Koi Fine Asian Cuisine & Lounge

I enjoy the menu, especially happy hour, and the atmosphere and food are good, but the service is really hit or miss. Most of the time you have to flag someone down to get exactly what you need. It’s inconsistent and I wish it were better because I really do like this restaurant.

We went during happy hour as a party of 4 on a thursday and had a wonderful time. Food were all great, our favorite was fire dragon maki. We were happy when we received the billl, planning to come again!

We had a wonderful time with Yelp at Koi Fine Asian Cuisine Restaurant. It was a great event where we got to try not only their great cocktails, but, some of their delicious food! We were able to try the following: Pomegranate Lychee Belini Lychee Martini Vegetable Spring Rolls Vegetable Dumplings Damage Vegetable Maki Rolls Dragon Fire Maki Everything was fresh and delicious and a great time was had by all attendees. We can't wait to come back and try more of their menu.

Haven't been here in years and my first time having dim sum here! So delicious and beautifully presented! Loved the atmosphere, service and food!

Food was adequate, nothing spectacular. Service needed work. We had a large group, so a 20% gratuity was automatically added. NOT happy with that. Waiter got food orders wrong, sent waitstaff to deliver food but had no idea who ordered what so it was a screaming match. Multiple times has to ask for water refills. How does a waiter let water glasses sit empty for so long. Overall, just poor service (but you still have to pay the 20% gratuity). The better question on reviews should be “ would you recommend to a friend or would you go back? The answer would be no.

Great cantonese flavor! solid service..highly recommended!

Stopped by recently, and it was a pretty chill spot. Nothing super fancy or unique, but it’s a nice, easy place for locals to get sushi. They also have a Chinese food menu, which was interesting and gives some variety if you’re in the mood for something different. Our waiter was very attentive, which made the experience more enjoyable. Overall, it’s a solid, low-key spot if you’re nearby and craving sushi.

Changed my rating to from 5 to 4 stars. As a recurring customer I still love this restaurant, but I do acknowledge they have some issues. Some dishes are wonderful and some are just ok. The thing is even the best dishes are not always the same (you can come and have a very good dish, and a week after have a really different experience from the same dish). Here and there they may accidentally change your order and bring you something else, but again, it's a good restaurant with good food and excellent service - so I do recommend. Old post: Amazing food, great service, can be very noisy but good atmosphire.

I've always wanted to try Koi and was so happy to dine there this Friday. We called ahead to put our names down as they said it would be a 15 min wait. We started off our meal with Shrimp dumplings which were amazing and well cooked. By checking in at Koi on Yelp you also get an appetizer on house! The kitchen was so backed up that our main course took around 25 mins. The lo-mein noodles were alright, nothing special. The sushi took another 10-15 mins to come out and we were not hungry so we tried a couple of pieces and packed up the rest. The sushi was so good and had a spicy kick to it. I would definitely come back for their happy hour menu which is $6 for everything including drinks. My friends raved about the lychee martinis that is on my list to try! Service was friendly but slow on a Friday night.

Shout out yelp for the coupon for a starter to which I ordered the spring rolls. Came out hot and crunchy! It was my first time trying the shrimp dumplings in the trio that were good but not as good as my newly favorite long bao dumplings(yellow tinted)! Lava cake was excellent. I demolished in about 2 min. Immediate seating, and great service. I ordered all my food at once. Mind you this was post yoga, I was hungry asf.

I have been to Koi several times. My ultimate favorite meal here is dim sum on the weekends. I've taken friends here, family and my boyfriend and I love to go here when we're missing our favorite spot. They have bottomless mimosas for an incredibly good price. The food is phenomenal. An easy repeat restaurant that I love for dim sum. Can't wait to go back again!

Went for happy hour. Service was ok. Limited street parking. Food didn't really impress. Out of everything we ordered the edamame was my favorite. Next time I might stay clear of the happy hour menu.

We went here for dinner last night and started off with the steamed dumpling trio which comes with 2 soup dumplings, 2 shrimp dumplings, and 2 shrimp shumai. The shumai were underwhelming in our opinion, but the other two were so good and flavorful. We both agreed that our entrees were so good and the portions were huge! I will definitely have to return to try the dim sum brunch!

Loved the soothing low lighting, fireplace and overall vibe. Great variety of Asian dishes from different regions, including Szechuan and Cantonese dishes. Our favorites were the steamed shrimp dumplings and steamed fish with broccoli, noodles and cilantro. Staff were friendly and helpful. Koi is located on a busy street, so arrive early to allow ample time to find parking. Download the Park Evanston app for street parking.

The food here is definitely good! I'd definitely come back to try their dim sum brunch and it's amazing that they offer a student menu! I pareticularly loved the portion size of our entrees. Definitely a good amount of food and the prices weren't too bad. The service was a bit slow, but we still had a good time.

I finally went back to this place for the Dim Sum brunch. I made sure to make a reservation this time, but it was empty. Either way, the food was pretty good! They make soup bao which is on the Dim Sum menu as well. We pretty much had dumplings along with the scallion pancake. Everything was excellent ,but I call a special shout out to the scallion pancake. They were tasty and perfect. I went with the bottomless bloody marys which was good, but missing "something". I was hoping for something a little more Asian inspired, but instead I just got a solid bloody mary. Will I be back,, probably. The food has always been good. The service has been the iffy factor. Maybe I will just cross my fingers to get a good server. The Dim Sum Brunch server was excellent so yay!

We came to Koi for the dim sum brunch. It was a lovely afternoon and the front of the restaurant was open, letting a pleasant breeze waft through. We had reservations so they seated us promptly in a little alcove off the main dining room. I was a little surprised that it wasn't more crowded. We mentioned to our server that we were celebrating a birthday and I also noted that I checked in via Yelp (which yields you a free appetizer -- we chose spring rolls). We then proceeded to order almost everything on the dim sum menu (using the order sheet and pencil). It was just a short while before a dizzying array of steaming baskets were delivered to our table. Stacks of baskets with enticing aromas wafting out -- we started on stir fried baby bok choy, Chinese broccoli in oyster sauce, thin and crispy scallion pancakes, xia long bao (soup dumplings), chive pockets, sweet cream buns.... It was about this time, as we watched the stack of empty steamer baskets climb to an alarming height, that someone posed the question, was that everything? No it was not, as evidenced by additional baskets sallying forth, and displaying gleaming beef short ribs in black pepper sauce, pork belly and Peking duck nestled taco-style in pillowy white bao buns, scalding shrimp dumplings...The fatal flaw in our family DNA, we always order too much. We ate and then ate more. Even the champion eaters in our group had to wave the white flag. We had a grand time, we enjoyed the food, the service, the fine atmosphere. Then our server inquired, what would you like for your birthday dessert? The guest of honor and their friends selected mango and green tea mochi ice cream. That was a fine cap to our brunch. But wait, there's more. A plate of delicious almond cookies and fortune cookies was offered. Then it was time to take a few laps around the block before heading home.

Came for a happy hour before an event. Was super psych to have $6 cocktails. I didn't get food on this occasion but the person sitting next to me at the bar got some really wonderful chicken satay and a salad also on the happy hour menu. That being said I would definitely come back to check out koi and try some additional sushi options. I was fortunate that I was able to see the sushi chef prepare several rolls. The fish looked very fresh.

I came to Koi with some coworkers to take advantage of their happy hour menu. While I was slightly underwhelmed with what I tried, I can't deny the awesome specials offered during happy hour. We came on a Thursday evening and Koi was already bustling. The interior space is stunning! We sat in the front room which had nice natural light and pretty lanterns hanging from the ceiling. The happy hour menu offers discounts on starters, maki, wine/sake/beer, and craft cocktails. The offers take place during weekdays from 4:30-6pm and all items listed are $6. We started with the edamame wok fire which was my favorite of the night! The edamame is stir-fried in a yummy, spicy sauce with chilis. I loved this fun twist on on the standard edamame, and it gave it great flavor. It's definitely spicy, so if you aren't a fan of that I would steer clear. We also tried the crab wontons, which were light and crispy, but the cream cheese/crab mix on the inside really tasted just like cream cheese and not a lot else. The menu is very large and they had quite a lot of options for those who aren't a fan of sushi or not in the mood. I went with the stir fried broccoli and added beef. Although it says it's stir-fried it was extremely soupy because of all the sauce it was served with. It made the broccoli pretty soggy, which I didn't enjoy. Those who ordered the sushi seemed to enjoy their dishes much more! I think I would come back here again to take advantage of the happy hour, but will probably go the sushi route next time.

I want to first take the time to recognize their insane happy hour deals! Everyday from 4:30-6pm, they have a bunch of $6 specials, along with certain specialty sushi rolls being half off Tues-Thurs. The actual restaurant itself is much bigger inside than it looks like from the outside. It's super cute and authentic looking; you're greeted with hanging red lanterns on the ceiling and books on the sides of the wall. They have a spacious bar in the middle of the restaurant, as well. Crab Rangoons - 8.5/10, they had the perfect amount of crab cream cheese inside, but were a bit too large for my liking Wok fired edamame - 10/10, way better than regular edamame! Dragon roll - 8/10, it was very standard dragon roll but it was good! Fire dragon roll - 7.5/10, this was a specialty roll but was half off during the Thursday happy hour special. The actual rolls were tiny! I appreciate a smaller roll, but they were so small it felt like I was just eating rice with all the toppings (spicy mayo & eel sauce). Our server was nice, but a bit too fast - lately I feel like my experiences at restaurants have included servers wanting you in and out as quick as possible, but I go out for food with friends to take our time, talk, and chill over good food & drinks! You could definitely tell she wanted us in and out; we weren't given a lot of time between apps, drinks and dinner to decide what we wanted. Overall I'd definitely be back for their happy hour menu!

We came for a special lion dance event and the place was packed full! It was a lot of fun. The food was so-so and the "special lunar new year" menu was just items off their regular menu with a different name. We tried a few different things and nothing was really spectacular, but it was quite expensive. I might go back again for a special event, but probably not for just a meal.

Came here for father's day dim sum lunch. Food was fantastic! Not pictured was shumai, greens. Good selection of food. Servers were very nice. They were busy but attentive. Food was served quickly. Loved the decorations, cleanliness. Will definitely be back if we're in Evanston!

Food is so good and drinks are beautiful! in such a great place in the city! Walking distance from the parking garage. Just have to go up the chase elevator and walk across the street. There is also street parking. Lots of seating and staff is friendly!

Koi, located in the heart of Evanston's bustling downtown on Davis Street. We offer fresh sushi, authentic Chinese cuisines from 8 different regions of China and Dim Sum Brunch with $12 bottomless Mimosas and Bloody Mary every weekend. The relaxing setting for date night, or just catching up with friends or sharing a family-style meal with the ones you love.

Upon leaving, I stopped in the men's restroom and saw two cooks leaving without washing their hands. I won't be returning just for that reason.

Been here a couple of times. The food is always ok and am never that impressed about it but what's great is the happy hour menu (430-6). Food and drinks are around $6. I would say that sushi is their specialty, it's always fresh and does the job each time. Crab rangoons are one of my favorite foods but they don't rly do it justice here. They're too large and the dipping sauce on the side is not good at all. I would say that their drinks are delicious, I love the lychee martini! They are always made strong which I appreciate. Service is also always great - my favorites are Fatima and Stephanie . Overall I would say Koi is only worth it for happy hour and never for full price.

I've never left a negative review before, but when a restaurant delivers totally below average food, I have to alert others. Departing for Florida to stay 5-months and decided to order on the phone with instructions to deliver to my alley entrance. They had my cell #. Delivery was suppose to be in an hour. After 2-hours I called and was told it was delivered. So, I checked the backdoor and went down to our condo bldg's main entrance. There it was OUTSIDE!! Delivery guy didn't call but buzzed several time I'm told. Being in the tv room watching a football game nothing was heard. The edamame was free and as expected, but the Dover Sole (Why a frozen upscale fish when cod/whitefish/monkfish would travel better ‍). was as it tends to be without flavor and it's broccoli flowers were raw. The glass rice noodles I liked.

Went here on Lunar New Year and was fairly surprised! Of course it wasn't full on authentic but there were some things we liked. We really like the scallion pancakes, the Bloody Mary, duck, and the shrimp dumplings. We wanted two other dumplings but they were out due to the busy weekend. The Singapore noodles and salt and pepper shrimp are usually my favorite to order but lacked flavor here so definitely wouldn't get again. The dim sum brunch and bottomless mimosas and Bloody Mary are $12 so I would say that's a pretty good deal. Pretty cozy ambiance and great eateries in the area.

So nasty. We ordered a bunch of food for delivery; it was a disaster! Delivered to wrong address and food came an hour later. Not even the worst part! Everything tasted bad and Mongolian beef was disgusting. It smelled like fish and meat was raw!! Food safety hazard! I wouldn't expect this at a cheap Chinese restaurant, let alone a "higher end" restaurant. Called and basically shrugged it off. We will never return. Yuck

Good spot for Chinese food and beautifully decorated. Unfortunately this place is hit or miss depending on what you order. Some dishes are amazing while others are overly salted while some other dishes are bland and some are just right. It's this inconsistency that stops it from being a five star spot. I haven't been here in a long while and stopped in to see if these things had changed at all but nope, still the same inconsistencies like before and the service is always a little questionable and that hasn't changed either. With that said I still recommend this place and when you find a dish you like here you won't be dissatisfied.

Good and amazing orange chicken and also sushi was the best. I will go again there for sure

I'm sad to say this was an underwhelming dining experience. We came on a Friday night with a reservation and the place looked swanky and inviting as we walked to our table. Service was incredibly slow, but we were okay with that since we had a group of four and were catching up for a while. It took a while to get a drink order in, and then an app order. However, once we ordered the mains, things seemed to pick up. The menu was incredibly overwhelming (so many options, but difficult to navigate), so we leaned on our waiter for options. We ended up ordering the steamed dumpling trio (not fresh, tasted like frozen microwaveable dumplings), spring rolls (decent but we were not warned of the wasabi sauce so it was VERY spicy), a beef dish with onions and green pepper (lacked flavor), the garlic shrimp ALSO with onions and green pepper (lacked garlic and was breaded but soggy), and a spicy chicken of sorts (had the most flavor of the dishes but lots of peanuts and celery which in my opinion did not pair well together). I left feeling disappointed and unsatisfied. Perhaps we should have done more research on the menu beforehand, rather than leaning on our waiter. So if you're coming here, come prepared.

I used to frequent Koi when I lived/worked in Evanston, and even went to a few social events here. Always a good time and great food! We hadn't been in years, when my daughter thought of it for her birthday dinner with us and a friend. I made a reservation and I'm glad because they were busy. The 4 of us ordered the spicy chicken wings and baos for an appetizer, General Tso's shrimp and shrimp fried rice to share, and 1-2 sushi rolls each, plus drinks. I love their fried rice and love that they use large shrimp. And the General Tso's shrimp was excellent!! Service was uneven with one appetizer taking far longer than the other, and we were almost done with the two entrees by the time the rolls came out, which were not brought out together either. It's always annoying to me when someone in our party doesn't have their food and everyone else is waiting. This is exactly what happened and my daughter, the birthday girl, received her rolls absolutely last! Our server could tell we were not pleased but she didn't say anything until we flagged her down to inquire. She then said she would check. All the tables around us were getting dishes brought to them while we sat and waited for my daughter's rolls. Talk about annoying! We took advantage of the free appetizer with Yelp checkin and also had a $10 birthday coupon, plus they don't charge for the birthday treat, so those amenities made the evening better. The service was not great; fortunately the food was as good as always. Definitely five stars. We may just order carry out next time, which is sad because we like the ambiance there.

I've eaten at Koi many times, usually getting the same type of food favs, such as the Phoenix Maki, edamame, spicy chicken wings, fried rice. Not sure if the cooks have changed recently, but the only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because the Phoenix Maki was as good as always. The Lo Mein that I ordered though, -5/5 stars unfortunately. The noodles were sticky and dry, no oil or flavor whatsoever, the beef felt uncomfortably soft to the point that I started thinking it was undercooked. The whole thing was awful. I had to add salt, garlic powder, chili sauce, oil, just to make it edible. Super disappointed in this, Koi usually does not let down like this, but this will take me a while to recover from.

I came her for the Sunday dim sum lunch. I have been to many dim sum places and this one is definitely up there. Firstly, the decoration around the place was very cool. I unfortunately did not take pictures of the decor but I thought it was really interesting. A very welcoming place inside and I was very comfortable where I was seated. The restaurant was very clean and the service was excellent. Secondly, the price matched the quality. The quality of the food was great and the price wasn't overly expensive. Additionally, the tea came in a tea pot I've never seen before which made me really enjoy the tea. Overall, I would definitely come to this place again and would recommend this place for dim sum lovers.

Great food along with a variety of delicious dishes. Spicy chicken choices. Good cocktails. The service was just ok. 3,5 stars Kung Pao Great

The atmosphere is really calm. Beautiful works of art all over. Service is good. Food delicious. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for great cuisine.

The menu shrunk from what I saw online. No pork belly or duck baos. We had the check in Yelp appetizer XLB. The skin was thick but had good flavor. 6 smallish for $8. We had the fish with glass noodles which was decent. It came with broccoli that needed to be cooked longer. Also had the braised pork belly. Came over bok Choy. The fat and skin were perfect. The lean was dried out and not yummy. Service was good. But server wasn't familiar with Chinese food so no help in deciding what to order.

Great ambiance d and great food!! The staff is super nice and able to guide you through the drinks and menu! Mai tai and whiskey berry was amazing! Small groups or large group they got you, pot stickers and wings to start! Main course go for the kung pao!!

Nice ambiance okay food. Came out lukewarm. Servers work hard. Very loud. Park at the garage next to Target.

Things started off with a bang at Koi between a solid pan-fried beef dumpling and some wonderful little bao buns. Next up however was a sushi roll that left a lot to be desired. It tasted similar to what you'd expect from a grocery store. Wrapping things up was the curry plate, which was well done, but fairly overpriced at $18. Similar restaurants offer up this very same type of dish for under $15, and taste the exact same. Again; the dish was good, but didn't standout enough to warrant such a huge price discrepancy. All in all, Koi had some highs (bao and dumplings), but the sushi was one that you leave remnants lying around because it's not worth finishing. Well worth it if you can visit with happy hour pricing, but not sure it sets itself far enough apart at regular prices.

This place is one of the best places in Evanston if you ask me. Its clean, neat, tasty, efficient, has curteaus employees etc. My waitress was a friendly young woman from Kyrgyzstan....unless you live in Turkmenistan or Uzbekidtan you dont meet too many people from there. I thought the mackerel was gonna be served as a sushi dish but it's just as good as what it was. Due to my mom being from Russia I had thought it was herring but I was soon corrected. I got the philly roll but i did notice that for those of you feeling adventurous that they seek to have a 4 page menu of pan Asian cuisine so that you will feel in the mood to have all over the other things on the menu. I felt encouraged that people are starting to go out to eat again.

Had an assortment of dim sum for lunch. most of it was just slightly better than supermarket frozen dim sum. also very expensive for what u get. Wouldn't recommend this place for dim sum at all. Go somewhere else or better yet, Shang noodle house down the street.

Food was terrible . I ordered combination pad see ew noodles. It was terribly sweet and the noodles are overly cooked. My wife had Mongolian beef which was also funny because they put i guess a pound of onions with little meat. We also ordered drinks 1 lychee martini which was overly strong. She didnt even bothered to finish it. Service. In terms of service we were greeted at the door nicely. Upon ordering, server didnt even explained that sushi is not served till 430 of the afternoon. The female who served our drinks fixed our wobbly table. Server noticed that were not enjoying our food but didnt even bother again to ask us. Hence the other two table were asked hows their food, if they need anything. Of course the guest are White American. I felt the servers only cater to the white people. Ambiance. Place were simply but organized. I just dont like that we were the first one to arrived their but other table were served first.

Great Cocktails and starters at Koi. Wings and Vegi dumplings are a must! Attentive staff and great decor!

Came here for an event, and as vegetarians, we were pretty disappointed. There were limited vegetarian options, and each one lacked spice or flavor. I'm searching for as close to authentic Asian cuisine as I can, and I don't think this place will hit the spot.

Stopped by here with my family on a weekday night. The servers were pretty friendly and although the restaurant was a little busy we were quickly seated. The menu was huge, with dishes from all different regions of China. The menu was informative about the types of dishes from each region. We tried a few dishes, as well as the Dragon sushi roll. The sushi was presented very well and tasted great. I'd also recommend the Xiao Long Bao as an appetizer. I'd definitely come back to try more items on the menu.

Man what a disappointment. I used to really like this place and thought it was one of the only places in Evanston worth actually going out to but the last few dining experiences I've had were less than subpar. The food is sooo bland and white-washed (legit there were globs of mayonnaise on my walnut shrimp last night) and the service is some of the worst. No utensils set up, no check ins to even get utensils, no water fill ups, and just straight lack of caring. The happy hour seems to be the best time to get decent service and of course the prices are way better then but I've been really disappointed the last 4 times I've come by the lack of service and bland/ really meh food. I'll think about coming back for happy hour in the future but never for a full dining experience with entrees.

Food excellent but misleading ad for restaurant month. Ad said One dumpling per table with entree but waitress said offer only good with takeout . Somewhat confusing 3 star due to misinformation

I had dinner there with my friends last week. It was impossible to have a conversation there because of the loud music. It was for some reason translated to our room from the bar nearby. We and the other guests had to scream at each other to be heard. The menu had several pages printed with very small letters. It was very difficult to make a selection. The food was OK but not so good. I am not coming back to this place.

Food is ok when you get what you actually ordered. Service is not attentive or knowledgeable. Put wrong food in front of people and told them it was something different, including gluten free. Staff clearly needs much better training. Or perhaps different staff. Was almost pushed out the door 20 min before closing. Less than impressed.

Koi does great weekday happy hours that are genuinely a steal! The dim sum isn't mindblowing, but you can't complain for the price. :-) Dined: April 30, 2022

Koi is AMAZING! I was definitely on the fence when I saw it was 3.5 stars but I don't think that rating is representative of its quality. This is a full on sit down fancy esc asian restaurant, which is a real gem. The ambiance is beautiful and they did such a good job decorating the space. I came in with my friends for a reservation of 10, and our waitress took care of us really nicely. They all seemed to really enjoy their food. As a vegan, I had no idea there was an entire vegan menu so I'll be uploading a picture of that here for you all to see. It was really nice that they accommodated for the vegan diet and I appreciate that. I ordered two sweet potato rolls, and they were so crispy and amazing. My only complaint is probably the pricing (9$ per roll?) as these usually span about 6$, but I suppose you're paying for the sit down experience so I understand. It seemed as if the other sushi's are priced that way aswell. There is a happy hour from 4:30 to 6 where you can get half off sushi so I'd definitely recommend taking advantage of that. Overall, amazing restaurant. Would definitely recommend to any sushi lover. :)

Koi is a great restaurant. We went on 2/4/23. 6 top. We had not been there for a couple of years? Can't remember exactly with the Covid years. Great service from David, our server. Great food, especially the chicken curry and basil chicken.

Staff was very pleasant. We thought food portions were very good too. We had the sesame plate and the walnut shrimp both were very good.

Koi is BACK!!! The service is impeccable as usual. Post-Pandemic the food needed a reboot, and I'm HAPPY to say that the food tonight was EXCELLENT. My wife had the duck snd she snd my son ate the whole thing!!! My son's sushi was made to perfection, and "disappeared" in no time flat! My Szechuan Plate (Beef and Chicken) was excellent, the chicken and beef were tender and the veggies were crisp. For dessert my son had the Lava a cake with their vanilla ice cream and my wife had the Triple Chocolate Mousse cake. These too "disappeared" very quickly. Both desserts were delicious. Koi Tip: if you have food allergies or don't like certain ingredients, for example I hate mushrooms, ask the server what is in a dish, because the menu doesn't list all of the ingredients, only the main ones.

This review is for the Dim Sum brunch only. I have passed this place so many time in my life driving around Evanston, but have never been in there. Now I am planning on going back with The Queen very soon just for the dim sum. Just going to cut to the chase on this review: I love dim sum and any place that is closer than China Town and doesn't required me to drive to far and deal with touristy crowds gets my vote. Oh, did I mention they have splits of prosecco? Win win for me. While the dim sum menu isn't as extensive as some I have seen, it hit all the right notes with me. The Doctor and I met a friend of ours there and started out with BBQ Pork Buns, Shrimp Dumplings, Shaomai with Tobiko, Chive Pockets, and Spring rolls for the first round. Food came out fairly quick and was very hot and steamy...excellent. The buns were lovely, with the BBQ not being too sweet. Spring rolls were nicely fried and had a decent flavor but were just like most places. The Shrimp Dumplings and Shaomai with Tobiko were very good...ended up ordering that again on the second round. BBQ Pork Buns made three appearances. We also got the Peppered Shrimp...wasn't a fan of this, but not due to taste. I do not like to work to get to my food...these were prepared with the shell on and that is too much work for me to get to the shrimp. Our friend wanted the Roasted Duck, but there were out of it, so she got the fried chicken dumplings. They were alright but because we were so fixated on getting duck, there was no way they were going to win that taste test. We also shared an order of the Chow Fun Noodles with Beef. This was a great dish, with the noodles being wide and nicely covered in just enough beef and fat to lend to the flavor. At the end of the Funday Sunday, this was a great way to spend a Sunday. Definitely will be back. Shout out to the wait staff as they were on top of things with bringing out food and clearing the table. I will be going back with The Queen and I mean like this coming weekend. I hear those dumplings calling out to me.
