Only 6:00 or after 9:30 reservation could be made. I get it, called less than a week before I went. Arrived 6:30 and told I had to finish by 8:30 as the table was rebooked. Food...great amuse followed by interesting sounding apps. Peeky toe dumplings were the best but good thing the crab was great product. The dish was really just crab wrapped in wanton wrappers (I expected better). Entrees equally disappointing. The filet perfectly cooked and great beef, but boring! The arctic char had fishy odor and halibut, interesting looking, tasted flat (foam = bad). Caramel is a $9 bowl of diced bananas under a tablespoon of whipped cream and some float thing with donuts resembled neither a float or an edible donut. To add insult to injury, we left at 9:00P and the place was only half full...good thing they told us they rebooked our table.
Pros: Decor, Drink List, Scene
