When it first opened it was great! We ate there the day it opened. WE LOVED IT! I recommended it to everyone I'd meet. Whenever a family from out of town would visit we would take them there. We celebrated many special occassions there. But it has changed hands so often and has had so many different chefs that the menu is not even close to what it once was. They had a menu item called, "Popcorn Beef" and it was AWESOME! After a while that chef moved on and the next chef had no clue about the dish. Very disappointing.
**The last time we came in there was a problem. There was a dead fly in the dipping sauce and when I pointed that out to the waitress she took it away and that was it. No new sauce, no apology. Now if I was the manager I would have definitely torn up the check and profusely apologized. But nothing. Zero. Zip. Nada. Haven't been there since. But it may have changed hands again so who knows, this was over a year ago.
The prices have gone up and the quantity and quality has gone down. My wife does love the Dim Sum, but our last visit left such a bad taste we haven't been back.

Yeah, a part of me wants to say "Chinese cuisine" because we run into Chinese food alot these days, no? Well, not only do they serve Chinese dishes, they serve all kinds of dishes here, and the hot tea you get before meals is quite good.
There is a variety of ways to order food. You can... order side dishes and a soda (free refills). You can order an entree with some appetizers. You can order a duck dish, either half plate or full plate. A small menu somewhat, but with much value to what you pay for.
In honesty, not all the dishes are absolutely good; but mostly, the menu is a good one. They serves hot curries here, so take extra caution of them. Curries are absolutely known to be very, very hot. Very, very hot...
The service is fast AND friendly, neither attribute is missing. Televisions are present, and the atmosphere... AWESOME! Artwork is laid upon every nook n' cranny, and there is even a waterfall to enjoy sight of.
Best of all, the location of this restaurant is perfect. It is near all sorts of stores; and more specifically, White Lane. White Lane is a home to all kinds of stores, you name it. Need video games? White Lane. Need groceries? White Lane? Need to take a le... okay, you get my point. It basically has stuff to stare at for some minutes.
All in all, this is a fine example of a good restaurant, and it is a dining option worth considering.

We eat here quite often. The sizzling seafood rice soup is delicious! A large order is enough to feed the whole family. We usually order an additional entree to share with the kids since they don't appreciate the veggies in their soup. We typically spend $30-$40 for a family of four. Service is always fast and friendly and there's never a wait for a table. The feel of the place is quiet and cozy...not exactly kid friendly but the staff is always patient and interactive with kids.

Based on previous reviews on Inside Guide, I thought I'd see what Grandview Asian Cuisine had to offer. Verdict: the food was good and the service was lightening fast (a little too fast for my girlfriend's taste).
The food is good, even unique. Warning: when they say something is hot, hot is what they mean; their food is not dumbed-down for a Western pallet. My friend, James, is used to Mexican food, but his schezuan shrimp was on fire (I thought it was fantastic)!
The service team should get an Olympic team gold medal for fastest service ever! Within 3 minutes of being there, three different wait-staff asked for our drink order. Once I had my drink, my empty soda glass no more than hit the edge of the table and someone was there to grab it to go get more soda!
The atmosphere is . . . interesting; the place has a ghetto jungle feel complete with a nice little waterfall.
Final thought: if you're tired of the same old thing, give this place a try.

Thanks and we hope to see you soon
