   Our initial impression was very poor. Woman at front desk barely acknowledged us. We had reservations and the restaurant had many empty tables. She told us (kind of demanded) that we sit in the alcove area and that another gal (don't remember the name, but she had green hair) would seat us. After about 8-10 minutes I went to desk to find out why we weren't being seated and she said, oh, follow me. She wanted to seat us in the back room in between other full tables. I asked for a table not so close to other guests (because of Covid and trying to social distance). She made a face and some comment under her breath and did seat us in a more open area. Our waitress was great. But my initial order of edamame, not so much...not at all bright green and definitely over-cooked, with the outside of the pods coming off in pieces in our mouth. I sent them back. The second order was fine. I know restaurants, in particular, are struggling. But, I think that the employees that are working would make every effort to be smiling and at least pleasant and that food that doesn't look right wouldn't be served.

   Although the restaurant is located in a strip mall, the ambiance is good with lovely interior design. Rather than having the average decor in an Asian restaurant, they choose pastel colors with a contemporary design that is pleasing to the eye. The services was excellent and the food was very tasty. The portion sizes were ample. We choose the Mongolian beef & Drunken Noodles (very spicy). The carrot cake was moist and delicious.

   The shrimp appetizer was good, as was the seaweed salad. I had the orange chicken stir fry which was ok, but nothing to write home about. My son had the chicken fried rice which he enjoyed, but again, was nothing special. $70 plus tip was a lot to pay for this quality of food.

   Very impressive food and service is incredible! Sara(h) (sorry) was wonderful and recommended some of the best things we've tried here. We were long time take-out customers but will be back to dine in much more!

   It was a very slow night. Lots of empty tables. Food was great as usual but service was not like our previous visits. Always needed to find our waitress for everything. Ordered drinks…waited then ordered again. She was not friendly like our other servers that we’ve had. Never checked on us. We had to keep asking other servers to get ours. This was so strange….she clearly didn’t want to be there. It’s a good thing we were not in a hurry at all. Kind of disappointed. Will definitely request our two favorite servers when making a reservation.

   This was a birthday celebration. I had been to this restaurant a few times before and enjoyed both the food and service. This time the service was horrible! The waiter had trouble even getting our drink order correct - i ordered a vodka and cranberry and he brought me straight vodka. We were not in a rush and were completely ok hanging out and getting our meals slow-rolled however there were 9 of us and 8 people had finished their entire meals before mine was even brought out. 2 people in my party had ordered soup, which never came. And when mine came to the table it was wrong - i have a food allergy that i had informed the waiter of when i ordered my food - i couldn’t have sesame seeds and there were sesame seeds all over the top of my chicken dish! He just nodded when i stated that and said he’d put in a new order and when i asked if it would take just as long to make he said the kitchen was backed up so yeah. No apology, no offer to get it to me quickly. Everyone else in my party was done eating and we had been at the restaurant 2 hours. I asked for the manager - it took another 30 minutes for her to get to our table - she was running the kitchen and there had been even more issues happening that night. She was very gracious and offered to package up food to go for me and a coupon for food on a return visit. Unfortunately, due to the size of our table (even though we had separate checks) they automatically added 20% tip to the bills and, instead of removing the orders that were messed up and forgotten about, they “comp’d” them which meant the tip was based off of the bill with those meal items included. What is sad is this waiter has ruined this place for us- no matter how good the food is - we won’t be going back - don’t waste your money either. The price isn’t worth the lack of service you receive.

   The ambiance is great, nice decor. Hostess does her job exceptionally well. The waitress we had was not that great. Needed to be reminded of things such as a spoon to serve our food and a bag to take our leftovers home. GREAT food! I am going back in two weeks.

    The wait to be seated was incredibly long, the food was alright but once again the wait was extremely long even for that as well. Our waiter was apologetic at the end however we spent most of our visit just trying to find him… it was a one time experience.

    The food came out cold and it took forever to get to our table. Our server John was very good and polite and got all of our orders right. But the kitchen and the bar were very slow. We had our appetizers before we had the drinks

    Service? There was none from what we could tell. We left because no one came over to our table. We saw other people getting waited on.... even people whose complete party wasn't even there yet. There are plenty of other places we can go... we won't be back there again.

    Absolutely wonderful Mother's Day dinner!!! We had the crab rangoon, sushi, bao buns, and beef lo mein. Everything was outstanding. The dishes were flavorful but not heavy. You can really taste the freshness of the ingredients. Our waiter Joe could not have been nicer!!!! It made my day even more special.

    We are a little jury out on whether or not we would come back… The food flavoring was a little bit odd on our wok meals- The crab Rangoon's were excellent. Service was horrendous but it was Mother's Day and I know everyone is shortstaffed but literally I had to go hunt down our waitress multiple times

    Restaurant was very good and food was impressive. My only critique on food was that they use soybean oil but otherwise no MSG. Staff was very helpful except for our table’s waitress who didn’t collect our plates when we were done or bring dessert spoons before cake (she brought it after and we had to ask). It was a birthday and they didn’t bring any candles or give a discount or free something (like how some restaurants will bring a slice of cake or a dessert). Overall a good experience, I hope next time waitress will be more helpful to guests and that something special will be brought for a guest who has a Birthday.

    We enjoyed our visit. The menu has a wide variety of offerings. We ordered several different things - appetizers, sushi, main entrees, etc. The food was great. The only thing I was a little disappointed with was that when making a reservation on Open Table, there was a section that asked if we were celebrating a special occasion. I marked "birthday" since my son was turning 19 that day. The server wasn't aware of our celebration from the reservation and didn't ask if we were celebrating anything special. Even if she would have said happy birthday I would have been fine. What is the point of indicating it on the reservation if no one sees it (or cares about it)? Overall, the food was good and other than the birthday issue, our server was great.
