    I hosted my company Xmas dinner here last night for my employees. Glad they were able to accommodate all 12 of us. We did the Tasting Menu Iv. It was enough food/portions to go around for all of us the staff was amazing & they catered to us. More importantly the food was on point. I’ve been here multiple times but this time my employees got to experience & enjoy this top notch dinner.

    Soon as you walk into this restaurant you feel the vibrant energy from all angles. Staff is extremely professional and ready to attend to you. Place is huge with a nice bar as you wait for your resy. Sat upstairs with a view overlooking down wow the food was world class. Tasted so fresh and so good. The drinks were on point and the overall experience with my date was five stars.

    Super leckeres Essen, welches für New Yorker Verhältnisse günstig und gesund ist. Es ist ein grosses Lokal, weshalb es (leider) doch sehr laut war.

    Had a reservation. Came in 15 minutes early and still got sat after our reservation time. Overheard others talk about how they’ve been waiting 30+ minutes even though they have a reservation. Someone came to our table and offered us 3 types of water and did not introduce us who he was so did not know if he was going to be our server because we were ready to order as soon as we sat. Stopped at our table to ask how our food just once. Appetizers came in after 5 minutes of ordering but a 25-30 minute wait for our entree. General tso dumplings were good but was too sour because there was too much vinegar in them. Sichuan pork wontons was probably new to their menu according to no reviews but was the best dish we had here. Oxtail dumplings had a mushy inside and the oxtail meat was not tender so be ready to have a mushy and chewy experience. The chili rock shrimp was way too sour and the size of the shrimp is basically pebble size. Black pepper beef was also too sour but very tender. Jumbo shrimp was perfectly crispy and had a nice type of mayonnaise sauce on the outside; this dish is very common in Chinese cuisine. Crispy tofu was also fantastic. Wok fried cheung fun was very flavorful. Overall, food was good. I would not recommend anyone come here due to the pricing, experience, food, service and especially honoring reservation times. Do better Buddakan NY.
