    One of the best kept secrets around although not much of a secret anymore! Chef Hales does an amazing job and this quaint spot offers a tremendous diverse menu with an exceptionally friendly and attentive staff. Chef personally greets each table during your meal and shows gratitude and appreciation which has certainly become a lost art in todays world. Love this spot. Consistently awesome each and every time.

    Hales is a quaint restaurant with consistently excellent food and service! We have dined here many times and highly recommend the Soup Dumplings, Salt & Pepper Shrimp, Brussels Sprout, Prime Ribeye, and Yangzhou Fried Rice as some of our favorites.

    Excellent food but Food came way too fast between sitting down, ordering, then food all came at once in 10 min! Space out your orders we asked several times to space it out but every dish was on table at once

    Everything was good… I don’t have anything bad to say about the experience. That said… $32 for fried rice is excessive… you can get solid Chinese food at other places for less.. so I’m sorry to say the value proposition isn’t there..
