FAME seems to be having an identity crisis. It doesn't know what it wants to be. There are several counters that serve different types of food, but they call themselves an Asian place. I got a burrito. Don't get me wrong, the food was good; it was prepared right in front of me and it tasted very fresh. My girlfriend ordered dumplings and was made to wait long enough that I finished my burrito completely before she got her 6 dumplings. They did not give her dumpling sauce, instead they gave her a cup to put soy sauce in. Soy sauce does not go with dumplings.\n\nWhen I went to place my order, a worker approached me and asked if I wanted to order from the Mexican counter. I said yes and she asked which type of meat I wanted. I said shredded beef. She then simply turned and told the woman behind the counter what I could have easily told her. It was all very odd. There was no real 'counter' for the server outside of the kitchen to stand at, she was just awkwardly standing next to me.\n\nI asked for shredded beef and I'm pretty sure I got pulled pork. It still tasted very good, but the place made me kind of uncomfortable with how oddly/poorly(?) it was run.\n\nFAME stands for \"Food, Art, Music, Entertainment.\" It wants to be a food court, a single restaurant, and a club all at once. Oh yeah I forgot to mention, there was a DJ in the corner trying to get people to dance in the middle of what was essentially a food court. Very odd. Maybe I'd try this place again in the afternoon when they hopefully aren't trying so hard.
