    Pork buns are probably one of the best items on the menu. Delicious!

    Incredibly painful slow service. Everyone gets called " lady" by staff. Servers have excellent pouring skills.

    They cut the sushi in large pieces - ask them to cut it smaller. Still delicious though!

    Nice place, but don't go if in a hurry. Service is good, but super slow. Chef Zon's chicken is very good.
