    Food was pretty good. A little bit on the saltier side but overall it was okay. I don't think anything really stuck out though. We came on a week night so it was quiet and there was one singer periodically performing songs on stage. The decor inside was really unique and pretty. Lots of photo opportunities. Service was good. Food came out in a timely manner and our waiter was attentive and friendly.

    Good were great, service could be improved. Their rice wasn't fully cooked but they did offer replacement. Environment was pretty nice with live music, cost around $20 for 1-2 songs per request. Overall is good. Easy street parking.

    Ocean battle: contains crab, shrimps, and tripe. The plate is a bit of a mess, but tastes decent. It's quite heavy and fried, and the spice gets a bit old after a while. I did really like the underside of the crab heads (the creamy stuff), and I think they cooked it with some cheese or other. I wouldn't necessarily recommend, but it is a decent dish. Roast chicken: this is really good, though I wish they marinated the chicken more. The skin is SO crispy and delicious, yet the meat tastes like regular chicken. I also thought the sweet and sour dipping sauce was too sweet and didn't pair with the savory chicken. I loved the ambiance and the singer came on once in a while which was nice. I loved the service as well, the server (in chinese) was very attentive and gave us a lot of good descriptions and advice.

    Checked this spot out for the first time, the decor was beautiful inside and had a lot of greenery hanging around. It got a little overwhelming with all the decor and the large screen that played throwback live songs. Eventually a lady performed live and it sounded amazing however, the background screen still played other videos which made it quite distracting. Food was overpriced and the waiter wasn't able to describe the dish that well in English so I wasn't sure what to expect for some dishes. The eggplant was super saucy and delicious!
