We only had cocktails but they were excellent. We especially loved the ginger tequila scenario. Very good, with vanilla and salt on the rim. We loved loved the decor, what a beautiful place, and so cunningly hidden behind a turquoise velvet curtain. The staff was very attentive as well.

Gorgeous ambiance. Food was nicely prepared and beautifully presented. Crispy tofu skin roll with herby sauce was delicious. Noodle with nutty sauce was very good, and of a decent portion for sharing. Great cocktail options. The manager lady was very attentive and handled things with professional manner. Will definitely be back to try more dishes.

Surprisingly delicious place to have a meal! Located upstairs in the Tin building in the South Street Seaport. The speakeasy entrance adds a little bit of charm. The fusion meal was great. The service was very friendly. The place has a very welcoming vibe! I definitely recommend this place.

Located in the Tin Building at the South Street Seaport…if more stars were an option! From the moment we sat down the service was spectacular. We were genuinely welcomed in. The decor, flawless including the acoustical ceiling, the Chinese inspired meal was flavourful and enjoyable. Dessert, whimsical and heavenly with marshmallow, chocolate & almonds- … we cannot wait to return. If I didn’t have Valentine plans I would make a Rez.

This place is such a great find in the Jean Georges Tin Building. It’s deemed as a “speakeasy” behind one of the stores but obviously everyone knows it’s there. The food was pretty good. The eggplant was AMAZING. The dessert, fortune cookie, was great. Nut allergy note on the dessert – it has almond in it. The drinks were okay. Our serve was great. It’s very well put together and worth a try when you are in the area, along with the rest of the Tin Building.

Food was tasty – fusion Chinese for sure and a little salty for my taste but not bad at all! Atmosphere is great and the entrance is super cute. We had an issue with one of our dishes and they were so apologetic and comped our dessert which we really appreciated.

Exquisite. Step through the velvet curtain and be welcomed by a smiling host in front of a lovely bar and lounge.. more sumptious velvet invites a seat. Turn to the left and take in the glamour evoked by old Shanghai, gold detailed wall paper, luxurious banquets, shapely chandeliers and a lovely private room behind wood pillars ties the room together. Amusments for the finely detailed eye.

I love a speakeasy! And this restaurants interior decorator should receive a bonus. The place is beautiful. The drinks are really lovely and the service is great.
