    Did not disappoint!! Restaurant is gorgeous, service was outstanding and food was beyond amazing! So refreshing to experience something so different. We had pork and shrimp dumplings, eggroll, duck appetizer, and noodle dish. It was fun to share everything. Cant wait to go back and try all different items. The service was absolutely amazing! Whoever is training this staff has done an excellent job. Not only was everyone attentive it looks like they enjoy their jobs!

    Wow!! What a great experience! The decor is artsy chic, setting a fun , vibrant tone as soon as you enter. The cocktails are on point. I recommend the Mai Tai, it's legit. The staff are, not surprisingly, on top of their game too. Whitney took incredibly good care of our table of derelicts!! But most importantly the food.... Out of this world!! We had the ribs, almost all the dumplings, crispy chicken and lamb and cumin noodles. They are all our favorites! Just go. You'll be glad you did!!
