    Attentive and friendly service. Often came around asking if we wanted more dishes. Harp in the background was nice. The kind of music that is relaxing - you can listen to it without really paying a lot of attention to it. The hot chai/apple spice tea upon entering was nice. Overall food was good. Rice was a little crunchy, but everything else was very good. The wooden chairs are not the least bit comfortable though. I had a bench seat this time, and they are much better. The homemade wooden chairs look great, but not supporting, rickety and hurt the back. Place was busy, but could still hold a conversation easily.

    El ambiente, la comida, el Servicio y Atencion. Excelente! Todo muy bien, hasta que vimos un par de ratoncitos abajo de las mesas, afortunadamente ya habíamos terminado de comer, pero fue muy desagradable, otra pareja, también los vieron y mejor se retiraron del restaurant, la Gerente Estaba sumamente apenada, comentó que algunas veces se meten los ratoncitos por la calle, pero que la cocina estaba impecable, espero que tengan más cuidado con el control de pestes porque el lugar es muy bueno, la comida deliciosa y la gente muy amable! Nota* no nos ofrecieron ningún descuento adicional, o algún cupón por el evento tan desagradable.

    Flavorful Journey at East is East . A Feast for the Senses Dining at East is East was like taking a culinary journey across the Silk Road, rich, diverse, and absolutely unforgettable. I opted for their tasting menu, which is an all you can eat style offering that lets you explore a wide range of dishes. East is East offers an unforgettable culinary journey through the flavors of the East. We tried the all you can eat tasting menu, and every dish was full of rich, authentic flavors. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with beautiful decor and live music that adds to the overall experience. Service was attentive and friendly, and we were encouraged to try as many dishes as we liked without ever feeling rushed. Great value, delicious food, and a truly unique vibe. Highly recommend!

    Food and services was fantastic. Pricing is a little high, but it technically is "all you can eat" if you get their Silk Route tasting menu ($47 for dinner). There is a 4$ per person fee for the musicians they have - while I am fine with this, we were seated well away and around a corner so could barely hear them... Seemed a little unfair to charge us in this case.
