    They were very kind to accommodate our party of 6 before another reservation, even though time was tight. Excellent food, friendly staff!

    The food was delicious and each dish has unique flavors. The crispy chive cakes were outstanding, and we loved that they had a dedicated vegan menu.

    The flavors are SO fantastic. Such seemingly simple dishes and cocktails pack such a tastebud punch! Everything was amazing, but the Mapo Tofu and chrysanthemum greens stole our hearts. We got the best seat in the house- bar stools right in front of the kitchen. Amazing to watch this skilled staff work together and curate each order. Service was lovely too, we will certainly be coming back!

    Best restaurant in town! The food is consistently spectacular, the staff is friendly and so kind, and the ambience is warm and comfy. The Kuay Teow Kua Gai and Albacore Tuna are my favorite dishes but you cannot go wrong with any dish on the menu.
