The service and food were.both excellent. I'm glad we went.. This was my first time there. The outside area did not have any curb appeal and I wish we ate downstairs where the atmosphere was more lively.

Good food but since everything has become expensive, this has risen in price too. The dimsum ji xiaolongbao were delicious as were the crispy tofu with sweet chilli sauce.
