    Food was excellent, service was pretty disappointing. Restaurant was half empty but they sat us next to the kitchen door for no reason when there were empty tables all around. Server took our order and then we never saw him again until we were done eating. Food was excellent but we would have ordered more rounds of drinks if we ever saw the server. $$ loss for the restaurant and annoying for us.

    The waiter wasn’t attentive and he took a very long time to come back to our table. It was 15-20 before we even had a refill for water.

    Amazing food and decor. We had the duck spring rolls, short rib, prawns and stick rice with tuna and bok choy. All excellent and we eat a lot of amazing Chinese food. Services was underwhelming and transactional. Not welcoming. No recommendations etc. It is expensive but worth it. Would go back and hope for a different waiter.

    Our entire dining experience was ruined by overly loud rap music playing the while we tried to dine. Used to love this restaurant, but we won’t be back.

    Ana amazing experience, the ambiance was beautiful and quaint. It wasn't busy. The food was delicious. My first espresso martini was better than I imagined, and the service was great.
