I have been going to this restaurant for years, the one in Rockville and Gaithersburg, Maryland. I understand the prices going up but the platters have gotten smaller and I would go to get the oxtails. Now the oxtails are half cooked, tough and all bones.. WHY???? What happened??? Our money is still being spent... Not happy, and the store in Rockville, the customer service is somewhat rude and I am very disappointed.. $20.00 for bones and undercooked meat? WOW!!!! Just lost a long time customer
