    Had a pre-show reservation and when we got stuck in traffic for 1/2 an hour the staff was kind enough to hold our table. (5 PM reservation on a Friday) All staff we encountered were friendly. Service was super speedy and all food and beverages were excellent (though spicy; which we like, but worth noting). From tofu to roasted duck, to innovative drinks and dessert, all was beautifully plated and delivered promptly. We will definitely return!
