Came for the bottomless drinks, left full as hell! I’ll start by saying this place is super small on the inside so large groups aren’t ideal. I have three stars because upon arriving, 3 different workers came up to us to ask if we were dining in and how many we had. We had 6 people and once they heard that, they made a face and walked off and never came back to give a wait time or ask if we wanted to sit outside. Finally, when the next person asked, I told them we’d be fine sitting outside although it just finished storming. Happy hour was about to end and that’s what we came for.
Now once we were sat, we were cooking with hot grease. The bottomless lemon drops kept coming and the food was really good. For food, we ordered option B so we got to order from the full menu. My favorite dish was the Singapore noodles. Our server Stacey was so funny and made sure our glasses weren’t empty long. I’ll be back for sure. Hopefully logistics are worked out.

This all-you-can-eat Chinese spot did not disappoint. The food was hot, fresh, and full of flavor—everything from the dumplings to the lo mein hit the spot. The bottomless lemon drops? Dangerous in the best way—sweet, smooth, and just strong enough to keep the good vibes flowing.
The ambience and atmosphere were perfect—chill lighting, good music, and a cozy, inviting feel. And the customer service was top-tier—everyone was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Definitely a fun spot to eat, drink, and enjoy for daytime or night. Already planning my next visit!

Servers are rude. The food is terrible. It’s a traumatizing experience.

I COULD NOT GET TO THE REVIEWS QUICK ENOUGH! First and foremost I just want to say that the Han Palace in Woodley Park is PHENOMENAL! Never a complaint or issue, be it in person, or delivery. It was natural for me to try the Han Palace in Capitol Hill being as though it’s closer. Each time I’ve ordered from THIS location, SOMETHING HAS BEEN WRONG!!! Be it the food was tasteless, cold, or wrong in general.
I ordered my usual Yang Chow Fried Rice - no bean sprout add extra egg, 20 packs of duck sauce. The fact that they didn’t do ANYTHING I requested is just absurd. I have never experienced such lack of empathy and incompetence from an establishment in my life! There was no extra egg added, not 20 packs of duck sauce but 3…..
The rice is basically in a large chicken wing container…….THE HELL am I supposed to do with 3 duck sauces. You can barely get egg on your fork per bite…..
And it’s no utensils…..how even am I supposed to eat it…….
As minuscule as this may seem - again it’s just an accumulation of mishap after mishap after mishap.
I’m not even mad or angry I’m just so disappointed.
Throw the whole meal away! It don’t even taste good……
Fantastic experience here. Food are authentic, one the best Chinese food in dc. Staffs are so friendly. Also like their vibe inside, beautiful place with strong Asia fusion style

Everything was phenomenal. Between 3 people we had so much amazing different items to eat and oh my gosh it was tasty! I do wish the bartender “me” and staff could have lightened up a bit, smiled and showed they enjoyed their work but nope. The expressions were just meh so that was disappointing for someone coming from the New Orleans area. Like come on a smile! Enjoy yourself. Your patrons are there to have fun and eat good food. Y’all would make so much more money if you smiled and enjoyed yourselves more. I liked the food and the bottomless mai Thai’s which were off the hook good!!! I’ll be back for sure. The atmosphere was really nice with the big tree and decor was on point. I liked the process of waiting for a phone call when our table was ready but let patrons buy a drink at the bar and sit outside to wait for the call.

Incredibly overpriced (the prices in person are about $4 more than the online prices) for a super casual restaurant, and just be sure to know there’s a 22% included tip.
