Some of the best hospitality I’ve experienced in New York. I checked in for my reservation and the waitress Dani noticed that I had lost my voice. She offered complimentary tea and ginger as soon as I sat down, so thoughtful and personal. The food and ambiance was also great, but the service is what sets this place apart.

Had a couple of dumplings and a cocktail at the bar — both were good.The bartenders were friendly and attentive, which made for a really pleasant experience overall. Definitely planning to come back soon for a full dinner and drinks experience.

We had the best experience here tonight, this has become my new favorite spot. We got the cucumber salad (perfection), forest dumplings, har gow, duck fried rice (insanely good, with a touch of a curry taste and a fried egg ugh so good), and the night market chicken pot. Everything was incredible and Dani took such good care of us. To top it off we had the coffee ice cream… truly a perfect meal. Loved every bite, can’t wait to come back.

We popped in after dinner for dessert and tea, and I immediately loved the ambiance. It truly feels like you've walked into a retro Hong Kong restaurant, the vibe is definitely a 5/5!

They have an extensive tea menu, and given the slightly high prices, I went in with high expectations for quality. Unfortunately, the tea was a huge letdown. We ordered the Orchid Oolong (2/5) and were disappointed that the flavor wasn't bold or fragrant at all. It felt like the tea leaf quality didn't match the price point.

Thankfully, the dessert was good! My friend highly recommended the Yuan Yern Ice Cream (4.25/5), and it was delicious. The flavor was bold and authentic

Drinks are great! The skin of the Crab Rangoon is fair~but most of the dim sum could use a bit more refinement. for example, the dumpling filling could be softer and juicier. The highly praised Lobster Yee Mein definitely lives up to its reputation, flavorful and satisfying. The Jumbo Twin Lobster Tower was also delicious, though the 188 price tag feels a bit on the high side. Overall, it’s still an excellent experience. Too bad the takeout chicken wings were missed, I was looking forward to trying them next time.

Wins on ambiance and presentation, but the food is mediocre and not cheap. The crab rangoon had no crab and the cheese was bland. The wontons were good, but the portion was tiny. The trio clay pot had plenty of meat, but the pork and sausage were greasy, and the duck chewy. The small mocktail was fine, but expensive for a non-alcoholic small drink.

The food is GOOD! But what I really like is the vibe, whimsical, chic, yet nostalgic. The food is like a pan Chinese food with all the classic, they are delicious but also unmemorable, though the Dan Dan Noodles with peanut sauce is better than average. Yes, the vibe wins.

Wow, some of the dishes here were truly outstanding. We ordered the shrimp and noodles - something in that sauce was extremely addictive, would highly highly recommend. I also thought the green beans were very well done, but I’m also just a fan of my vegetables. Everything was solid and the service for 7 people on a Friday night was quite good! I appreciate that they have a collection of classic Chinese dishes (Dan Dan mian, beef noodle soup) as well as some creative twists to the original dishes!

Came here for drinks and was impressed by the atmosphere! Loving the Hong Kong inspired decor.

My favorite cocktails were the Plum Spritz and the Old Old New New.

Happy hour drinks were nice and unique. Our bartender was nice and attentive. Looking forward to coming back here for some food!
