    The food is overpriced. The service is adequate at best. We were four people and one appetizer arrived first, then another ther and then the last two arrived when first two were finished. At that time one main coarse arrived while the appetizers were finished. I would not ever come back. The price was ridiculous based on the quality of the food. $600.00 for four appetizers, four main courses and two glasses of wine. Not happy with this place.

    I ordered a specific type of steak. I did not know about the switch until I got the bill. I ordered medium rare I got a steak that was cold and raw in the middle. Grilled vegetables were also barely cooked. Tempura batter was taste less and not especially crispy . Steak they gave me was more expensive than what I ordered.

    We had a great dining experience. Food was excellent. Our server was terrific. Loved the special margarita from the Bar Chef. Braised beef pot stickers, pad Thai and General Tso Chicken were all highlights.

    We ordered a Maki On Fire roll and the Peking Duck; both were superb. We were seated by the kitchen which provided a show unto itself. But, the true delight of the dinner was our waiter Arturo; we was friendly, attentive, and knowledgable.

    The two starters were very good — Shrimp Tempura & Pot Stickers. However, the General Tso Chicken entree was only fair. The pieces were over cooked, not tender. The serving, for the price was small, and the amount of rice provided was pathetic (very inadequate). Also, the music was not in keeping with a good restaurant, not restricted to the background — odd music, loud, and not appropriate for a supposedly classy dining establishment.
