Reviews
- toothy_morning_gloryCame here with my girlfriend last weekend after walking around Hongqiao Tiandi, and we just happened to stumble on this place. Super glad we did because the decor was really cool — lots of red everywhere, very festive, tons of great spots for photos. The Peking duck is carved tableside by the chef, and the skin was so crispy it basically melted in your mouth. The thin pancakes and sweet sauce were the perfect combo. The staff was honestly amazing too — they walked us through the menu and even brought out some little extra dim sum-style bites for us on the house. Whole meal felt super relaxed, great vibe for a date. Definitely coming back!
