    Run! Don’t walk here. Make the reservation (it’s small venue) and go hungry. Take your foodie friends so you can order the entire menu and share and indulge. I was solo and could only manage three things - the Bao Bun, the garlic noodles, and the lemongrass bolognese. I may have been the awkward girl at the bar making noises after every bite, and honestly, I’m not ashamed. IYKYK. Also…aka for the in house chili sauce. It’s game changer. I am not local so I can’t just return tomorrow but I guarantee you I will be returning to Dallas with the only purpose of eating here.

    Both my date and myself sat stunned and staring at each other for a few minutes after we took the first bite of our entrees. THAT is how good the food was. Words can not do it justice. This is the best meal I've had in the last decade without a doubt. We had the Shaking Beef and the Kimchi Foie Gras Dumplings with a side of garlic noodles, and all three dishes exceeded any expectations we had. Reading a review here about how good the food is will still not prepare you for what you are about to experience. Just go. There is nothing else like it in Dallas.

    Exceptional service that I’d put on par with many Michelin-starred restaurants. The food is tasty and interesting. I appreciate the creativity. It feels every bit of a special occasion without pretentiousness. Highly recommended for foodies who enjoy an intimate setting and are at least moderately adventurous with their palate.

    WE had not been to MHB in a few years and was so happy that we found it in good hands still. The food was amazing and our server was top notch. Highly recommend.
