Line AtallahMarch 31, 2013It's gotta be one of the most fun restaurants I've ever visited! Long lineups, impossible te reserve, but so worth it!
Michelle SSeptember 10, 2018Alton Brown said sourdough, sauerkraut, pecorino & ricotta pancakes are one of the best things he's ever eaten.
Dhruv BFebruary 2, 2013Must try: Ricotta dumplings w pumpkin soubise, duck liver mousse w almond biscuit, & hamachi avocado seaweed crostini.- Meaghan HFebruary 13, 2020One of the best restaurants in the city, but almost impossible to get a reservation.
- Julia KernAugust 11, 2014Everything was amazing. Can't go wrong with getting dishes as they come around versus ordering from the menu.
Tim BFebruary 19, 2017Arrive hungry; Try everything! The friendly team were super helpful in helping choose the best dishes.- Nancy TranJuly 7, 2015What a great little Michelin gem. It's very difficult to get reservations but worth it.
Stephanie LOctober 18, 2014Go with friends so you can try lots of different dishes - they are all amazing!!
Daniela AcevesFebruary 27, 2013Get the State Bird (fried quail) it's delicious! Menu does change weekly based on seasonal items but if its available get it.
Allison YuFebruary 25, 2015The duck fried rice, mushroom toast, and garlic bread with burrata were my favorites.
Adam FriedbergApril 21, 2014Without a reservation, you'll need to start lining up at 30 min before the doors open.
Jia JiaOctober 2, 2012Even late reservation are fine -- the dim sum style means there is food on your table just seconds after you sit down, and you won't be hungry for long.
Heather SApril 7, 2013Pork belly w citrus. Liver mousse w almond biscuits. Chicory ice cream sandwich. Etc... LOVE!
Stephanie LAugust 23, 2014Worth the wait to try and get reservations. Garlic bread burrata: don't share!
Say yes to everything they offer. If you want to try walk-in, be there before 4:30 PM.
Katherine ChanApril 20, 2013Want a prime-time reservation? Wake up at around 4 AM 60 days before your date of choice. It's worth it!- Adam FFebruary 10, 2013It's worth the wait... Stand in the "sweet spot" to get seated faster and bond with the awesome chefs.
SerenaSeptember 15, 2014got in line at 4:30 on a Sunday for a party of three and had my choice of either the 5:30 or 7:30 seating.
Jon PascarellaSeptember 9, 2015Don't say no to anything! It is all incredible. Figure $75 per person with a couple drinks
Ben ChenAugust 3, 2015Love the dim sum serving style! Most of the food is French/American though, not Asian.
Ryan LandryMarch 13, 2014Order the Paul Mathew Russian River Valley Pinot to go with your dinner. Fairly priced and quite tasty.
- If they sent this food to the Middle East, there would be no more war in the Middle East.
Jessica TaylorJune 17, 2016The atmosphere was more causal than expected. Food was good and just enough.
Get: Duck liver mousse. Farro. Mushroom toast. Ice cream sandwich.
Laurence BOctober 2, 2015The toast is actually quite good, but the important thing is to save room for dessert.
Jen KimOctober 24, 2012You can order the signature dishes you're looking forward to without waiting for the cart to come around
