Walking in, loved the atmosphere. The layout is nice & when we went the place was pretty much empty. Food was a meh. Ordered veg dumplings which were good but over priced for 4 pieces. Teriyaki rice with tofu was my favourite considering our other main dish- pad sew was a disappointment. I had ordered the pad sew without egg & was served it with egg. Had i been allergic, it would've been a huge issue. I was then told the kitchen had closed the wok station. 15 mins later was told they'll make a new pad sew for me. Very very bland. Felt rushed. The service was VERY slow considering the restaurant was empty. Servers walked around without making eye contact or responding to calls for them. I only gave them 2 stars for service because they offered to open the kitchen for me but overall was a disappointment for the price. Edit- I had brought the pad sew home. All it needed was some more garlic, ginger, onion & salt to elevate the dish.
Belle expérience ! Les sauces dans les mets étaient plutôt tièdes. Le chauffage était bruyant dû à une défectuosité. La nourriture était succulente & la serveuse très gentille. Nous sommes des habitués & y retournerons!

C'était une 2e visite pour nous. Nourriture avec peu de goût & a tiède. Le temps entre les services était long. 3 heures pour un souper c'est vraiment trop long!
Service was quick, food was good. However, the space is too crowded. It is a relatively small space & there is no privacy as the tables are much to close together. Even walking around the restaurant is tight in some areas.
Le service a été trop lent notre pichet a été servi après 30 min & nous n'avons pas eu assez de 2h pour souper. Nous avons dû partir sans manger notre dessert car nous avions un spectacle
Petite lacune dans le service je ne crois pas que se soit de la faute de la serveuse je crois quelle en avait beaucoup trop sur les bras pour passer le ""Rush" de l' avant spectacle mais quand même délicieux!
Je retournerais... Merci!
Les serveurs semblaient débordés. Vous étiez peut-être low staff, mais si le serveur nous l'avait simplement dit, on aurait été compréhensifs & on se serait pas demandé si on avait été oubliés. Miguel était super gentil quand même & s'excusait des délais.

Nous avons attendu 35min pour une table avec réservation. Tous les employés étaient débordés, nous n'avions pas d'eau, pas d'ustensiles lorsque nos repas ont été servis, etc.
Les tables sont très rapprochées les unes des autres, on entend toutes les conversations. Pourtant, une grande section du resto est vide. Il serait bien de disperser les gens afin d'assurer une certaine intimité. Merci!
