The first thing I should say is the food is fire. It's real really good. And it tastes pretty authentic Chinese from what we could tell. We got the spicy beef noodle soup, xiao long bao, and and eggplant stir fry. It was all perfect. No notes. My favorite was the noodle soup--the broth was delicious, the noodles were thick and chewy, and it was nice and traditionally simple.
But we were honestly shocked because the vibes of the place do not scream "authentic and delicious Chinese food." It's heavily westernized with trap music blasting, colored lights flashing, and a bar taking up one of the walls. As my bf put, it felt like eating dinner in a club. It was off putting eating with Megan Thee Stallion blasting ngl. There were also large screens playing various sports game. It was like being at a restaurant, sports bar, club, Chinese place all at once.
The service wasn't too bad, but we did order beers which they forgot about (and eventually canceled).
Overall, the food is great but the vibes need work. read more
