    Music is too loud, bao were too sweet and too salty in the same time. Pad thai was tasteless and bizarre (Never seen peppers in any i have ever eaten and the discovery wasn't great). The price is very high and quality is low unfortunately. The good point was the service, the waiters were nice and the wine was quite good.

    We had a less than enjoyable experience. Our 1st round of drinks came quickly and our first dishes came out pretty quickly too. The Korean wings were overcooked. The Bugogi was delicious. Then it got really busy & loud in there. We waited over an hour for the remainder of our food and it never came. Our waiter Jason never came to check and see what was going on. We finally asked and he said a runner had messed up and the kitchen would make it for us at that time. We opted to cancel the remainder and left. Would not go back again.

    The service was good and friendly, it is very decorative inside and the pottery is neat. The sushi was served fresh and fast. Hubby ordered the Pad Thai, but it had no peanuts nor taste like pad thai. I ordered the low mein and it was very sour with how much lime was used. Overall I would give a 3.

    Asian fusion cuisine that had no Asian flavor whatsoever. Almost everything was really bland. Nice place and nice people though.

    “Rock and Roll” sushi roll with tempura shrimp was disappointing. Shrimp were literally popcorn sized with the batter included. Taste was OK but I have had much better. The Shrimp Pad Thai tasted as if it had been soaked in vinegar. After having asked for tap water we were advised that it was not a good idea (presumably because it may not be safe) so we opted for a single bottle of “still” water (about 1 liter in size) which set us back $9 USD. Surprised that there are so many 5-star reviews.
