Have dined here many times. Food is always great. Have had the mussels before, great flavored sauce but the quality of the mussels themselves seemed off. Many shells empty and a good portion of them had a mushy texture. We love it here so we will be back. The dining room was very noisy, so it was difficult to have conversation without missing things said.

Great food . Scallops with accompaniments was fabulous.,Peking duck pretty good too. service very good and attentive but place is waaay too noisy for me ( older couple) Definitely hard to talk and there was just 2 of us. Overall I’d definitely go back . The only reason overall was a 4 was because of noise level.
