The duck and fried rice is very good. But the other stuff like the spring roll, popcorn shrimp and cavatelli are not really worth going back for.

Always outstanding. It’s great for vegetarians and meat lovers. The jeweled rice is not to be missed, an absolute delight. The way each dish was layered in flavor is just masterful and truly difficult to replicate. On the pricier side, it is a treat and perfect for special occassions.
