   We enjoy the food and the atmosphere but more importantly we did not have to cook dinner today!

   High end Chinese restaurant that delivers. Strong history to back up their ongoing success. I look forward to next visit.

   We had a family Christmas Eve celebration in a private room which was perfect for the occasion which included three younger grandsons. The room was perfect and as a bonus included karaoke which we surprisingly used! Such fun! Food was wonderful. We sampled lots of dishes including Peking duck all very good. Josh did a great job with service. Overall a really perfect experience and a reasonable value as well. We will be back in the future!

   This was our first time here and we were very excited to try their food and were really hoping this could be our new go to Chinese food restaurant that the local area really needs. Service was terrible for a what is suppose to be a nice restaurant. It took 10 minutes to bring us water, we got our dumplings after our entrees, our server never checked on us after we got our food, and we only got our bill after we waited 20 minutes when we flagged down the manager. The manager made the typical apologies and excuses, but he or another manager should have been checking on tables in they know they have inexperienced wait staff.

   Our server, Gabel, was absolutely fantastic. However, the overall service score is 100% reflective on how long it took for the bar to get drinks up and ready. We were at our table for 45 minutes, partway through our meal, when the drinks finally arrived. Yes it was worth the wait. The food is absolutely fantastic and I can’t wait to go there again.

   We arrived and were seated right away. The restaurant is very nice and well lit. The quality and authenticity of the ingredients was excellent! The ingredients and recipes were spot on. Bravo. Soup and appetizers were excellent. We then waited quite a while for the main courses, and when we got them, they were just warm , not hot. Very tasty and great presentation, but after just a few minutes they were stone cold. The runners at times seemed confused as to whose food was who’s, not sure what that was all about.

   food mixed - need to look carefully at preparation notes - there was high % of deep fried vs stir fried. deep fried we did not think were at all unique or exceptional, just very salty. dumplings, hot and sour soup, cold spicy cucumber appetizer and chili wontons quite good (dumplings excellent). won ton soup uninspired. service was quite good, despite being very busy very pretty restaurant, but was loud (weekend) way overpriced for the uniqueness of the food

    Beautiful interior, quality food; a bit lacking on the flavor. We had Peking duck, whole fish, and a vegetable dish, all of which were a bit bland. We left full but not quite satisfied. Our server was less to be desired; he hovered and tried three times to take my husband’s soup away when the soup bowl was still half-full. He then, for whatever reason, took the remaining pancakes from the steamer and placed them on the duck plate. We were turned off by that. The server also did not ask if we wanted coffee or tea or dessert. Overall, average food and substandard service.
