. the food and service are so much better. the ambience is also ore upscale.

third time's the charm. the food was good- i had hot and sour soup and szechuan filet of fish (flounder) with mandarin noodles (noodles were delicious!!). everyone in the restaurant was very friendly and the ambience was nice. the only negative thing was our dishes came out at different times (about five min. between the 2 dishes) and they first brought out a plate of chilean sea bass to which i said "nope, not right" then they brought out a plate of eggplant (also delicious and which was our side dish not my entree) so i said "nope, not right", and then on the third time, they brought out my entree. it was very entertaining, but not necessarily in a good way!

chinese on the 1st floor and japanese on the 2nd floor. great place to eat!

very very disappointing. a year or two ago we went to margaret kuo's in media, pa and the food and service was wonderful. the wayne location wasn't anything like it. the service was horrible and it is not the place to go if you have any sort of food allergy. i spent way too long arguing with the waiter that a little msg was not acceptable for someone with celiac and despite his insistence that low sodium soy sauce was healthy it still is a wheat based product. it wasn't just me though, my mother and sister who have no food restrictions said that their food was overcooked and not memorable at all.

my original title for this posting was "selosse and szechuan." it may sound like a tantalizing if odd fantasy match-up. it very nearly came true during a recent visit to margaret kuo's dragon's lair in wayne. jacques selosse blanc de blancs was listed on
