I came into the Duck and Dumpling on a hopping Saturday night with several friends. We didn't have a reservation so we waited at the bar for a table. The decor is great, lots of style, very hip. I felt like I was in a total urban setting. The red lights over the bar are cool. The bar staff was friendly and informative, with many drink specials to choose from. It was clear they enjoyed being there. I looked over a menu as we waited. It was so interesting-sounding. We got to the table, a little crowded, but, hey, it's a bistro. Our server was wonderful. On a busy night, she still had time to chat us up and make friends. More features. The homemade dumplings are the best. I had roast duck with a cherry sauce. The others had filet, duck soup, and ginger lamb. We had to share because it was all so good. The chef even came by our table to check on us. I love that. We skipped dessert, but the menu looked tempting. Thank goodness for a staff that cares!
Pros: Busy and fun atmosphere, service
Cons: none this time
