Five-Spice Hoisin Chicken
Very flavorful. Peppers were very good and chicken was juicy.

Five-Spice Hoisin Chicken
The taste was great but it did have a spicy finish. Not hot enough to burn, but a perfect amount for flavor. It could have had a little more chicken, but that is a recurring problem.

Buttery Lobster Risotto
great portion of lobster but risotto was like overly lemony and garlicky paste. Tried so many times last year too and kept getting worse. Wish it was just a lobster roll

Beef & Black Bean Chili
This is a super meal! Corn bread is light, fluffy, moist and sweet and chili was surprisingly good! It also has a nice even taste and texture with a little sweetness. Loved it and already ordering again!

Buttery Lobster Risotto
It actually had TOO much lobster - and I didn't love the huge pieces. I expected it to be pieces mixed in. The lobster was also a bit rubbery
