    Foods decent but over priced and some portions are small. Do not get the lobster fried rice… zero flavor (sent it back due to lobster being undercooked) Fried chicken, short rib and salt and pepper shrimp were good. Lamb wontons were ehhh. Don’t get the chocolate cake - nothing special.

    Hello Jeanine. Thank you for coming in. We are sorry about the lobster being undercooked. We are Grateful for your visit.

    One of the best kept secrets around although not much of a secret anymore! Chef Hales does an amazing job and this quaint spot offers a tremendous diverse menu with an exceptionally friendly and attentive staff. Chef personally greets each table during your meal and shows gratitude and appreciation which has certainly become a lost art in todays world. Love this spot. Consistently awesome each and every time.
