I'm shocked at how wonderful this restaurant is. My fam made me detour all the way here from NYC to…read moreRhode Island. It makes sense now. What an amazing canto spot and what's even better is that it's 8 mins away from Mohegan sun. There was no host for a while when we entered, we were kind of lost without any guidance. We helped ourselves and just walked straight to the back and a waiter finally spotted us and sat us down. We came on a Monday so sadly because the sushi chef was not in, there was no sushi for the day. Everything we ordered was yum and the price was good too. For $100, a party of 6 and a baby, we got to try every thing and we were so satisfied. The best dish was the pineapple buns, I still yearn for those to this day. Their baked roast pork bun was good too. I definitely want to visit soon, hopefully will make my friend drive to Mohegan sun so I can enjoy this restaurant again. So much more worth it to eat here than eat at Mohegan. I need those pineapple buns...... addicted!!! CANT WAIT

I love having dim sum here! Service is great and food is so delicious…read more Loveeeeeee their chicken feet in black bean sauce. Tripe with scallions and ginger. These two dishes are must have dim sum items and we ordered two of each! Scallion pancakes were delicious. Sui Mai were generous portions! I had to cut it in thirds to eat it; definitely not a one biter. Chinese broccoli in oyster sauce is my favorite vegetable item. These two dishes stuffed eggplant and steam rolls were good too. I could eat this every single day! Ambiance is nice. Clean restaurant. I can't wait to go back!

They no longer have a separate vegetarian section on the menu however, I was able to ask the weight staff which soups could be vegetarian. I was told all of the soups except two of them can be made vegetarian. I asked for mild however this was extremely spicy for me. Next time I will say no spice and ask for the chilies on the side. I thought it was flavorful and very good. I will continue to order takeout or delivery and come again.

We were in town for a few days and wanted to find a great cocktail bar -- well, we found it…read more The ambiance was exactly what we were hoping for: stylish, welcoming, and relaxed without trying too hard. They don't really have signage, so keep an eye out -- it's next to a Thai restaurant and definitely worth finding. Although we didn't eat, the food coming out of the kitchen looked incredible. The cocktails, however, completely stole the show. Every drink was thoughtfully crafted, and the espresso martini was especially impressive. What really made the experience stand out were the bartenders. Friendly, welcoming, and genuinely engaging -- exactly what you hope for when you're visiting a new town and looking for a place to unwind. Can't wait to come back next time we're in town.

We came on a Sunday evening by for dinner. It was only 2 of us and it was our first time. We put…read morethe GPS and although it said we arrived we were confused. There is no sign at all. The windows are tinted and covered with curtains so you would t know you really arrived. When we asked why they have no sign the answer was they like it that way and will not have a sign. They share the parking lot with Jasmine Thai. When we walked in I have to say the decor is gorgeous. I love the boutique look to it and beautiful bar with black background. The hallway to bathrooms is beautiful including the bathroom. There were 2 bartenders. One of them came to our table to take our order. Tables are low coffe table styles with velvet pink accent chairs. On the other side by the stage they had some regular wood high tops as well. The ceiling was highly black with low dimmed yellow lights. I have to say, it was very hard to read the menu and had to use my phone flashlight. Other than that it looked nice. The place was feeezing. There were man at the bar with their coats on. I took mine off but had to put it back. It was the one thing I definitely didn't like about this place. If I return it will be in the summer. Now let's talk food. The food looked great and tasted very good. I love their entire menu. It was tough to decide. We tried the spring rolls; tuna tacos and Shrimp Himmapan. For dessert we had the Pistachios ricotta cake. The description given by the waitress was not correct but it was good. I would call this a cake. It was more like a cheesecake type dessert. But flavor wise was great. We will come back with friends once the weather is better. Don't want to risk being so cold like that again.

Like you literally cannot beat $16 for a three sushi roll lunch, or for hibachi bento, or what amounts to $10 Martinis (Buy 1 get 1 at half price) these days. Secondly the head bartender is an absolute GOAT professional and will tailor cocktails to your preferences and tastes. I'm a gin/vodka drinker but like things spicy. Guy had cinnamon and chili infused syrup on hand and made me the best mango-habanero-basil!!! Tom Collins I've ever had. My wife had their Koichi martini and loved it so much that she raved about it for half an hour on the way home. Going to ask for the recipe the next time we stop in. Also do NOT and I repeat DO NOT sleep on the duck sliders. Holy crap!! Absolutely amazing and juicy. Right in Michelin tier in and of themselves. Hidden gem is what this place is. I'm surprised it doesn't require a knock knock password to get in.

One of my favorite roll is the Fancy Roll. Simple and crunchy. There is also option of hibachi, noodles and Chinese dishes for the friends and family that doesn't like raw fish. Great place to come by and sit down for lunch or dinner.
