    Like I said, I've only been there once, and been to PF Changs many times... but neither the food nor the decor comes even close.

    Yao's restaurant is not very good for the price you pay. I was not impressed with the culinary skills or the presentation. The decor and ambiance are ok. This was like 4 years ago.

    adding to that, Dan Marino's restaurant really sucked balls and Michael Jordans steak house didn't look special either.

    I've always wondered if this commercial was shot at Yao's place. Never been there.

    Yao's: nothing to write home about.

    but I had a GREAT time at Ken Stabler's place in the early 80s!!!!!!!! (what was it, the Diamond Back or something) He knew more about Houston's politics than I ever thought he would....
