Our party shared a number of dishes and we all enjoyed every bite. We had two first timers in our group who absolutely loved it. We had a very friendly, attentive waitperson. Can't wait to go back!

Every dish was really good and flavorful. The staff was really nice and accommodating. The vibe and music selection were upbeat and fun. I can't imagine not going here every time I come to Austin.

The food was really good but not exploding with flavors like I heard. It was overall fabulous Chinese food but I still like Lin Asian and Wu Chow in Austin better. The portions were pretty small for $18 plates. Our waiter was great and food came out really quick for a Sunday afternoon.

Delicious! Very loud on a busy Saturday night - so if loud is not your thing, don’t head there on a busy weekend - but great food and excellent service… will be back!
