SLOAN was the best bartender, our drinks were phenomenal. She was professional and chill. Our food was probably the best thing that has happened to our taste buds in a long time. That vegetable lo mein was out of this world. 1,000% will be back again and recommend to friends.

Pretty cool spot. Food was tasty. Pay for parking

Nice place we enjoyed our meal service was good

Just moved to Detroit, I wanted to go here a few weeks ago but got busy and so I was super excited to go yesterday and finally be able to try it. When I got there, I sat at the bar. I immediately felt like there wasn’t a sense of urgency to the customer here, after I finally placed my order, the entree food came out extremely fast, I was impressed but at the same time it seemed too quick. The speed did not make me feel like I was in an upscale restaurant providing fresh food. The rice tasted old and had some burnt parts. When the crab rangoons I ordered for an appetizer finally came out, 10-15 minutes later, I ate one and the outside was warm but the inside was cold. I thought maybe it was just that one, so I ate a second one and it was still cold on the inside, seemed like it was frozen prior to the fryer. I told my bartender and she said she would get me new ones, but seemed quite annoyed at the same time. I continued to eat my food thinking the new ones would be out fairly quickly, but time kept passing and I was trying to eat slower so I could save room for crab rangoons but they took about 20 minutes to finally get to me and when they did, they were burnt. Another five-ish minutes later I got three more crab rangoons ? Which I was confused about and I was assuming they were the original three I gave back. I boxed my food up and took it home, frustrated with the whole ordeal, and when I went to heat it back up today I noticed that three of the crab rangoons they gave me as my replacements didn’t even have any filling in them… no wonder they burnt.. the food was alright but extremely underwhelming for what I was expecting, this was 150% not worth paying $50 for one person for an app, entree, and one drink.I will say that the drink the bartender made was amazing, but her service skills lacked and she seemed to be not moving very quick, even my drink took forever to get. In addition to my food experience, I noticed one of the workers, who I assumed was a manager, just leaning on the bar on her phone, during which time I saw people waiting to be seated for what I think was too long to wait. The reason why I think she was a manager is because she was on a laptop at one point. Employees leaning at the side of the bar seemed to be a trend here.Needless to say, I was super disappointed and I won’t be going back. /:

Food was disappointing for the chicken fried rice. What was shown on the internet was not what was served. The chicken was cut in pieces with the rice and not fried and placed on top as in the internet pic. Rice as can be seen was mushy. Plus place was not full--4 people in party-- and we elderly people in mud 60s were forced to eat at the bar in incompftorable chairs. I watched 3 empty tables of 4 that people never sat at the whole time we were there. And once again the place was not busy. This was unacceptable to me. The female bartender was nice but lacked did not give the best customer service for us sitting there but ok since she was making drinks and freeze similes. I was highly disappointed since this place is suppose to be the best chineese. Customer service definitely lacked in how we were treated.

Fantastic experience all around! Our cocktails were great and presented well, every bit of food ordered was flavorful and delicious and Amber gave us top notch service. The sweet and sour chicken may be my favorite ever and the lo mein will be craved. Oh and the Oreo stuffed donuts were drool worthy! We had a great time, left stuffed and will definitely be going back!!!!

My second time in this place and the service and food was very poor both times, very disappointing. I will never recommend and will discourage anyone wanting to try this place.

Nice dining experience. Top notch drinks and food was fabulous. The mushroom dumblings were full of earthly flavor and the beef and broccoli was delicious. Sized for sharing.

Date night in the D. We arrived just after they opened. It quickly filled up w/a casual crowd. We ordered mushroom dumplings, and chicken & the cauliflower bao. All recommended. Even with the restaurant being full the service was great.

tasty food & drinks! decor/atmosphere is fun. service was quick & kind.
