Got the tasting menu since I had no idea what to order and the average of all the dishes was very very good. The beef shin and celery root was the best thing I tried. The sauce was incredibly flavorful!! It ended up being about 25% too much food for me to eat in one meal overall, but I will happily have the leftovers for breakfast. A couple dishes did not hit for me personally, but the majority were lovely

Four of us tried Happy Crane for the first time this evening. It exceeded expectations. The dishes we ordered: scallop dumpling, firecracker shrimp, skirt steak, crispy mushroom, pork jowl and black cod were all excellent. As was the mango sorbet. The flavorful sauces on all the dishes really stood out. Our server Aaron was fantastic as was the team around him. The one disappointment was the rudeness of the sommelier but we ordered wines by the glass which were very good. Those who had cocktails thought they were unusual and... read more
