Based on the reviews, my family and I were going to pass on this place. Sooooo glad we decided to be our own food critics!! The food, service and ambiance were all top knotch. We had pad thai, singapore noodles, salt and pepper chicken wings, edamame, wanton soup, a chicken salad of some sort (pictured below) and crab ragoons. Forgot all the pics but we will definitely return.

It was a late Sunday afternoon and we needed a place to eat before the Nutcracker show in downtown Raleigh. We made a great choice as it was close enough for a quick drive there but also had availability given it was not in walking distance. The ambiance was great. It was a Comfortable, clean space. The waitress served us right away. Despite being low staffed she was on the spot with all things . We had the David's dumplings, edamame, and cream cheese rangoons for an app. All very delicious. For our meal we had chicken pad Thai and sesame chicken. Both dishes were a hit. The chicken pad Thai was one of the best I've had. I split it so we didn't add spice - that would have made it better for me! Can't say enough about the service. Definitely look forward to going back.

I came here on a Wednesday night with coworkers for a bite to eat. The ambiance of this place is really cool. First off, as soon as you walk into the door, you are immediately greeted by floor to ceiling brick walls and arched doorways. This had to have been an older building converted into a restaurant. That was really cool! I ordered their green tea and the presentation was really cool. It came out in a white ceramic tea pot. The tea wasn't very hot though, that was a little disappointing, as it was a cold night and I was expecting something warm. For my appetizer, I ordered their wonton soup and that was absolutely delicious. For entrees, my coworkers and I split their moosho pork, with steamed buns along with their sesame chicken. The flavor of the sauce of the sesame chicken dish was very good, and of a good consistency, but I found the chicken to be a little overcooked. On the flip side, I have nothing but great things to say about the moosho pork. The buns were also the most perfect pairing. I knocked off a star for the lukewarm tea and overcooked chicken, but I definitely would come back here again and try something else of their menu, the next time I'm in town!

This restaurant has been on my list to visit for a couple of years. I was finally able to go. It was fine. Nothing spectacular. The reason I gave it 4 stars was because the dumplings were disappointing. They were not warm and the dumpling dough was thick. We got the David's dumplings and the crispy spicy wontons. The wontons were better. I liked the crispy dough but they weren't spicy at all. The entree meals were better. I had the Malaysian curry soup which had a nice kick and was steaming hot. It had lots of different toppings in it which was nice. My husband got the fried rice. It was also really good. The Chinese sausage complimented the rice well and there were plenty shrimp in it too. If I went back I would forgo the dumplings and just go straight to having the entree.

I like coming here for lunch, the staff is always nice and if you have a limited lunch amount of time they're very quick with their service. I love their pad thai with shrimp or tofu/veggies, and their sesame tofu. The pork dumplings are so good!

Great spot to get some really good noodles and dumplings. The service was really good, food came out hot and fast. I really liked that it felt upscale with a lot of room. Everything was excellent.

My family and I came for dinner on a Saturday night around 5 pm and we were seated right away. The restaurant is spacious and there is a big bar area with a lot of seating. Our waitress was friendly and the food came out really fast. For appetizers we shared the edamame and for drinks we tried the tropical fruit sake flight which was delicious - the peach was my favorite! For entrees I ordered the ginger garlic chicken. The sauce had a lot of flavor and the chicken was tender. I also tried a bite of the kung pao chicken, sesame chicken, sesame tofu, and the curry noodles and found each dish to be full of flavor. Overall, the food and service here were great. I took off one star because the dishes were pretty pricy (~$18-25) and the portions could've been bigger, especially considering the price.

Came here for lunch on a Wednesday with my daughter. It was super quiet. The decor is lovely with brick walls and pretty lights hanging from the ceiling. Service was great, very attentive. I recommend the wonton soup and the Malaysian curry with roti to start. I would skip the half fried pork dumplings which are kind of like doughy meatballs. The waiter said they are boiled then fried on the bottom. They were too dense for my taste. I also ordered an extra Malaysian curry with roti to go as well as sesame tofu with rice and egg roll. Not bad. The tofu is fried and slightly sweet. I'll try noodles the next time I come here!
