Reviews
- pearl_lynxOrdered a few of their signature dishes. The braised pork belly was so tender and flavorful, sauce was rich and went super well with rice. The salt-field shrimp balls had really fresh, bouncy shrimp, just the right amount of wine flavor, and the truffle celery on the side cut through the richness nicely. Our server was super friendly and gave some good recommendations when we were ordering, plus the food came out pretty fast. The vibe was quiet and cozy, perfect for hanging out with friends. They were also really thoughtful with my kid and brought out an extra steamed egg for him. Overall a solid experience, didn't take forever to eat and get on with our day.
