"I have been waiting forever to come here so I had high hopes since this place was hyped up for a long time after it opened. Sadly, it did not live up to the hype for me. We made reservations for 5pm and I had requested a quieter table if possible for my hearing impaired husband who doesn’t do well with a lot of background noise. We always understand if that’s not possible. However, the place was empty and we were sat at a 2 seater right near the kitchen where all of the employees gathered right behind us and chatted away. And, who wants to be right by the kitchen?? We ordered the pork bun appetizer. Delish! Solid dish. For entree’s we ordered the ribeye and the scallops. When one orders a ribeye they don’t expect a 1” thin slice of meat. You want a hunk of deliciousness. And since it was so thin it was a bit over cooked (asked for medium rare). The flavor was good though. The purée it sat on was fantastic! But so little of it. The scallopswhat a disaster. Two were crunchy withsand?? One entirely inedible. They cooked one single new one and brought it to us. It was crunchy too. I mean break your teeth crystals of I dunno what. We just shut up at that point realizing it’s not going to get any better. For dessert we ordered the monkey bread. It was tasty! But not much monkey bread compared to topping ice cream and whipped cream. Service was fine. No complaints there. A nice gentleman waited on us. All in all, not worth $200. Photo of the only yummy optimistic part of the meal. Everything went downhill after."
