Everything we order was fantastic. From the dim sum platter to the seared tuna and calamari salad.

Would definitely recommend to go early or make a reservation because it is super busy when there is good food.

Service at the bar was horrible! Bartender was racist, gave me such a hard time and carded me when he didn't ask anyone else at the bar to see their ID.
