The waitress/owner is the worst I have ever experienced.  Sure, her English is bad, but her attitude is worse.\nI went in with allergies/a cold after 3pm. yesterday evening, hoping to get a soup to comfort me.  She tossed the menus on the table remarking that she was doing me a favor by placing the lunch menu on the table, even when lunch was technically over.\nShe went away and chatted in Chinese with the nearby table.  \nShe came back to my table and I wasn't ready.  It took her 10 minutes to return.  She turned up her nose at me, and began chatting (loudly) with the sushi chef.  My body language showed I was ready, but she came over when she was good and ready.\n\nI said that I wanted soup, and asked her for her recommendation, since I was feeling under the weather.  I guess she was disappointed in my order.  She refused to apply herself to the question, giving short, sharp answers, avoiding eye contact, and then stating, \"Everyone is different,\" so a recommendation was not possible.  She left again for an extended period of time.  I had time to look around at the dirty carpet.  She brought no tea or water.\n\nI asked about the spring rolls; were they fried?  She tried to educate me on Chinese cuisine versus Thai with such attitude.  \"Excuse me?\" I thought to myself, \"Does Orient equate with Chinese?\"\n\nI asked if she had ginger tea.  She said there was only one tea in a yelling tone, and I had better be okay with that!\n\nFinally I ordered the Miso soup.  It came in a very small bowl and was not hot enough.  I asked for the tea twice, since it appeared she did not hear me.  She barked at me with the equivalent, \"Alright already.\"  She plopped it on the table.  Later, when I was finished with my soup, she put her fingers all over the tea nossle.  That was effective in making me leave promptly.  Again, my body language communicated, \"Check please!\" but she chatted with the sushi chef, never letting him get a word in edgewise.\n\nI waited another agonizing 5 minutes for the check and left a 1cent tip.  I mumbled \"Never again!\" as I left, determined to never frequent this establishment, and to discourage all of my friends and family to steer clear.  As I drove around the back, the kitchen staff stared at me in an unwelcoming manner.\n\nI had never had such an experience at a restaurant in my life before.
