    Got sat in side dining room right next to a service station at the bar, which was not a good place to sit. Waiter didn’t offer to change for clean plates until almost the end of the meal. Ask to be in the main dining room if at all possible.

    To be fair, we went to this restaurant on Christmas Day (reservations required!!). It was a bit of a madhouse. The restaurant did their very best to manage the crowd. Our server was very sweet and helpful (I’m gluten free). However, when we were seated at 2:20 pm we were told it was last call for the kitchen. Our reservation was for 2 pm. A bad start. Then the bar closed half way through our meal, so no more drinks. The dim sum was excellent but incredibly overpriced. Overall, nice place, nice hard working people, but vibe was hurried and hassled… just not worth the price.

    The timing of the food was off, we ordered the harborview beef at the same time as our other dishes, yet we never received it. We checked in on the status of the beef dish twice during the meal and at the last check in, when we had finished our food our server said it was still 10 minutes away from being done. Therefore, we had to cancel the dish from our order since we were already done with our meal.

    The host need more training for her job. If we book for 7 people and 6 of us already arrived, the host should let us sit at the table and start ordering. The host kept telling us we need all party to be seated.

    The confusion over which table to sit us was ridiculous, awkward and embarrassing. The food we ordered was okay but not great except for the Peking duck.

    This is the place I will not recommend. The waitress has no patience and push us to order. And she just cannot wait us to finish the food , like push us to leave, Omg, we just ate less than an hour. Food and service with its price is not equivalent. Overall experience is so terrible!

    Went for Xmas lunch, and it was as efficient and tasty as usual. The only caveat was an item that was ordered, never delivered, but we were still charged for it. After speaking to the waiter, he rectified the situation. Things like that shouldn't happen, and in particular, if we hadn't double checked the bill, we'd been charged for something that we never received. But, the food and ambiance are still extremely high end.
