Came on a Tuesday night an hour before kitchen closed (sorry). Food was great and drinks were strong; all of it came quick. Wear sweats or a polo, you get what you pay for in the best way.

Miso soup tasted like straight soy sauce and the tofu was over cooked the smell was unappetizing and also instead of the soup being a golden color it was dark brown it tasted nothing like miso soup. For the lobster Rangoon dip the fried Rangoon chips were good but the dip itself was bland it just tasted like they topped it with pepper and there was a random single piece of a chunk of meat which didn't taste bad but it was random being the only meat in it the sake tasted and smelt like wine it didn't even come out cold like they said it would lastly the "steamed buns" weren't even authentic they were bao buns and it was unappetizing how the "bun" was steaming hot and the shrimp was ice cold

The atmosphere was the best part even though it was pretty dark. I had the new year lunar lo mein, it was a special. The dish was made with ramen noodles and it was so salty. The banh mi is a very sad BLT with carrots and pickled jalapenos instead of tomato. If you want good banh mi, go to Banh Mi Boys. I would highly recommend that you stay away from this place. Disgrace to Asian cuisine.

The food wasinedible to me. The shrimp shumai was full of blended shrimp liquid. The Banh Mi was disgusting; it had a 'paste' that tasted like asphalt. It was the worst food I have ever eaten. But the drinks Were ok.

That rare experience when EVERYTHING is right. First time here and highly recommend. Sat at the bar near the wait service pickup corner. Great seats and enjoyed the show of the excellent bar crew. Prices are surprisingly reasonable.

The Dragon Room has not only done wonders for the Vista, but for me. This is exactly what the area needed and I can honestly say that I really hope this place sticks around for a very long time! Excellent dumplings (gyoza) (every flavor to be exact), ramen, and fabulous cocktails! Service is fabulous every time! Shoutout to Rebecca Hardee she is top tier and super knowledgeable of the menu, and id 100% request her to be in charge of ur table!

I went here for my birthday and the food was amazing! Everything we tried was really delicious. Our waiter was pretty slow all night, and it wasn't super busy, but other than that, everything was fantastic.
Amazing ambience with cool neon light signs. Everything single item was superb ! No reservations needed but arrive early to get a good parking spot by the restaurant.

I had been wanting to try this new restaurant that sits in the old restaurant DiVino location on Gervais Street. I waited to try it for several months because I was hoping all the kinks would be worked out by the time we tried it and decided to go for our big birthday celebration that my friend and I do every year. The renovations are really cool but the place is very dark and the music is really loud. We were at a small table for 4 but could barely carry on a conversation with our friends. We ordered about 12 plates...almost everything on the menu and a few specials for the night. Sadly.. one was worse than the other, and although we told our waitress we did not mind the order in which the plates were presented, we DID NOT expect to receive all the plates practically at once! The table was quickly overwhelmed, and we felt extremely rushed. While I understand turning over tables, this was ridiculous! Korean meatballs were tastsless.. even the sauce did not help. The best dish we had was the lobster rangoon dip, which was tasty but served like a dip and not the traditional dough, pursed, rangoon you would normally think of. Tuna tataki.. no taste, BBQ mushrooms... pretty good, as were the scallops, which were a special that night. Pork belly steam buns and shrimp steam bun were ok but only 2 pieces for $10.00. The cabbage pancake was mediocre and really had no taste other than cabbage and the eggs rolls were horrendous and tasted like they were made for only carrots or sweet potatoes..icky! They were huge..but size doesn't matter when it tastes like garbage. I sooo wanted to like this place but it was a huge disappointment. Gonna be a while before I we go back here. Our friends felt the same and we left as 4 disappointed people and 2 VERY disappointed Birthday girls!

What a fun dinner last week and we didn't have to worry about stupid reservations. Once you arrive up the steps you are transported into a mindset. Forget about your troubles and pony up to the bar. Drinks are well thought out not overly sweet ours had citrus and vanilla with crystallized ginger atop the drink. Beers were from the Philippines and a few other Asian countries. BBQ mushrooms and bao buns were delicious especially the fried chicken bun. Need to go again to conquer the other half of the menu soon.

Found this restaurant cruising downtown looking for a new dinner spot.We arrived small wait ordered drinks from the bar, and we were seated pretty fast.Our server took forever to come finally made it out my dinner date ordered some type of cocktail called the golden house she really didn't care for way to much ice but made it work.We ordered the bulgogi sliders for starters and they were actually really good.For dinner it was our first time we noticed portions were generous so we shared a plate of Nasi Lemak it was ok I'm not a fan on edamame the dish is loaded with edamame overall it was good.The restaurant for me is the perfect size not to big not to small just right for the right amount of people.Will try again in the future.

Food and drinks were great! We went last minute and sat at the bar with friends. The beef tips were perfectly cooked. Drinks were really good. Fun vibe.
