An Qi is a beautiful restaurant. The ambience and the service excel but the food pushes it over the top! The tuna taco appetizers are so good we almost always place another order! It is not inexpensive but you get what you pay for and I love it there!

The vibe here is awesome! I started with the shrimp and lobster dumplings, and they were to die for. I also tried the salt and pepper calamari, which was perfectly seasoned and super tasty. For my main course, I had the garlic noodles with prawns, and it was just as delicious. I’ve been here a few times now, and I’ve never left feeling less than satisfied. I’ll definitely be back for more!

Food and service were amazing but wish there was a more intimate and romantic table instead of seating everyone in a larger dining room. No sexy lighting besides the bar area and dirty stained menus.

To be honest, if you like beautiful and well-presented dishes, this is the place for you! Otherwise, everything else is very mediocre! Some of the dishes are COLD! The sashimi seems not fresh. On our night, The restaurant looked so understaffed. We were supposed to receive a special birthday card, but in the end, nothing was given

Overall food was good some dishes were too sweet, same sauce different dish like PF Chang’s. Very much overpriced. Would we come back? Maybe next time just for drinks and appetizers. All said our server was awesome! Very attentive and made our dining experience entertaining!
