With barely twenty seats indoors and a hum along the sidewalk, dinner moves fast from duck and chive dumplings to crisp prawn toast bao buns.

  • Modern Asian Banquets: Sharing banquets pair cocktails with inventive plates like prawn toast bao buns and green curry beef ribs.
  • Dietary-Minded Care: Attentive service glides through allergy requests and gluten-free adjustments without missing a beat.
