One of the best restaurants in Ann Arbor! In my opinion the tuna is the best dish on the menu and I would highly recommend it. The crispy rice and three sauces with the tuna is just the best combination. I have to also say that the bartenders always do a great job. Any cocktails or mixed drinks are consistently well done. The wine list is extensive too! Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, anniversary, or just want a nice dinner, this is the perfect spot.

The food was good! It wasn’t “OMG AMAZING” but it was still enjoyable. My favorite dish was the Southeast Asian Crabcakes. The flavors were meshed together perfectly. We also had the five spice duck and the Japanese style Sablefish. Those both were okay. Maybe I was expecting more of the Asian flavor profile so I found it lacking. But I do recommend giving it a try!

I took a 5pm reservation for our family of 4 , with a request for 2 high chairs. We were greeted very warmly by the host, he even had the two high chairs set up for us in a nice corner of the restaurant. Being 5 pm, we beat the restaurant week traffic. The server was amazing. Polite, quick and accommodating. The food was fantastic. We had the pork belly for appetizer. The Korean inspired rib eye with quail eggs for main course. And shared a dessert of dark chocolate mousse with passion fruit sabayon sauce. Mouthwatering! Best service ever! They have nice individual restrooms. No diaper changing station but we didn’t have an issue with that.

I was not impressed with the food here. I tried the peanut noodles and it lacked flavor so I notified the waitress and got something else. I also tried the spring rolls and passion fruit mousse and did not care for either one. Their dumplings were decent but overall I‘ve had much better food in other restaurants. For some reason this place is only open 4-5 hours a day for dinner.

Went there for a birthday celebration. The quality of the food was excellent! The wine list was very unique. The beef tenderloin melted in your mouth and had no chewy parts whatsoever. The Thai peanut noodles had an explosion of different tastes. Taylor was a very attentive server. Will definitely come back.

I have been to many upscale, mid tier and hole in the wall Asian restaurants. I am Asian, Asian food is very close to my heart.

I can see why this restaurant is highly rated. All the dishes were so delicious. My son said his ribeye was so tender and flavorful. My branzino skin was nice and crispy, fish cooked to perfection. Try the almond panna cotta. Wish I had a second serving! Our server was very attentive and friendly. Restaurant is cozy with nice ambience. Price on higher end but definitely worth it for a special meal.

Delicious food and cocktails! I got the seared tuna, which was wonderful and a very pretty plate. I also had the red viper drink, which was delicious. Habenero tequila was the perfect amount of heat. Our server was very informative and friendly.
