If you are the type of person that enjoys your peace when eating, this isn’t the place for you. The noise level was extremely high. The food was mediocre at the price point it was placed. $45 for a shrimp lo mein with taste value was less than the local Chinese restaurant, I pass. The service on the other hand was very good with attentive waiters. If you asked me would I return? No. I will say overall you are paying for the restaurant’s popularity. Keep your money in your wallet.

It was a great dining experience. My waiter was attentive but not overboard. The food came out almost immediately and everything was delicious especially the blueberry mojito. Definitely will go back.
