This was was extremely good. I was looking for Chinese food and figured I'd give this place a try. Certainly not your typical Chinese and more of an Asian-fusion. The meal was delicious. The desserts selection and dessert itself weren't all that great, but the entree certainly made up for that. Cool ambiance, tons of seating upstairs and down, with pool table upstairs. Hard to recognize from the street. In fact, looks like dive-hole from the street but certainly the opposite once you open their awesome door.

We had the “Heat Seeker Shrimp” and some “Crispy Green Beans”. The beans were perfectly prepared and full of flavour. The decor is very interesting and is worth checking out. It is related to the relative (grandfather I believe) who was a 5 star general. The real star was the shrimp. Absolutely the best part of the meal and my day. The texture of the shrimp was all one could ever want as well as the balanced amount of sweet to heat. This was unknown to me until now, but I will be back and I will share this experience with everyone.

Writing this while I’m sitting in the restaurant because it’s just that good! Our food came out unbelievably quickly, our drinks are being refilled before they’re even halfway gone, and everything is absolutely DELICIOUS. Our servers, Maximus and Ellie, have been fabulous and have made our night and my mom’s birthday ten times better. They’re the kind of people I’d love to be friends with, infectious energy and smiles all evening! Thanks guys ????

Second time visiting this place while in Raleigh and both times have been absolutely great. The duck fried rice that was featured when I was there was cooked to perfection and duck tender and delicious tasting as well. They have generous portions for the price which is a plus for me. The staff is also very attentive and friendly, I never found myself having to wonder where my waiter is. Will definitely be back next time I visit Raleigh.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit tonight. The atmosphere was very beautiful and we were greeted at the door with smiles. We were seated immediately and our server Ryan was so knowledgeable and very nice. The food was so good. I had the honey walnut shrimp and I just can't even describe how wonderful it was. My fiance had the general tso chicken and he said it was the best he's ever had. We can't wait to go back.

I've loved this restaurant for for almost two decades. The food is savory and fantastic. Try the Bang Bang Shrimp, you'll be glad you did. The chicken wings are also amazing. Overall they have generous portion sizes and a variety of options to choose from.

Our server Lexi was great neither of us had ate at a Asian Fusion restaurant She answered all our questions & made suggestions Food was really good only downside was the spring rolls & Crab lagoon were greasy Over all I would highly recommend dinner here Call for a reservation we just about didn't get seated. If I am in this area I will be back to enjoy their food

We were a fan if this restaurant from the days when they were over in the warehouse district. Love the new spot, nothing has changed—food still amazing, great bartenders. Got takeout which we had not done better and it was also delicious! Crispy sesame beef and green beans are our favorites!

This place is amazing! Their food is awesome, the waitstaff are all so nice and knowledgeable and the atmosphere is top notch. Their outdoors space is really lovely- the perfect place for cocktails, appetizers or a whole meal. Highly highly recommend!
