   It was a treat to have some authentic and not-often-found-here dishes such as porridge with pork and preserved eggs. We were surprised that there weren’t more people dining there, since the food was quite good. With the happy hour menu (unusual for a Saturday), it was great value too.

   The restaurant was a bit confusing at first as they combine different cuisines on their menu so you see some Chinese items, some Japanese, and even some Korean. As everything is prepared to order, it's important to get your order in at the beginning. We didn't get everything ordered in one shot so things took a bit longer. The food was well prepared and delivered with reasonable spacing. We'll definitely do better on a second visit now that we have an idea of how the system works and the portion sizes.

   First time here. Service was good and attentive. Food was tasty. Soup dumplings on point. Pot stickers very good. Congee was good needed a little more flavor so the white pepper they brought was a good balance. Meat skewers a bit chewy/fatty. But will be coming back to try the shabu shabu which looked good.

   The hostess/waitress explained our options carefully and made useful recommendations. Food arrived hot and reasonably fast, service was friendly and efficient. We greatly enjoyed the scallion pancakes that came folded over with a choice of savory stuffing -- we had beef, shrimp, spicy beef. Had never seen anything like it before, except perhaps a taco. The Xiao Long Bao, shanghai soup dumplings, were excellent. All in all, a varied menu, some originals, great execution and service.

   We are so happy this place is close to us. Our last 2 visits the food was outstanding compared to other skewer places. They have a wide variety of food and amazingly each item we ordered was tasty. We loved the minced beef porridge, the chicken thigh (soooo hard to find tender & juicy ones) and chicken skin skewers, har gaw (shrimp perfectly cooked and seasoned which is also rare), and I can't remember the other items we ordered but I know it was all enjoyable. The service was personable and efficient. We were late to our reservation and they seated us right away and we needed to attend a show nearby and made it on time because of their excellent service. We were surprised how reasonable the bill was because we find the food to be higher quality and cooked just right. We'll keep choosing this place over other skewer/dumpling places in the area.

   The beef tongue skewers are INCREDIBLE. We ordered more mid meal. The service was also lovely and you get to try a lot of different foods for a price that’s SO reasonable!

   Food was delicious, and service is great. It was not a typical grill place, where you cook your own meat, which for some reason was what I expected, but otherwise it was perfectly seasoned and had a great selection.

   Great local dumpling restaurant. Cannot miss on the menu but our favorites are chicken thigh with wasabi, pan fried dumpling and scallion pancakes. Fantastic vibe, friendly, kind staff.

   We really enjoying eating at this Redwood City downtown restaurant. We find the food to be really good and reasonably priced. The service is outstanding, they are very attentive but not overly intrusive. We eat here at least once a month. If you haven't tired, it you should really go.
