“Great & Cheap Chinese Restaurant ”

Don't let the shopping center fool you, Grandma's isn't a standard mall food at all. Great service, good atmosphere and fantastic Chinese food for few bucks. Free hot tea is available for people waiting and during the all meal. We order 4/5 different dishes and we spend only 20$ for both of us. Great dinner

The restaurant is on the sixth floor of the mall above the Apple Store. Similar to the Cheesecake Factory, for those who know it, you get a number and wait for a table. The wait is obviously determined by how many people came before you. 

They have one English menu, it has pictures, everything else is in Mandarin. There are not many English speaking staff, however you are in China so that shouldn't bother you.The food was very good and quite reasonably priced. Time your visit and you can minimize the wait.
