Excellent date night. Food was tasty and inventive. The dumpling wrappers and the Malaysian noodles were a bit too thick and chewy for my taste but the flavors were amazing and really well blended. Excellent service. The best I’ve had in a really long time. Dishes were timed perfectly and they even gave us a complimentary anniversary dessert, which was our favorite dish of the night! Highly recommend.

My friend and K really enjoyed Linger! We ordered the pork belly bao, sweet fries, and charred edamame for a shared dinner. All of the food was packed with flavor and delicious. She ordered an old fashioned and I ordered the Thai tea cocktail. She enjoyed her old fashioned and said it was very orange forward, I was unfortunately not a fan of my cocktail but I think only because of personal preference. Overall I still would give it a 5/5. Ambiance was great but it was a tad loud. Looking forward to going back and trying more things!
