Fai R.

Came here on a business dinner. The dirty martini I had before dinner was delicious, but all of their signature cocktails looked very good, too. The place was a little loud but the food made up for it. We all ended up getting the tasting menu which you share around family style. The steak was amazing and the aged beef was out of this world. I’d say the star of the show was the dumplings in the first course that I ate so quickly I didn’t get a picture of. The curried cauliflower was fantastic. Each one of the desserts was incredible.

First time here and absolutely loved it. Loved the atmosphere and the food. We had the crab fried rice, edamame dumplings, Chilean Sea bass, and soft shell crab. All of it was amazing. Highly recommend

Had a wonderful dinner here a couple weeks ago for restaurant week. It was around $40 for a 3 course meal and the portions were ample. The atmosphere is amazing as is their service. I would come again outside of restaurant week. They have valet available and there is a parking structure at the adjacent street.
