Verdict? The xiao long bao (steamed juicy pork dumplings) were the highlight as always, while the wontons and fish fillet dishes came in at a close second. Everything else was a little mediocre, with dessert being the least impressive dish. But the service was great, the decor was stylish, and there was a lot of food. Overall, it was a delicious banquet bargain and perfect for a catch up dinner - I wouldn't hesitate to snap up another deal!
