    What a beautiful restaurant! The back patio is perfection. Ashely was our waitress and she had such great recommendations. We started off with the duck salad, followed up with dumplings, tiger prawns, soft shell crab, and finished off with the braised short rib. Everything was phenomenal! Dessert was amazing.

    Came here to say wow, everything was perfect. Any waitress Ashley was incredibly attentive and kind. Atmosphere was classy but fun. Food was absolutely to die for. I recommend the Pork Buns! Shout out to John for his warm greeting, kind eyes, beautiful man.

    Lovely evening! Nice decor, friendly helpful waitstaff - Jess was wonderful helping us navigate the menu and a food allergy as well! Had the cocktail with five spice- really nice take on an old fashioned. Had the pumpkin dumplings, the shrimp ( fantastic) and the pork buns- delicious !! For our " main " , we had the duck noodles- fresh and tasty duck - not fatty or gamey, and the noodles had great texture. I think the sauce could have used some uumph from a flavor perspective, but tasty nevertheless.

    Made a reservation for patio seating on a warm SF evening and was not disappointed. The back patio is the perfect place to sit; it's spacious and set up beautifully. There are also heaters and they offer blankets for chillier weather. The service was very friendly and efficient. Everything we ordered was delicious - the pumpkin puffs, rice noodle roll, braised beef rib, and a chocolate dessert. There are also a variety of wines to choose from, as well as cocktails and multiple N/A cocktail options. Recommended if you're looking for delicious modern Chinese cuisine in a beautiful setting in the Marina.
