This restaurant came highly recommended but we found the food for average. It did have a fun ambiance.

Outstanding meal and service. All of the staff act like one big family. Great happy hour. Loved the $1 dumplings but the garlic noodles... WOW!
Aris
Best spot for Brunch the unlimited dimsum and mimosa are highly recommended. Dimsum were so good and legit! I'm asian and I can tell that it was made fresh and world class quality!
Opentable Diner
The restaurant is so loud that we decided to wait an hour for a table outside. The bar tender wasn't friendly And the food was disappointing. The server was very nice though.

We went as a family and the bar atmosphere was extremely lively. As it was a nice evening we asked if we could sit outside where it was quieter and the amazing staff accommodated us. Thank you!

Be prepared to end your experience in 90 minutes bc they kick you out no matter how swift the service on food and drinks. We enjoyed, but were barely done with our entree when notified our time was up. Mood let down and not a place to go if you want to sit and enjoy.

My friends and I had the pork bao, shrimp bao, karaage, salmon rice, and the duck. Everything was outstanding. Can't say enough about the food. Andres was our server and he was fantastic. He was there whenever we needed him but was mot over bearing at all. Great experience, go here if you get the opportunity!!
Priscilla
Hostess was so kind, gave us a fully body welcome and promptly seated us. Our server was also really nice and service was quick, all our needs were met and he never hovered. I didn't take anyone's name, but I'll definitely be coming back

Excellent food with attentive servers. Sia made recommendations, matching us to dishes we loved. Bustling place but still feels like a personalized experience.

Atmosphere was really nice, fried rice was slammin and the Old Fashioned was made to perfection.
We went during happy hour and the place was jam packed within 30 minutes of opening. The dumplings were very tasty. They come 4 to an order and are sizable. We tried a few other menu items. The chicken kara age was almost a meal in itself. It was spicy with good flavor. The staff were courteous and attentive. Food and drinks were efficiently delivered. Also, my wife enjoys hot tea, so she really enjoyed the tea options. Highly recommend reservations if you go.

It was really loud. So maybe not great for people with any difficulty hearing, but the food was so good this really made no difference to us. Well worth your time to eat here!

Last night I attended a birthday dinner at this establishment and it was by far one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had at a restaurant - they truly ruined what was meant to be a special celebration with the worst treatment and service.
1) it took over 20 minutes to get a glass of wine delivered to my seat at the table. All the cocktail orders and even appetizers arrived at the table before my glass of wine. The cocktails might be premixed since they arrived so quickly compared to a glass of wine.
2) when I was drinking my glass of wine, I noticed there was something inside the glass that maybe looked like salt or ice. It was off putting and at a $16 a glass, the wine should be served perfect. When I mentioned to the server that I’d like another glass, he took the glass away and brought it back less than a minute later with an excuse from the bartender or someone above him that the materials in the glass were remnants from the winemaking process that naturally are found in wine. Sure I’m aware of that. But that’s extremely annoying that and for $16 a glass could you have strained it or just poured another glass so that my experience is enjoyable? Not at this place. Instead the manager or bartender followed the server with an attempt to educate me about sediment in wine bottles and ensure me that no one was trying to poison or spike my drink… what kind of mess was that? Also never said that was what was going on …. It was real disrespectful and completely unnecessary.
3) the server raised his voice and was visually annoyed with our group because we were engaged in conversation when he and the staff were dropping off plates. He must not have labeled the seats with the orders he put in/took which would have made service much more seamless and wouldn’t require him to interrupt our conversations and shout out our food orders at the table. Maybe that’s an old practice that servers did but they don’t do that here apparently.
I get we were one of three groups in the small restaurant on a busy Saturday night but there’s really not an excuse for this type of treatment. It’s a shame that in today’s economy patrons are spending more on less and automatically charged 20 percent gratuity + weird service fees and this is the type of service delivered. Such a disappointing experience at what was supposed to be a special celebration with friends.

Happy Hour dumpling bar. Drinks were good, don’t advise the MSG Martini. $1 dumpling happy hour is hard to beat, with good (but not great) dumplings. Pork and chicken are better than the veggie, with pork leaning heavy on ginger. Steamed and fried are both solid options.

I love this place. I come often but I usually sit at the bar. Today I sat at a table for lunch and the service was TERRIBLE. Our server, Sia C, catered to the people across from us. They were white…….... had to ask 3 times for our Diet Coke while she refilled all of their drinks. I asked for a carafe for my mimosa because again I watched her consistently refill the other tables drinks with champagne during unlimited brunch to the brim while my glass stayed empty. The carafe she brought me was dirty twice with white hair (my hair is black) and soy sauce splashed all over the the carafe and had the nerve to give attitude about it. Terrible terrible service experience. I’m so disappointed. When I saw her slam her fist on the table because the other tables drinks possibly didn’t tip her was sad to see but also the reason why you don’t treat people differently based on the color of their skin. Do better in hiring your servers.
