    Great service from Julianne, Generals chicken and spicy won tons were our favorites. Hot and sour soup needs more heat. Decent Martini for the price.

    First visit, very impressed. Seated immediately, service friendly, quick and attentive. Was given time to catch up with friends, and sprung to attention on our signal. Menu wide-ranging and appealing. Selections we ordered over the top fantastic. Great experience top to bottom. Only downside is the noise level is off the chart. Don't let that deter enjoying the place. JF

    We ordered salt and pepper fish, gyoza, Donhau soup, tofu w/beef wagyu. The soup and gyoza were average, nothing different. I do love the fish and the tofu w/beef wagyu.

    This was our first time dining here and we wanted to celebrate Lunar New Year. The experience was fantastic! Julien/Julian was an excellent server, the cocktails were great and the food was reasonable and well worth the money. We will be coming here again!

    The food and drinks are wonderful, but it is SO LOUD it’s hard to carry in a conversation. Also, our waiter brought our dinner out too fast as we had barely received our cocktails and appetizer. For that reason I gave it 4 stars. Might be better to go when you can sit outside.
