We loved everything about this restaurant. We wanted creative, light fare, and this was the perfect place for us. We had the edamame dumplings appetizer and a couple of noodle bowls for entrees; all were delicious and came to our table quickly. The service was fantastic. The server was attentive and answered all of our questions. It was very easy to have a conversation, and the seating was comfortable. We loved this place. I felt very comfortable wearing dress casual attire, but would feel less comfortable in casual attire because it is a very nice setting.
