This is such a great new restaurant! The food was excellent, service was top notch, the ambiance and decor were well designed, and the location is improving. Parking was not easy but with the construction in the area, I’m sure it will improve.

Always delicious! Perfect menu for sharing with the whole table and trying so many different flavors. Contrary to what the waitress may tell you, no need to order 2-3 dishes per person. We had 3 people and ordered 1 item from each section and had way too much food! But worth it and nice to have leftovers. Love the ambience and vibe of the Sloans’ location.

We spent our 29th anniversary here and had an AMAZING meal. We hadn't been before and Skylar did a wonderful job going over everything, including his "not to miss" dishes and EVERYTHING was perfect. Both the pork and Kobe beef dumplings were among the best we have ever had and our meals were just as delicious. We had a few of the cocktails and they were also wonderful! It's always a risk spending a special evening at a restaurant you've never been to before, but I am so glad we took the chance because it was the perfect start to our anniversary evening and we will be back!
