| - We had a wonderful experience. We had an RSVP and had zero wait. We had a group of 10 led by a VIP that secured us a nice round table. The wise and skilled waiter (Jake) sagely suggested that we set an approximate cost per person of around $70 or so (not including drinks) and he bring out multiple entrees and serve family style. We had a few vegetarians in the group.
This plan worked very very well. The vegetarian dishes (kung pao tofu, spring rolls, vegetable dumplings, sake-flavored mushrooms) were all quite good. The Sea Bass skewers were out of this world. Also quite good were the lobster dumplings. Service was excellent at all times, though this might have been influenced by a VIP in our group. B/c said VIP among other stuff we were treated to sushi, some apps and a dessert platter with a giant fortune cookie stuffed with yum, ice cream, apple dumplings, pocky, and stuff similar to cannolis. The dessert was good, but definitely not the best stuff that this place has. If you are looking to save money, skip dessert here.
Perhaps our experience was not normal b/c the VIP on board, however the food, ambiance as well as the great wine/liquor menu justify a splurge here. If your waiter is half as good as Jake, you will be 100% satisfied.
