Reviews
- scarlet_ficusThis is my fourth time here and I always come for my birthday every year. The vibe has always been nice and the service is super attentive. This time I got the marinated white water fish and the seven-flavor rice cake with shrimp, the fish was so tender, the rice cakes were fried perfectly soft and chewy, and the shrimp was really fresh. Also tried the cheesy sweet potato and taro for the first time, didn't expect a savory one to taste this good. The set menu is pretty well put together and totally worth the price, and I'm obsessed with their signature smoked fish, crispy and super flavorful. Been here a few times before, the main dining room was a bit noisy this time, but honestly still a great experience overall.
