"A small group of us enjoyed cocktails and dinner, sharing several small plates. The food was good as were the cocktails. Our server was also attentive. It was pricey, probably my only complaint. Ambiance was fun and unique. The chicken was like crack and I liked the dumplings the most. Unfortunately they were out of sticky buns. For drinks I had a Moscow mule and a grasshopper. We savored churros for dessert."
