Honestly can’t wait to go back.

Great service and food! Would recommend coming here if you want a nice dinner. A bit on the pricier side but you get your money's worth. read more Great service and food! Would recommend coming here if you want a nice dinner. A bit on the pricier side but you get your money's worth.

The top court ordered was the NY Strip and it was fantastic!!! I didn't want it to end, that was good over your average steak entree you could really taste the freshness of the steak. The bowl was full, but not too heavy. I am usually not a salad fan, but the salad was delicious with the right amount of dressing ah so big flavors. It went smooth, wouldn't have asked. Thank you.

The owner, Hillary, greeted regular customers warmly and was always gracious and smiling. The food was delicious and the unique twists on traditional dishes were a pleasant surprise. The BAO dish is a must-try, with a soft texture that practically melts in your mouth. The sweet potato gnocchi was perfectly seasoned, making it a satisfying comfort food. Overall, this place is definitely worth a visit - don't miss out!

Our waiter was personable, knowledgeable, and offered great suggestions for our meal. The meatloaf was particularly delicious. The bao was also fantastic. The cocktails were perfectly crafted. I definitely plan on returning in the future.
