The noise level was extremely high. The food was mediocre at the price point it was placed. $45 for a shrimp lo mein with taste value was less than the local Chinese restaurant, I pass. The service on the other hand was very good with attentive waiters. If you asked me would I return? No. I will say overall you are paying for the restaurant’s popularity. Keep your money in your wallet.
