    The service was great, and the food was outstanding. I highly recommend trying the $44 per person menu option — you won’t regret it. They give you so much food and plenty of choices. They even acknowledged our Anniversary and brought us a special desert!

    I had dinner here. Beautiful space on the water. The restaurant itself has a cafe feel. Very nice space. Service was great and the people there seemed to all enjoy it. The food was great. I had Peking duck spring rolls - which aren’t on the menu but are available. I also had pork pan fried dumplings. Then I had the spicy filet mignon. I thought it was really good and not that spicy - tasty without being overly spicy. It had a lot of onions with it and I’d probably prefer more bell peppers but definitely would order it again. They have a full bar. Overall I thought it was a great experience particularly given that there are few top notch Asian restaurants in the area.
