    I was excited to try this restaurant as the menu seemed amazing and a refreshing twist to Asian food. Overall it was good. The flavor was great on the shredded salad. The chicken dumplings lacked something, related to the taste. I was expecting a burst of flavor but it didn’t connect. The shrimp and noodles was also just ok, not spectacular. I was hoping for more flavor.

    My husband and I made reservations for 5:00 pm. We arrived at 4:45 and were seated right away. We chose to sit outside. We had the chicken and a martini from the Happy Hour menu and we had the pork belly and the hamburger from the dinner menu. Because we were celebrating my birthday we received the Yuzu meringue pie on the house. Everything was excellent and our waiter was great. You will love it!!!!

    Their custom cocktails are fantastic. We really enjoyed them as we watched the boats cruising the River along the River Walk. Great for people watching because it is on the quiet end of the River Walk. Also Grace, our server was really awesome. I highly recommend the Brisket Egg Rolls and Shrimp with Noodles. The Pork Belly and Krab & Crab were ok. We will try some other items on our next visit but we won't be able to pass on the Brisket Egg Rolls. We will probably double our order. Service was very attentive and we never had to wait for refills.

    Unique concept of food. I came from Tokyo couple decades ago and wanted to try this place.. ingredients weee good but dressings and sauces are bit too acidic to me. Reason why it was 4 star. ,
