I had an outer body experience at Mott 32 because the food was that good. I made a reservation to be able to order the pecking duck and BBQ pork. These items are only available for pre-order as they do have limited quantities, and I'm glad I did. They give you all the fixings for the duck: the pancake, sesame-hoisin sauce, shallot, and cucumber. The BBQ pork was also exceptional. Apart from those two items we had the soup dumplings and wagyu beef string beans. Everything was delicious. I came visiting from the states but would come back to Vancouver just to have this meal again. read more

What a nice experience. The food and service were very good. We ate there before a show. Make a reservation for sure. It's always busy in Vegas! read more

One of the best dining experiences we've had! Once you enter the restaurant, you're transported to an upscale restaurant adorned with beautiful artwork on the walls and rustic artifacts, i.e. bird cages hanging above our table. Service was professional, friendly, and prompt. Excellent recommendations. A bar cart came by to take our drink orders. The Hanami was a delicious, well balanced cocktail; highly recommended. The Black Angus Short Rib was the best we've ever tasted; it was tender and succulent, paired with a wonderful sauce, not overpowering. The Lobster Ma Po Tofu was well constructed, with the perfect amount of spice. The table next to us ordered the Peking Duck which was served tableside. We shall have to remember to order this 48hr in advance next time we come. Our servers bid us farewell at the door while we exited, wow! An exceptional restaurant; will come again to try the other signature items. Well worth the $$$$ for such a superb experience. It is located in the Trump Tower. Don't judge. This is not political ;). Short walk to/from Burrard Station. read more

My wife and I celebrated our 44th anniversary at Mott 32 this evening and we must say the experience was exceptional. We have dined at Mott 32 many times before, and the food is always great, but this evening was made special largely due to the service. We were very fortunate to have Kamal (sp?) serving us. We sincerely hope we aren't misspelling her name (and likely we are) - she was the personification of perfection and made our anniversary that much better. Sincerely, David and Sandy Miller read more

We splurged dining here tonite! Think Chinese food fine dining. Cristal champagne helps sets the mood too! We preordered a whole Peking duck and bbq pork when we made our reservations. We had a variety of dishes. The portions are on the small side, so we ordered and ate family style to try more things. Had to get the bird nest soup! It's not served anymore in the States . It was as good as I remembered. Bbq pork was tender with the right amount of sweetness. The nicest surprise was the shao long bao which was served in its own littkr basket as to not pop the skin and keep the juice inside. Also, it was not the usual color either , but a fun color instead. The shu mai had a surprise in the middle ... a quail egg in the middle topped with a smidge of truffle . This dumpling was soooo good. It tasted very luxurious. The duck arrived and a chef personally cut the skin and meat portions which we ate with thin crepes. The duck skin was crispy but the meat was a bit dry , which is why I gave one less star. Otherwise, the evening was just about perfect. This was an expensive and memorable meal. read more

Setting: This is a beautiful restaurant, great bar great for photos and great for groups/ dates. Service: Impeccable, the server was very knowledgeable made great suggestions, and acknowledged me being a pescatarian. Presentation for the food overall was also great. Food: First of all, this is a very expensive restaurant. The espresso martinis are 22$ each for a single, I mean they do taste good... Lettuce wraps I was a fan of, they had great amount of flavour. Probably my fav thing, Spring rolls, were kind of basic to be honest, tasted a bit too oily. Seafood soup was pretty good. I am a dim sum fan, and I wouldnt say this was the best dim sum experience, perhaps it could just be that I had gone in the evening. There isnt a tun of options for seafood dim sum, but the one lobster roll for 18$ was pretty good, but then again it cost 18$ I mean, the food wasnt horrible, I just dont know if it is was worth the price or maybe I just needed to try other items on the menu... read more

First lunch in Vancouver! We went to Mott 32 in the Trump Tower for some fancy dim sum. The quality of the Chinese cuisine in Vancouver is unbeatable. There were so many delicious options, and Mott 32 even had a separate vegetarian menu with many vegan options! This was definitely the best dim sum I've ever had, and Mott 32 had the best service and decor of any Chinese restaurant I've been to. Wild mushroom and water chestnut dumplings Wild mushroom and vegetable spring rolls Wok fried broccoli with red dates, gingko nuts, and fried bean curd read more

Mott32 is an experience. Attentive Staff. Impeccable Food. Beautiful Ambience. --- Food -- We attended for a birthday dinner, pre-ordering the duck (1 day in advance) and it was served to perfection. The short rib was succulent and beautiful and melted like butter. The dim sum we ordered included a truffle filling and was bursting with flavour and aroma. To top it off, the spicy octopus was to die for and I am still trying to convince them to give me the recipe. --- Drinks --- Beautiful cocktails with Benji as a fantastic and charismatic bartender. A good (not lengthy) selection of liquors thankfully including the Louis XIII, which was beautifully presented. Mark is a fantastic sommelier with a good understanding of wine and food pairings as well as a beautifully unique selection of wines. --- Service --- Well. Service is 50% of the experience. And it did not disappoint. Even when I attended about a week later for drinks with a friend, I was greeted at the door, treated very well and seated at the bar immediately. The staff are friendly, well trained and cheerful. --- Overall --- I cannot stop raving about this place. Without a doubt, if you've got the budget, this is the best food in Vancouver, beating out Blue Water Cafe, Gotham and any other that enter the boxing ring. read more

I have mixed feelings about this place! On the one hand I quite enjoy the food but on the other hand I don't think it's that good for some reason... or maybe just not up to the hype everybody usually makes it out to be. But I do have to say my experiences here were not bad. There are definitely some hit or misses on the menu though. Their truffle siu mai for example is a miss. It's pretty bland every time I've had it, doesn't taste like much. Their smoked black cod is amazing and so is the Australian lobster, truffle and egg whites dish. Those two I highly recommend. Their Peking duck is pretty good too and head up, you need to pre order if in advance. All in all, an enjoyable experience whether for a quick lunch or dinner time. read more

Good food, nicely decorated. Reservations are recommended. The service was great, as you should expect based on the prices.

Came here thinking it was authentic Chinese food. It's not. If you're looking for modern fusion food then this is a good place.

You need to try their after dinner coffee. Pretty fun to watch. Good place to hangout or celebrate for special occasions :) read more

Always heard good things about it and I finally decided to try it on Sunday afternoon. When we arrived we were greeted promptly and it wasn't too busy. We were seated right away. This is definitely not your typical Chinese restaurant. Very upscale. We ordered hot& sour soup dumplings, truffle Siu mai, bbq pork bun, bbq porn rice rolls, beef rice noodles & mango, coconut rolls for two people. My favourite was the hot & sour soup dumplings so flavourful and different! Everything was really good and not greasy like other dim sum places . Also they have table side mimosas made from fresh squeezed orange juice!! Definitely recommend that! This place is pricey, not somewhere you would come every weekend for dim sum but a great place for something special ! read more

When friends come to town, if you only had one night to take them to dinner, Mott 32 is THE PLACE! Sexy, elegant, creative, original ambiance and cuisine. There's Asian food, and then there's Mott 32! An entirely different and superior, experience. We eat here at least every other week when we are staying in Vancouver over the summers. Try the cucumber salad, the Pekin Duck, and the flat noodles with beef. Excellent, helpful, an attentive staff. And as I can personally attest, a great place to have a birthday party in their private room. read more

So AMAZING! We are visiting Vancouver so we wanted to really do it up. We ordered the duck and OMG it was so good! We also had used the meat they had left over after the main to have it make duck fried rice, if you order the duck do that! You won't regret it. We also ordered a few other dishes for the table and everything was spot on! The food was amazing but the main reason I am here writing this review is the service. If you find your table with Bobby as your server, know you are in for a great time! He was a joy to have, knowledgeable about the menu and gave amazing recommendations. You never went without because he was always there to get you what you needed.You also never felt overcrowded because his presence was always welcome! I have to say I think he was the best server I have had in quite some time! He sets the standard for service, so if anyone finds themselves going to this place try to get Bobby and brace yourself for a great experience! read more

Everything I had was very good, but boy the prices take your appetite away!!! Braised eggplants for $66... It's hard to argue that the price quality is good, even though the quality is superb. Service was friendly and competent. Ambience was also very pleasant. read more

One of the most elegant Chinese restaurants bridging tradition and modernism, weaved in with quality everywhere. Can't recall the last time dining at the same restaurant in less than 24 hours, luck pushed me to visit this place for dinner and than lunch, two different but equally great experiences. The food is outstanding, the dim sum: spicy soup dumpling and the shrimp crispy 腸粉(rice noodle roll) competes for top places;while the flaky Wagyu puff pastry and "scotch egg" siu mai demonstrates incredible precision. Regrettably we did not have enough people to split the Peking duck carved table side. The egg tart was not the absolute best but a great ending to the meal. The beverage elevated the experience with great selection from around the world: Canada, US, France, Italy, Southern Hemisphere including Penfolds, etc. Great tea selection on top of creative cocktails. All these boxed in beautifully decorated dining environment, high touch without an air of arrogance. Great sound proofing even amidst of a somewhat busy service, which is attentive but never rushing. I have high praises for this place because the restaurant has mastered the art of listening. While the GM secretly thinks the incredibly diverse wait staff is not as well versed on the wine, the somm on the floor is there to ensure your beverage of choice will match well with the experience! #cheers read more

At first I was skeptical about the establishment especially for the price. But it didn't deter me from trying and tasting it for myself, it was definitely worth the experience. We went in for dinner and my first impression for the location and decoration was spectacular with my only concern that it lacks lighting for me which made it difficult to take quality pictures. The customer service was excellent, he made recommendations, refilled my tea very knowledgeable of the menu. We ordered the Apple Wood Roasted Peking Duck, Black Truffle Siu Mai, and Braised Eggplant. All of those dishes are highly recommended and you can taste the difference when quality ingredients are used. It also well seasoned and didn't numb my lips which is great. These dishes are meant for sharing, but it was a bit too much for the 2 of us, so a dish for 3 with small appetites is enough. I also ordered the Tie Guan Yin House Tea and it was excellent, it had a floral aroma a taste like green tea. I would definitely come back for more when my wallet gets thicker again. read more

Horrible dining experience -We ordered the smoked black cod and it tasted like a cigar The chicken with chillies dish was 50$ we got mostly chilly peppers than chicken -we ordered the lobster and crab prawn it was quite lack lustre -we ordered a noodle dish which they did not bring out even once we had eaten all the items that came out first. -all bbq items were sold out -king prawn dish had far too many black peppercorns it ruined the dish We paid and left without receiving our noodle dish because I was so turned off by the experience. One of the worst "fine dining" experiences I've. Sucks to because I went for my birthday. Stuck with almost a 400$ bill. Wasn't even full when I left read more

Good food but the portion is way too small especially when compared to before. I understand there's inflation but prices have gone up considerably and more importantly portions have reduced 25-50%. Overall the value is not there for what it is. read more

Mott's food is lovely. Although expensive the restaurant lives up to its reputation and price tag with a diverse menu that brings the modern Chinese kitchen to the west coast with distinction and flavor. Likewise, the wine menu is varied and there is plenty of choice beyond the menu in the cellar which can be explored with resident sommelier. The ambience and decor is tasteful and warm. Unfortunately, Mott has a rodent problem in the dining room (and likely in the kitchen as well. Although the latter cannot be definitively determined the open style kitchen to dining room makes this rather likely. The staff (very much aware of the Situation) has decided that this is the status quo for restaurants in Vancouver. The suggestion is that the rodents stem from the empty Trump hotel next door (which is being renovated). In any case not a pleasant experience especially when you're having a $500 meal at supposedly one of the better restaurants in town. The staffs ambivalence to the issue is disconcerting. Although apparently the health inspector is aware and the staff claims the health inspector has a laissez faire approach to rodents. read more

I was in Vancouver for my birthday and the restaurant was connected to our hotel. We ordered the Peking Duck, Scallop Shrimp Beetroot dumplings, soup dumplings and some mocktails. The duck was crispy and was a lot of meat for 3 people. I loved the shrimp dumplings. They were my favorite. They gave me the birthday lotus buns at the end. Our waitress was wonderful and attentive. A very elegant place that still has a fun vibe. I would definitely come back. I love Vancouver and the people. read more

We absolutely loved Mott 32. The food was delicious! We tried a little of everything, including some dim sum, fried rice, sweet sour pork, duck salad, and dessert. All of it was tasty. The cocktails were just as good. I recommend the Old Fashion. Plus, the ambiance was great. Best of all was the service, Leann provided great service and recommendations when choosing our dishes. When I return to Vancouver I will definitely be dining here again. read more

Decided to give Mott 32 a try with some friends that were visiting from Hong Kong. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and not particularly busy, there are about as many staff as there are diners. I've been told it's usually like this, but I'm not surprised given the prices. It's hard to decide what to order, the menu has a pretty wide variety and the prices make you want to choose carefully. We started with the pork belly salad roll ($18) which was presented beautifully but tasted pretty average. This dish felt more like Shanghainese cuisine than Cantonese. We then moved on to the lettuce wraps, or as Mott likes to call it "stir fried cube AAA Prime Canadian tenderloin, lettuce cup, mustard oil". The name is pretentious and the mustard oil is going to make it or break it for you. It's incredibly overpowering and has a horseradish/wasabi-like effect. Unfortunately this dish didn't work for me but I can see others enjoying it. Of all the dishes, this one perhaps swayed away from traditional Cantonese cuisine the most. We ordered some vegetable dishes which were incredibly average. You can get the same taste from at least 20 other restaurants in the lower mainland, and Mott 32 does nothing to stand out in this regard. I can respect a chef that takes chances and fails but there's no effort here with dishes like the wok fried cauliflower. Things turned around a bit with the crispy pumpkin prawns which were creative and tasty. But at $34 for a small plate, it ought to be amazing. The highlight should've been the Peking Duck which you have to order a day in advance. They carve it next to your table and the overall presentation is excellent. The pancakes are also beautifully done and very thin. Unfortunately they're also quite skimpy on those pancakes and only give you about half as many as you'd expect for the portion of duck. Not sure why they're so greedy with one of the cheapest things to make cost-wise, especially when we're paying a small fortune for this duck. The first cut of the Peking duck is the crispy skin, unfortunately this just tasted like lard city and a heart attack waiting to happen. The rest of the duck was good but not necessarily better than any of the top tier chinese restaurants in town. The standards in Vancouver/Richmond are high and what might fly in New York doesn't impress anyone here, despite the fancy table-side antics. The sweet and sour pork was a dish that really exemplified what I wanted to see in Mott 32. A fresh and lighter take on a traditional and popular dish with a bit of creativity. Not pretentious, just delicious. Unfortunately the other dishes didn't follow suit. Our chicken with shallots and black bean sauce was heavy handed and very salty. The chili duck (2nd course of our Peking duck) was the same, chewy and heavy handed. I'm not sure which was more disappointing. We didn't bother with dessert as we weren't impressed with what we had up to that point. I might've liked it but I'll never know as I likely won't be back for more of Mott 32. The food service between dishes was very slow, and the servers in general were not attentive and didn't clear plates in a timely fashion. Lots of dirty and finished dishes just sitting on our Lazy Susan which was so hard to turn. Not acceptable when charging these kinds of prices. I came in with concerns that they would make highfalutin variants of the dishes I grew up eating, with way too many weird flavours and ingredients. For the most part though, I'm glad they kept it reasonably traditional but with a more fine dining oriented presentation. Unfortunately the food just didn't wow us, and I doubt any seasoned Chinese diners ever leave Mott 32 thinking it's the best Chinese food they've ever had. That's the kind of experience we expect for these prices, and I just hope they're aware of that. read more

Breakfast at Mott 32, what is all the hype? Very classy-ish old style Shanghai 1940s ish with bird cage included as part of their ambiance and decor. Old music playing in the background. It makes me sleepy despite having slept soundly the night before. Served with mostly Asian staff from waiter to kitchen staff, it definitely has a nice sparkle and detail to it. The design on their seating arrangement is different from Asian type restaurants. Lots of lighting and attentiveness to detail as well as comfort for their customers. Food is alright. From pastries, hot congee with its appropriate condiments, international western buffet selection and fresh dimsum made to order. The iberico pork chang fen was delightful but the Mott 32 in Hong Kong taste better. Coffee is bleh. Juice is not as fresh. Room service dining is way better than eating in here. What stands out in this type of establishment is their service. Their staff will attend to your every need at your beck and call. I raised my hand up more times than I can remember and kudos to attending to me without complaint. This made me give them an extra star. read more

Absolutely stunning food The restaurant itself is very smart as are the waiters and waitresses who are very attentive and friendly. The food itself surpasses anything we have ever tasted. Our starters, 'shredded Peking duck' and 'hot & sour soup' set the tone for what can only be described as heaven on a plate. The 'Black Cod' and 'Beef Noodles' were simply out of this world in terms of both texture and taste and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Our visit to Mott 32 can only be described as a wonderful experience. read more

I've always been a very loyal customer of Kirin but when I knew about Mott32 coming to Vancouver, it is a MUST to check this out and hope that's it is as good as the one in Hong Kong!

After reading some of the reviews I've came with a low expectation on superb fine dining and had an idea of which dishes I'd like to try. But some errors still managed to slip through. First off, pricing issues. Typically if I see a price on the menu I'm expected to see that the price on my bill. Unfortunately, that's not the case here. One item was priced higher on my bill and one was priced lower so I guess that balances out. Also their online menu is a bit different from their paper menu but I still managed to order the forbidden rose (from online menu no price) and was charged $20. This price tag is higher than any other cocktail that was listed on the menu. Not to say they brought out a non-alcoholic drink for me at first. Thank God I instagram enough to know how my drink looks like. Our server was nice about it though. She immediately requested the bartender to remake my drink. Another thing I expected from a high-end restaurant like this was the finesse and execution of each dish. The dim sum items could look better and I expected mains to come out after appetizers and not in random order like a typical 'chinese' restaurant. I pre-ordered the bbq pork a day ahead and it came out once we sat down. I didn't even order anything from the menu as yet. Our drinks didn't even come out. Of course, then we'd have to sample at least one slice before it got cold. Anyways, -BBQ pork (4/5): Most expensive and tender char siu (bbq pork) I've ever eaten. You can tell the quality of the meat used was really good. It was so moist and the flavour was spot on. It was thinly sliced so each bite was perfect. For the price paid this is what I expected. -Truffle quail egg siu mai (3.5/5): I'm assuming this is the scotch egg version in siu mai form. The egg yolk was still runny and the truffle on top add fragrance to the siu mai however it didn't look pretty. Because the meat had to enclose around the egg, it was thicker and had to be cooked longer. -Hot & Sour Soup Dumpling (4/5):The way the soup dumpling was served was unique but the soup dumpling itself was not delicately made and lack the finesse of fine dining dishes. The taste on the other hand wins it for me. I love spicy food and this had a bit of heat to it due to the hot & sour soup in the dumpling. I was sold. -Spring rolls with duck (3.5/5): Our server recommended this over the duck salad as I wanted to try some duck since we knew it would have been a waste to order a full duck for $90. Unfortunately as good as the spring rolls tasted, I couldn't really taste duck even though I see some duck in each spring roll. -Short Ribs Three ways (3/5): This massive dish is a meal for the hungry. Though it said three ways, I didn't quite see three. It was more like two. Again, you can taste the quality of the meat use however it was so bland. So bland. I had to request for extra sauce and it came out really salty and I didn't use it. -Soy sauce ice cream (4/5): Who would have thought soy sauce ice cream would work. I also thought there would be little to no soy taste like the sriracha ice cream i tried elsewhere. But first scoop and you're hit with soy sauce and then the creaminess of the ice cream mellows it out. It's also paired with some white chocolate bavarois and strawberries. -Green tea cheese (3/5): A bit overrated as everyone seems to say it tastes amazing. I find it too heavy for a deconstructed cheesecake. I was expecting a light airy mousse made with cream cheese and somehow the ratio of the greentea and cream cheese didn't balance very well. Kind of threw this dish off. On the side note: I was impressed by the ventilation they had installed. Despite the open kitchen and sitting so close with my chefs cooking with the woks for hours I did not smell anything. I also enjoyed watching them cook as did other guests. read more

A quail egg that's boiled where the yolk is still runny.... imagine bitting down a truffle siu mai and having yolk oozing out?!? Orgasmic Lobster fried rice was good as well ( not in photo) Pickled cucumber was good Green tea cheese was awesome! Hot sour soup was not bad I prefer the ones in the whole in the wall restaurant.

The food and service were both good. However given the price I had to knock off a star. My friend and I shared the cold chicken with chilies, duck spring rolls, green beans with wagyu beef and the king prawns with peppercorns. The dishes were all good but none were so unique and delicious that I'd make a second trip for them. The prawns were the stand out dish of the four. Because it was just the two of us the portions were fine but if you were in a group they are small (the server even warned us that they were small). We each had a cocktail and the bill was around $150 so about double what you'd pay at another Chinese restaurant. The plus about here though is the food was not greasy and I didn't feel like I needed a nap which happens to me at other Chinese restaurants. read more

Mott 32 - Lenin's Kisses cocktail (the flower is edible:)) - Chinese Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Came because of reviews on Yelp during a stopover in Vancouver. It was a really good surprise. Our waiter Grey was super and helped us navigated the menu. I got a Silk Road Sangria (white wine, white port, Remy Brandy, apricot, mango) which was delicious, and put the fire out (see chicken entree). Started with Hot Sour Soup dumplings and crispy roasted pork belly. The dumplings were a great surprise. Maybe everybody knows this, but the soup was inside the dumplings. Awesome. The crispy roasted pork belly was just OK. Crispy on one side and warm but not hot. Probably wouldn't order again. We then had the Signature smoke black cod. Wonderful presentation, but the cod was a little fishy for my taste. Our next course was chicken with Szechuan chilis. This was wonderful, but there was probably 1/4 cup of chopped dried peppers. The ginger/garlic/ peppers really made this dish a standout. Note, I pushed a lot (most) of the peppers to the side. We closed with another surprise, Soy Sauce Ice Cream. It seemed like a salty caramel base, with a soy sauce finish. You have to try this dessert. I've never seen it before read more

If you notice, majority of the five star ratings are Americans. Ha! For someone who's local. this restaurant is not meant for locals, it's for tourist or business professionals with deep expense pocket and it's for those who doesn't like to venture outside of their hotel or 10 km from their guest room. For sure, service is impeccable, but for a local, it's "you eat and get out" from any Chinese Restaurant. I still prefer Kirin Seafood Restaurant. When it comes to Chinese Food, there are lots of places to eat in Vancouver and Richmond. The service is very good, the food is also good, but for the price...

I had a pleasant experience at Mott 32. Although located at Trump Tower, I decided to give it a try considering it is so famous in China. My first impression of the restaurant was that their decor was very modern and chic, there was a full view of the kitchen and I could see the chefs preparing for dinner service. Service is a full 10 stars for me, they couldn't have been more kind and approachable. They were all willing to help and answer any questions you had. I was led to a private room at the back of the restaurant and was immediately greeted by a waiter who sat us down and helped us with any questions we had about their menu. The their menu included a varied range of meat, seafood, rice, noodles, and other dishes. It was very simplistic, however we took awhile deciding which dishes we would like to try. We definitely had to try the Apple Wood Roasted 42 Days Peking Duck (where we had to order one day in advance which my uncle did). A professional chef came in to slice the duck in front of us and place it to our table. The flour wrap was very thin and the hoisin sauce was great as well. However I feel the duck was mediocre and had no difference to the ones i've tried elsewhere. We got this dish in a lettuce wrap too, tasted good, but i've had better. We also had the Barbecue Pluma Iberico Pork, which is limited and there were only two portions left but we only ordered one of them. Many people over exaggerate and say "the fat melted in my mouth", but this dish, it really does melt in your mouth. It was the best BBQ pork i've had. The meat was so tender and the glaze was really nice. We ordered 2 portions of the Hot & Sour Iberico Pork Shanghainese Soup Dumplings. I recommend this dish to people who love spicy because it had a kick to it. This was my favourite dish of the night. Another dish that I enjoyed is the Black Angus Beef Short Rib cooked 3 times, one half baked and another seared. It was so delicious and I felt that this dish was the most worth it at is price for $40. I ordered the Sweet and Sour Pork with Dragon Fruit because the waiter recommended that we try this dish. It was the best Sweet and Sour dish i've tried so far in my life. The batter on the pork was thin but still had a crunch to it and it was so tender. We ordered one rice dish and one noodle dish. Wok Fried Flat Rice Noodles with US Black Angus Beef, and the Fried Rice with Crabmeat, Conpoy and Egg White with Flying Fish Roe. These two dishes weren't my favourite but still tasted really good. The dessert of the night was the Deconstructed Green Tea Cheesecake with Lime Sorbet. It had a strong matcha flavour and the way it was presented was beautiful. What was really cute was that instead of giving you pre packaged hand towels, they had a little tablet in a small dish and they poured hot water on it and it blossomed to a hand towel. It was so cute and really "chic" Over the total bill of everything including tip amounted to $460, which isn't that bad for a restaurant like this and feeding 6 people. I will probably only come here on special occasions because of how pricey this place is. However, I totally recommend this place for date night or just going out with family. read more
