I would just like to start out by saying the customer service was OUTSTANDING! And once I received my food the food was so so delicious, I mean everything from the crab to the garlic noodles. Usually I don’t care for thick noodles but theses were amazing! The shrimp was great and everything was delicious, I definitely recommend this restaurant from my house to the White House!

I heard about this place years and years ago prior to relocating from California and this was my first time in. Very hospitable and welcoming! We to wait a little bit for a table (less than an hour), and the hostess allowed two women that arrived after us to be seated right away but this was rectified rather quickly in spite of the given constraints. The staff truly does care about your experience. Food is definitely on the pricier side but the portions are generous. I had the lobster tail and prawns over garlic noodles and had enough to take home for later. If you want a drink, the bar does operate separately so as to expect two separate checks, but the bartender was very attentive and friendly and does what needs to be done, respectfully. If you’re visiting the Bay Area, do yourself a favor and visit this spot!

Such a cute spot, with a nice vibe!!! The food was absolutely amazing. Seasoned to perfection. The music was good and the drinks were even better. We got the 3 way and the fried oysters were probably the best I've ever had. Definitely recommend and will be back before I catch my flight home.

The food was just ridiculous (incredible). We almost had to take a nap before driving home ??! Looking forward to the next
