They listened to my special requests from when I had made the reservation and made my husband's birthday special but without embarrassing him. We both love the atmosphere. The volume level and choice of music was perfect as was the service. I highly recommend the fried chicken bao but all of the food was excellent.More infoLingerPrice: Expensive• Global, International• Highlands•4.7

Everyone we saw, from the waitstaff to the clerk at the elevator, was super friendly and welcoming. A stand out, was our server Tyler. He had great suggestions, and was a delight. The food in the restaurant was amazing, and the atmosphere was really cool. I hope to return one day.More infoEl FivePrice: Very Expensive• Mediterranean• Highlands•4.7
