    Owners are awesome and the service was great.. the concept is cool, where the dining area is above the bar/lounge and dance floor. So you can dine and then hang out for drinks and music after …cool addition to our downtown life !

    Fun new chinese cuisine restaurant with really good food and excellent prices. The 4 stars for service wasn’t because of the server, he was excellent and hustling. It was because he was the only one working the entire top floor so it was a little long before we could get water or drink refills. They also had competing music from the first floor which was trying to be a club and the top which was trying to be a restaurant. But if you go early I don’t think that will be a problem.

    Food was amazing. Great size portions, great prices and supper attentive staff. We probably over ordered, but had the following: fried rice (huge jumbo shrimps), birria spring rolls, box choy (with ginger) general chicken and beef and broccoli. Every dish was perfect. However, their fried chicken... might just be the best I have ever had. My only complaint, is maybe offer a dipping sauce for the chicken!!! Will be going back

    Drinks were great, but the food leaves more to be desired. The salad was dry. The entrees tasted no different than Panda Express with a price tag triple that.

    Went to this new restaurant and absolutely enjoyed the Wonton Souo and Kung Pao chicken. It was well made and flavors were delicious. I’d go back again to try other apps as I too full to try them! Portions were great and can totally do family style with friends here. They were also able to accommodate my mocktail request which is a bonus for me!

    I just found my new favorite Chinese food in San Diego. We loved the Mongolian Beef the most but everything was so tasty. The servers were so kind and the atmosphere is cozy and appealing!
