I had lunch today with my friends Mary, Linda , and Susan at the new Eastern Pearl Chinese Restaurant on Maple Road in Williamsville. It is located on the site of the former Chang's Garden restaurant, which was destroyed by fire over a year ago. Since Chang's was one of our favorites, we were glad to see another high-quality Chinese eatery open there.
The decor is very elegant, yet don't feel that you have to get all dressed up. The food was very good. The menu consists of Cantonese dishes. I had the sesame chicken, while Mary opted for Moo Goo Gai pan. Linda tried the shrimp lo mein and Susan the garlic shrimp. Prices on the lunch menu were reasonable about $6-7. The dinner menu seemed just a bit pricey, but then this is not a tiny take-out joint; you are paying for the ambiance.
There is a review of the restaurant in the Gusto section of today's Buffalo News.
