Very dissatisfied & disappointed, I get very bad service in this restaurant, the waiters are very rough, not recommended at all to eat in this restaurant 👎🏻
A lively, cheerful spot tucked into a big downstairs space, where the energy is always buzzing. Dishes come out on large sharing plates, set on lazy Susans so everyone can dig in together - it feels social right away. The food strikes a nice balance: authentic flavors mixed with familiar crowd-pleasers, all done really well. It's the kind of place where you can keep it simple with a solid beer or wine, or go fun with a canned pina colada.

Very cozy atmosphere, amazing staff, & amazing food. Service was very quick great for people needing a quick bite. The green bean dish was my favorite it had a perfect crunch to it & the hot sour soup was very warming.
