Overall solid experience. Ambience was cozy but classy. We were seated about a half hour late due to the table before us taking their time, but the restaurant offered champagne on the house for that reason and fired up the dishes right away since we had one member of our party who had to catch a flight. Very kind of them. Every dish was great on the five course menu. We added oysters (highly recommend! Especially the hot ones) and the duck (half size) which were all also phenomenal and we were quite full after that. Hope to be back soon!

Michelin Star rated restaurant and my friends wanted to come here for their birthday, they’ve been here years ago but it was my first time. My friend made a reservation for 5 in advance, I think online. We had a 530 reservation and it took about 4 hours for our entire meal. There’s street parking and we all got lucky with finding our parking. They also can take your coats and bags. They greeted us with a birthday card on the table. We started with a bottle of French red wine for our table. Our servers were super kind and friendly. All of the courses were different and really good. We added an additional caviar savory cheesecake and a duck leg and shared it. We were surprised with the palette cleanser, birthday ice cream bars, and chocolates at the end. They had some bar seating not sure if they needed reservations. They also have a larger private dining area in the back. Nice cozy inside and outside vibe of the restaurant.

Interesting attempt fuse Chinese food with other cuisine. Won’t say it’s the best experience we had in similar restaurant (Michelin star). But definitely interesting. I don’t like there are so many extra that requires extra pay … not good for the overall experience, not worth it for $350 per person for sure. Also, the drink portion is tiny and service is super awkward … no one talks to us proactively and we have to ask for everything …
