The fried rice was terrible. It taste and smelled like a raw egg. The shrimp in it were overcooked.

The lo mein was awful. The sweet and sour chicken was decent . Nothing you could not get at. Corner chinese store. It does NOT compare to Tao or Phillippe Chow. The crab was so salty it was not edible.

The service was great!! The staff was amazing!

came here tonight for my friends birthday dinner, Great place with a nice ambience.. As for the food, it came out quick, but Be prepared to spend at least $50 on some basic Chinese food.My only complaint was our server was not attentive whatsoever. He forgot to put in several of our items and just laughed it off when we mentioned it. Another big issue was that we got our food packaged to go and they mixed all of our food up in the incorrect bags so now our whole party went home with incorrect food. This is a huge concern because we had a few allergies at the table and based off our waiters need to laugh when a mistake is made makes us seem this was on purpose. Another table behind us as well had a party for her birthday as well And the same server made the same mistake and gave everyone incorrect food to go home and were visibly upset , which is completely unacceptable and unprofessional. mistakes don’t happen twice, this was intended and seemed like The waiter was upset and had to deal with two different birthday parties.

Wouldn’t let my boyfriend in with sweats when we’ve been here multiple times in sweatsuits. After he was denied 2 people were let in with sweats. Hate to make it a race issue but 🤷🏽‍♀️

Thought the place was going to be a unique experience. Not the case food was mediocre and drinks were nothing special. Crab fried rice and lobster rolls weren’t exciting. Had to keep signaling the waiter to order different drinks thinking that it would be different. Don’t believe the hype of this place. Pass on this nice catchy name restaurant that’s all that’s good about it. I wish I could say Less about this place waste of $200

I’m in the Private room right now while writing this review. I’ve been waiting for a hookah over 1 hour and 30 mins but others around Ashley and I have hookah’s after we order before others of different race. I don’t want to say that but that’s what it’s feeling like! STILL NO HOOKAH!!!! Updating my review!

Horrible.
Made reservations as a friend wanted to come here, not sure why as the place was seemingly empty the last time I was here anyways, wonder why!
Upon arriving we barely made it inside. Two security stopped us for dress code. Wouldn’t allow us in with sneakers. I’m sorry, I have seen a ton of ghetto dressed low class people here previous times, when I mentioned this they asked if I had a private room, if I did apparently it wouldn’t have been an issue. Tried to speak to a manager, this wasn’t allowed. We left as I’m not arguing to get into a place like this nor am I tipping security which is what they seem to want. This place is a joke and the food is subpar. We got into tao downtown with no issue right after. Had we not been white/ Spanish we would have most likely got in no problem. I will never give this establishment a dime again. Disgusted

The bartender David is the absolute best!!! He made up a drink on the Spot with bourbon that was absolutely amazing! The spicy tuna crispy rice is Bussin!! The host was not the most friendly but it was busy and I didn’t have a reservation.

Food & Drinks: If you can just stick to the appetizers. The mains really lacked in flavor once we finished the appetizers. The appetizers did not disappoint at all! The drinks were phenomenal, it will give you a buzz and tastes great!

Service: If I could give 0 stars I would. He was inattentive, I had to constantly find him when we needed something. He never checked in on how our meal was going or if we even needed anything. The buss-boys were seen more frequently and asked us how we were more than our sever, definitely brings the experience value down by a lot.

Ambiance/Vibes: Music was GREAT! The atmosphere is very picturesque for all the content creators out there.

Will I be going back…. Definitely not. Do I recommend it - yes. This is a one time place to eat, I can get better service and food elsewhere for 1/2 the price, but it was fun for a midweek girls night.

Bathrooms were clean which I love.!

Service and atmosphere were good until someone came around to take pictures and then try to sell them to you for $25 a piece. No thank you, that ruins dinner. Food was good all but the fried rice which was mediocre at best.

Was here for a birthday dinner. Quickly realized that the resturaunt was more focused on vibes than the actual food. We were immediately asked by the photographer to pose for a gazillion photos which were later being sold to us at a premium price. I get that's a feature that groups celebrating a big occasion, but it seemed to interrupt our conversations of a group just trying to have a good time.
We ordered a bunch of vegetarian and non-vegetarian appetizers and mains. Food was quite average, with the only thing good being the yuzu cheesecake and the black bean prawn.
I do have a bone to pick with the server though, he was extremely rude, didn't listen to us and really spoiled our experience. He even added gratuity automatically for a party of four, without informing us.
For a resturaunt that is in prime location and has a good space and ambience, please do better.

The drinks were very good, I had the Sei Less Drink more without moscato. The food I ordered was okay, I wasn’t real hungry so I ordered the chicken lettuce wraps and vegetable fried rice. I didn't like that the chicken was (minced) diced up very small. I would have preferred regular sliced chicken. Nice ambiance, good music, great service.
