This was our first time and MC knocked it out of the park. Our group started with the pot stickers which were very good. The Birdnest did not disappoint and neither did the Saigon Noodles. We also got a couple pieces of sashimi which were fresh and flavorful. We can't wait to get back.

What a lovely experience! The restaurant is in an historic home with beautiful high ceilings and just a perfect ambiance. The staff was so professional and attentive. Food was absolutely delicious. Every. Single. Thing. was perfect. We got the sake salmon, hidden dragon maki, spring rolls, Chinese buns and Saigon noodle. Perfection.

My first visit here was about a week ago. Liked it so much. Booked again for Father’s Day. The restaurant itself is such a great atmosphere. Drinks were fantastic!!! Get that smoked old fashioned. You know you want too….Started with the Tuna special along with Chinese Buns. Great. Then went with the 3 sushi maki rolls to split with my daughter. Phenomenal!!! Finished with that Raspberry Lava Cake. That is the close you are looking for. Please go, tell them I sent you. Will not get you anything but made me feel important. Can’t wait to go back.

It was to Spencer for the quality of the food. The salmon was not fresh. Very disappointing because it was highly recommended.

The food was good and well presented. Service was quick and readily available. The only reason I rated the food as 4 is that I do not like many Asian dishes so it is not a fare assessment. My family thoroughly enjoyed. It was a bit pricey- all entrees $40+

Love the location. I thought eating out in the garden would mean mosquitos in this hot, humid summer, but there were none! We had a lovely dinner. The waiter’s recommendations were great. He mentioned that they change their menu frequently, so it’s definitely a restaurant you’ll want to visit again. Would love it if they expanded their Tempranillo/Rioja wine list ;)

MC has been on my list for a while. Finally went and oh boy, it was so worth the wait. Quite possibly the best meal I have had in quite sometime and I travel which means I eat out a lot. Started with Beef gyoza dish and a tuna sushi(nigiri and sashimi) for appetizers. Both Delicious. My wife got Chicken Pad Thai and I got the mixed grill(lamb, strip steak, and chicken sausage). WOW, just wow. My meal could not have been cooked more perfectly. We closed with LAVA molten cake with 2 spoons. Loved this place so much that we booked another reservation in 1 week. Can’t wait….
