  • Good for groups
The surreal atmosphere of this awe-inspiring restaurant in the Meatpacking district of Manhattan
combines the serenity of Asia with the flamboyance of 16th century Paris. The menu features fanciful interpretations of Chinese dishes and delights even the most discriminating palates.

    Server (miguel)forgot to put through parts of our order noticeably drinks. Food was below par compared to some hole in the wall Asian eateries. Hosts at the front desk were so indifferent to our presence it was actually quite funny and the staff at the bar much like the hosts made you feel invisible. Overall it was pretty disappointing, coming from Vancouver which is quite possibly the Mecca for Asian food in North America but by no means a world class city like NYC; the food here by comparison was pretty poor. Seasoning was unbalanced and each dish was just flat, needing something more or something less. Didn’t hit the spot. At the end of the meal there was a situation to find the Amex I’d used to pay, sad. Overall not worth the money.

    I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. The food was absolutely terrible – it lacked flavor although seemed well prepared. On top of that, the noise level was unbearable, making it impossible to have a conversation. The overall atmosphere was chaotic and unpleasant, unless you are lucky and the table is on the main characteristic dining room. I would not recommend this place.There are far better options.

    Great place. Was a bit disappointed with the lobster fried rice but other than that everything else was great. Our waiter was amazing.
