MŌLÌ

Went here with hubby for his birthday. Truly enjoyed everything. Ordered a half Peking Duck, spicy wontons, Beef Chow Fun(asked to make it spicy) and Baby Bok Choy. Everything was so good, nothing I could have done better. The manager Julio came over to see if everything was good and he was so nice, we actually spoke for 10 minutes! Looking forward to the new drinks and cannot wait to go back!

had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! The interior design is absolutely gorgeous—stylish, elegant, and thoughtfully put together. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a relaxed evening out. The service was top-notch from start to finish. The staff were attentive, friendly, and made sure we were well taken care of without being intrusive. As for the food—delicious! Every dish we tried was full of flavor and beautifully presented. The cocktails were also a highlight—creative, well-balanced, and expertly crafted. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food, amazing drinks, and a beautiful setting!

The place is beautiful. The food is great. We had the rainbow soup dumplings, truffle shrimp dumplings, tuna tartare, black pepper prime filet mignon, kung pao chicken. The kung pao chicken was my favorite along with the tuna tartare

The food was really good I enjoyed. We had the lobster dumplings The beef and broccoli the garlic lobster the vegetable fried rice the chicken wontons and the calamari . Every single individual dish was good but the star of the show was The donuts 10 out of 10

Disappointing Experience at Moli – Overpriced and Overhyped I found Moli in Connecticut while searching for a nice restaurant to celebrate my mom’s birthday, which happened to be on St. Patrick’s Day. I saw a TikTok video featuring the restaurant, and it looked aesthetically pleasing, upscale, and had excellent reviews. I checked Google, Yelp, and even the TikTok comments—everything seemed promising. Excited, my family and I drove 1 hour and 6 minutes from New Jersey to get there. I even left work early to surprise my mom with a road trip, which she loves, along with good food and a beautiful restaurant. Unfortunately, our experience did not live up to expectations. Ambiance & Service (8/10) Upon arrival, the restaurant looked much smaller than expected from the outside. However, once inside, the decor was impressive. The huge chandelier was one of the reasons I chose this place. The atmosphere was upscale and well-designed. However, the lighting was extremely dim, making it difficult to read the menu. My mom actually had to use her phone flashlight just to see the menu properly, which was frustrating. The service was excellent—attentive, friendly, and professional. However, I was surprised that despite the restaurant being relatively busy, there was only one main waiter taking orders, with others assisting. One important note: reservations require a credit card, and they charge $10 per person if you’re late. You only get a 15-minute grace period before your reservation is canceled. Luckily, we arrived on time and were seated right away. Drinks (10/10) Moli’s drink menu was impressive. The cocktails were well-crafted, delicious, and visually appealing. However, they are pricey—$20 per cocktail and even a simple Coke or ginger ale costs $4. Food (2/10) – The Biggest Disappointment This is where everything fell apart. We ordered four appetizers and a couple of entrées, expecting a fine-dining Chinese cuisine experience. Instead, we got overpriced, bland, and uninspired food. Appetizers: Braised short rib – Tender, but completely unseasoned. Duck rolls – Neither my mom nor I liked these. The taste was so off that my mom actually spit it out. Sweet and sour tofu – One of the only good dishes. Vegetable stir-fried rice – Also delicious, but nothing special. Pork bao buns – Good. Soft, flavorful, and enjoyable. Shrimp & pork dumplings/wontons – Tasty, but they came with a "spicy" sauce that had zero spice. We asked for chili oil, but it was also not spicy at all. Entrées: Grilled fish dish – A complete failure. The two pieces of fish were cooked well but had no seasoning whatsoever. No salt, no pepper—nothing. The sauce it was served with was a tangy yellow sauce that did not complement the fish. To top it off, they placed a pile of raw greens on top that felt completely out of place. Overpriced & Lacking Value For the $250 bill (after removing the duck rolls), the food was not worth it. We still tipped $46 because the service was great, but we left incredibly disappointed. No complimentary bread or soup – For such a high-end restaurant, I was surprised they offered nothing while waiting. Most fine dining places at least offer bread or a small appetizer. No kids’ menu – A huge issue. My nephew had nothing to eat because they only had plain rice—no pizza, no fries, nothing kid-friendly. Dessert (7/10) – One of the few highlights. The dessert was actually delicious, but it wasn't enough to redeem the overall meal. Final Verdict: 3/10 Ambiance & decor: 8/10 (docked a point for the dim lighting) Service: 10/10 Drinks: 10/10 Food: 2/10 Value for money: 1/10 Would I return? Absolutely not. The food was bland, overpriced, and not authentic Chinese cuisine. I regret bringing my mom here for her birthday, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone traveling a long distance. It might be Instagram-worthy, but if the food isn’t good, it’s not worth it.

We really enjoyed the Chinese restaurant. The interior was beautiful, and the staff was attentive and helpful. The food was an added bonus. The only downside was the long wait for a reservation—we could only book a table in three weeks. The service in Connecticut is very different from New York, and in a better way.

Stopped by for dinner, and we were not disappointed. It's a beautiful space with vaulted ceilings and great surroundings. Service was excellent and our server gave great advice on our meal - the peking duck was excellent alongside great cocktails. Will definitely be back!

In a class to its own for Authentic Asian restaurants in CT. Only two places it falls short is identifying with Shanghai as a concept. When in Reality it’s more along lines of Similar concepts in Singapore, KL and Bangkok. But understand reasoning given towns intellectual limitations or at least from my experience. Also the dim sum baskets seemed remarkably down market for such an upscale restaurant. Will return again and recommend highly to others.

Was excited to try this new spot in Greenwich! Immediately upon entering it gave a Tao vibe, which was confirmed when we got the menus and the food. It's pretty much a small town Tao, with the high ceilings and all. The food was great, what you'd expect from a swanky Asian fusion place - nothing blew me away. Great lychee martini though! We were placed on the balcony second floor and unfortunately our service was pretty bad as a result, I think they only had one server up there.

The ambience is stunning. The service and quality of cuisine is top-notch. The Kung Pao Chicken and Black Pepper Prime Filet Mignon dishes here at Moli were the best we've ever had. However I wish they offered regular spring rolls. They instead have Peking duck spring rolls. I prefer meatless spring rolls.

Full disclosure: I'm leaving this review while still seated. We just finished our mains but it feels like prime time to report back. I was unsure of how our experience would go, because we had a reservation and still had to wait 45 minutes to be seated. The manager came straight to our table for an unprovoked apology, complimentary sparkling wine, and two complimentary appetizers. We had the tuna tartare and some sort of yellow tail dish, and both were solid. We also ordered the crispy eggplant, sweet and sour tofu, and my husband had the chicken potstickers. The eggplant was the standout. Crispy, perfectly seasoned, and just unexpected. The tofu was delicious, too, albeit fairly conventional. For mains, my husband had the chicken and broccoli, and I had the bronzini. It was...perfection. The skin was crispy and savory, the broth was slightly sweet. My pants currently feel tight, so I left a lot on the plate. We also had the fried rice. It was good and as you'd expect. We're waiting for our dessert (this is celebratory), but my only regret is not having starved all day to make room for the over abundance of food we ordered.

Such a beautiful place with incredible service and food! Came here on a Saturday for an early dinner for 2 without a reservation and we were quickly seated. The inside is beautifully decorated and the staff are super attentive. We started with the half peking duck and it was incredible! The second portion of the dish is peking duck with bok choy and mushrooms which all in all was super filling. We also got the chili wonton which was delicious and has a nice kick. We then got the cod and vegetable fried rice and the cod was my absolute favorite dish. The miso glaze is perfection and pairs really nicely with the fried rice. An absolute must get! We finished with the beef chow fun which was a big portion size and was delicious! Really beautiful place with equally delicious food!

I had been looking forward to coming here since they opened. It's a BEAUTIFUL space, with decor that is a nod to 1940's Shanghai. It is elegant and the dress code says no shorts or sportswear. My husband and I came on a Friday for lunch right when they opened and it was quiet and lovely. I had the Dragon Dance cocktail which was super refreshing for the warm day (cucumber and lime), and my husband had a whiskey cocktail that was similar to an herbal tea. We both liked mine better. For his second cocktail, he ordered the Moli Moli which was the hit of all 3 cocktails. It was served in a teapot with dry ice, so it looks like it is hot/steaming when poured into the teacup, but it is a cold cocktail. It was infused with lemongrass, ginger, and coconut. So good and the presentation was gorgeous. We decided to order a bunch of dim sum and appetizers, including: - Kimchi scallop tartare (with mango, cucumber, tomato) - Shrimp truffle dumplings (steamed) - Szechuan chili wontons (our favorite) - Pork bao - Honey walnut shrimp - BBQ char siu Our server Norma was lovely and very helpful in recommending the most popular dishes/cocktails, as well as her favorites. For dessert, we opted for the sesame green tea balls. They were tasty but 4 for just the two of us was a lot, as they were quite large and steaming hot! I'd love to come back here at night to get more of the vibe when it's busier. We thoroughly enjoyed everything we ate and the cocktails were delicious.

Mōlì, located in Greenwich CT, is a chic Shanghai inspired establishment. The restaurant took over an old bank and was converted into such a beautiful place with tasty innovative takes on Chinese classics. That centerpiece chandelier is stunning. Everywhere you look there is elegance and art. The service is top notch and not overwhelming. The wine list is impressive and the cocktails are fun. This up coming Father's Day weekend will complete their first year of service so relatively new. I recommend this place. Food ordered: Beet Salad Braised Beef Shank over Cucumber Salad Shrimp and Pork Shanghai Style Wontons Peking Duck- the Executive chef was gracious enough to light up the duck to finish it off for a show. (Not sure if this is always the case but the duck is 100 % worth ordering regardless.) XO Stir-Fried Seafood- Shrimp, Scallops, and Squid Filet of Beef with Scallions Beef Chow Fun Milk Tea Tiramisu It's a nice experience for anyone looking for a special occasion or a nice lunch/dinner. Some of the pictures are darker than I would want but I didn't want to disturb the ambiance when they dimmed the lights more during the later hours.

Moli is the best!! Management has done an amazing job of taking care of us and the food could not be better!! By far the best dining experience on Greenwich Ave!

You like a Greenwich scene with upscale Chinese food? If you do, this place is that spot. The scene and Greenwich crowd makes you feel like you walked into the Hedge Fund world with club music in the background. This is a scene right out of, 'Billions'. It feels like that...a reminder you are in one of the financial centers of the world. The food was great. Go with the Szechuan chili wontons and the Moli Peking Duck, with a table side carving and show. The Peking duck is not traditionally served but it's excellent anyway. Pork bao buns were great and the service here was impeccable. Highly recommend this place and would go again for the experience and solid food.

I wish I would have known about the Moli Restaurant sooner. You definitely need a reservation or you may be stuck at the bar with the rest of people without reservations. The ambiance was very relaxing with a nice vibe and great music playing in the background. The cocktails were prepared by mixologist that took their time to master it. I am not an alcoholic but I know an awesome cocktail when I taste it. We ordered several cocktails, the Moli Moli, Tang Dynasty, Magic City and another drink but I can't remember. All of the drinks were prepared to perfection and had a nice kick to it. Only advice is have a designated driver. The food menu was interesting it took us awhile to narrow it down. We started with the Honey walnut shrimp and the lobster dumplings. I had honey walnut shrimp before but this one was the best. The lobster dumplings were made with seaweed and it was delicious. For the entrees we ordered the kung pao chicken, duck fried rice, a shrimp and scallop dish and a fish dish. All of the food was well prepared and extremely tasty. All I could say is WOW!!!! The wait staff was excellent, they don't rush you while you are trying to get your order together. They also allow you to sit without putting the check on the table before you request it. The Moli restaurant is absolutely worth the trip especially if you love great food paired with awesome cocktails.

We celebrated my girlfriend's birthday at Moli, and it was an unforgettable experience! The ambience is outstanding--charming and inviting, making it perfect for a special occasion. The food was exceptional, both in flavor and presentation. We enjoyed the tuna tartare, the rainbow soup sampling, the Peking duck, and stir-fried seafood, all of which were cooked to perfection and beautifully plated. Each dish was bursting with flavor, showcasing the chef's skill and attention to detail. The service was attentive without being intrusive, adding to the overall great experience. Highly recommend Moli for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience!

Ordered the shishito peppers, garlic potatoes, ribeye, fried rice, and flat noodle dish. My table finished everything! It was tasty, well seasoned, and I enjoyed the timing of the dishes coming out. Service was very attentive and you definitely get an elevated level of service. Ambiance is absolutely beautiful. The place is gorgeous and it's a great place to go for lunch or dinner.

I was just here and I had to come back. I was craving and dreaming of this food. This time we got to sit upstairs at a little balcony overlooking the ground floor, which was perfect because I am extremely nosy. Again, I can't say enough about how beautiful this restaurant is, it feels very special to be there. Everything is elegant and just perfect, including the glassware and place settings. Today it was our pleasure to have Osvin take care of us. I am blown away by this exceptional young man. He is so groomed and neat, so collected, and crisp. His knowledge of the menu is impeccable and the way he carries himself and explains things epitomizes what excellent service looks like. I hope if you go there, you are lucky enough to be at his tables. In my opinion he should be in management. Our food was just wonderful, we truly enjoyed everything we ordered. Grilled calamari, pork bao, crispy eggplant, duck spring rolls, and for our main course we hadPepper filet mignon, traditional beef and broccoli as well as Miso Cod. All were mouthwatering. I can't wait to go back.

My dear husband surprised me for a date night at Moli shortly after they opened and what a lovely surprise. Like many others have reviewed, the vibe is 12/10. Unique, sophisticated, fusion in the best way imaginable. The decor is loud, screaming old luxury yet somehow in a rather elegant way. It's old Shanghai but not the Shanghai in my memory. It's the Shanghai in Greenwich, again in the best way possible. The night scene was really enjoyable for an intimate date night. The music turned to house at the end of our dinner which gave out a Buddakan vibe. Saw a local mom group, a girls night out, and seemingly family group and maybe a business dinner, all in perfect harmony. We ordered a few cocktails and I remember the signature one was in such a lovely presentation. It was served in a tea pot, beautiful china. Ordered the Peking duck and some other dish. 8/10. Above expectation. Food seems to be less important when you are in such a good mood and perfect company. We came back some other time. Lunch was more chilled. The only reason for 4/5 was because of an event we came on a weekend. It was hosted on the second floor, not very well organized/ managed. They ran out of food super fast and the food served at the event was sadly subpar and more like a takeout.

We walked past this elegant restaurant for months before booking a four top for a Sunday evening in June. Our reservation was honored, but the first table we were offered was really a three top, and we had a short wait before we were shown to a larger table upstairs. Suitably ensconced we ordered drinks. DG's Suntory Highball was pricey at $23, but my Moli Moli seemed generous at $18. La Portena's Riesling worked as did the feinschmeker's tequila based cocktail. Although we overheard another patron grumbling about a delay, our meal was well timed. Assorted Soup dumplings were a disappointment, we each had one, and they were not soupy enough. The dumplings in chili sauce were moist and flavorful. They could have been spicier, but it's Greenwich. Eggplant was the killer app, with a nice crunch. Honey walnut shrimp were fresh and light, not cloying. The mains all pleased. A half Peking duck was notable for the crepe wrappers, more elegant than the usual moo shu style pancakes. Seved as a two course presentation with the duck meat, vegetables, and egg to follow. Miso cod in a clay pot was unctuous and savory. Branzino, crisp and simple. The four season string beans were fresh and well seasoned, a good value. We didn't have room for dessert. Unfortunately, the tiramisu comes already plated and couldn't be served to go. There's always next time.

This has such a dramatic setting. The ambience is elegant and fun. We all enjoyed different versions of the lo mein. But the highlight was this fabulous white chocolate dessert that came artistically as an egg. Our waitress was wonderful. The outdoor seating is a great compliment on an ice spring day. But inside is also very airy and festive. Even though I wasn't part of it, the bar scene looked very fun and lively. This is a great place for a first date.

Wow! This place is amazing. My dinner partner had had this on his radar for quite some time, and I was thrilled to accompany him on his maiden voyage! There's a really great visual vibe with the decor and the seating. We were at a table for two, towards the back. Minus half a star due to the loud house music blasting at the front of the restaurant. (Why do places do that? It just forces people to yell at each other! That's not fun.) Of course we had to try the Peking Duck and it did not disappoint. Very moist with wonderful accompaniments. Even the pancakes to roll the duck were delicious (we ordered an extra set of these after dinner, to pack up with our leftovers.) And let's not forget the hot shrimp appetizer. I think it stole the show! I'd go back just for that. So fresh. So tasty. And not overly sweet (like so many places do to cover up the lack of freshness.) My only criticism (besides the loud music) was the service. It was OVER-intrusive. Or should I say, the server was quite intrusive. She interrupted us several times (twice, at two different times, just to ask each of us how we liked the Peking Duck...first she interrupted to ask me, then she interrupted AGAIN to ask my partner after he started eating his meal.) Really?? She must've interrupted our conversation no fewer than 7 times during our dinner. It was almost like she was lonely and wanted to be part of our conversation. Very odd and very annoying. Minus the other half of a star. Moli, if you're reading this, I'm coming back to try this again. But please lower the volume on the music, and have a conversation with your server. We absolutely appreciate the hard work she does, and would never want to appear rude (which we weren't). But we also work hard and my dinner partner and I looked forward to catching up with each other. We'd carved out time for this special (pricey) break in our week. To have one-on-one time together and to share a meal together...with each other. Not to have a threesome. Ya?

Moli is by far the most elegant Chinese restaurant I've ever been to! The dining room was so glamorous, and I loved the 1940s Shanghai theme - truly one of a kind. The food was delicious, and the filet mignon was especially tender. I tried a fantastic non-alcoholic rosé that was recommended by the manager, which was so kind of them! It's not often you can find a fine-dining experience for Chinese restaurants, and it was a treat to dine here.

Fun restaurant. It's a semi clubby atmosphere with an absolutely beautiful bar. The food overall is good but leaves a bit to be desired for the pricing. Drinks are expensive but they do get the job done. We ordered all the desserts on the menu and none left us amazed. Overall, I think it's a fun place to visit if you have friends from out of town but it's not a place to impress clients. The duck fried rice was my favorite thing on the menu.

Chose to come to this restaurant based on Yelp reviews and also I loved the name of the restaurant (Jasmine flower). The vibe (I agree with a previous reviewer) was a 12/10: sophisticated, discreet, yet also a little whimsical. The service was impeccable (I've worked at a super upscale classic restaurant in NYC). The food was super-delicious. I would say the portions are perfect. We ordered too much food, and had a lot to take home (the take home bag was also stunning). Yes, I gave a 5 star rating. I would say, the one thing I didn't think was ideal was just how pricey everything was - but it was an upscale experience, yet not stuffy, and the noise level was great (I'm sensitive to noise levels). I hope all the servers and cooks are well-paid. They really make the experience special.

Met my son here last night for dinner. Really nice place as soon as you walk in. High end Chinese restaurant. Really decorated nicely nice. Little slow with service to start but very comfortable seating. Started with half duck. For the price i would have thought they would do table-side. Kinds placed in middle of table. Was moist and cooked good. Soup dumplings were fresh. Didn't blow me away Pork dumplings were really tasty and toasted nicely But the best app was walnut shrimp was so amazing omg wanted to order more of it. Crispy with walnut sauce and walnuts. My son and i shared a kung pao chicken and we loved it. Sweet but still spicy. Peanuts toasted. Yum. Chicken and broccoli was really good. Chicken was so tender. Wife had coconut braised short ribs. She loved it but was tiny We shared duck and chicken fried rice. All the rices were nice and light fluffy and not greasy. Also had vegetable lo mein which was not over sauced or too oily We all lived our dishes but it was very over priced for what we got Parking is a hassle only meters Food is good Service ok Prices high

The atmosphere was beautiful here! Food was very delicious. Although I feel like you're just having expensive Chinese take out food. It is Greenwich after all so it makes sense. I got a walnut shrimp dish that only came with like 3-4 shrimps when I can get a whole platter in Chinatown for less of the cost. It was a great experience though nonetheless. Definitely a spot to go to for a celebration or date night. We got lo mein, lobster, walnut shrimp, hot chili oil dumplings and fried rice.

All I can say is wow. If you have a chance to visit this sleek, sexy and stunning spot- pop on some stylish threads and get ready to experience the vibe that is MOLI. Must try! MŌLÌ's Tableside Peking Duck! And the MŌLÌ MŌLÌ- lemongrass infused gin, Shochu, coconut, pandan, ginger. It's a house favorite. MŌLÌ, which translates to white Jasmine flower in Chinese, offers a premium cocktail experience along with an elevated twist on contemporary Chinese cuisine for lunch and dinner. Pronounced Mô Lì in Chinese, the restaurant's name has symbolic meanings in Chinese culture and is commonly found in many areas of everyday life. The nostalgic atmosphere was designed by Chen and Dong to represent the Western influence in Shanghai, China during the 1940's. Think elevated twist on contemporary Chinese cuisine for lunch, dinner and private events alongside a speakeasy style cocktail bar. This is K Dong and Chef Steven Chen's third Connecticut restaurant at 253 Greenwich Avenue. This will be their fifth restaurant concept in the Tri-State Area. I met Sommelier Isaiah Levy who is leading their top-notch wine program that offers a variety of exclusive bottles in addition to quality selections that pair well with the restaurant's unique cuisine. Their speakeasy-style bar (@barmoligreenwich) is led by MOLI's beverage director, Anthony Carerra, formerly with Peak at Hudson Yards. Carerra has created a one-of-a-kind menu designed to celebrate molecular mixology using all handcrafted ingredients and impurity-free ice. We had an amazing first time experience!

Last night we had the pleasure of dining at Moli in Greenwich, CT. I have heard so much about this restaurant. Oh boy! What big disappointment this restaurant turned out to be! We were truly impressed by the decor and the ambiance. The food generally tasted good but the service was just mediocre. We ordered Moli Moli and magic city for drinks, oysters, satay wagyu (which was delicious), rainbow soup dumplings, corriander lamb chops, miso cod clay pot, Peking duck fried rice, jasmine gelato and jasmine mousse cake. So this is how our evening went 1. We ordered drinks. My husband's drink came very late, much later than mine. In fact his came after the second appetizer was served! 2. Our plates were taken away in between the appetizers and we were told that they will bring us clean plates. Well the plates never came. 3. My husband ordered lamb chops. They brought the fork but not the knife. Wonder how can you eat lamb chops without knife 4. I wanted a second drink. They gave us the cocktail menu but didn't bother to come back to take our order. We had to flag them down and the drink arrived when I was almost done with my main course. 4. My black pot cod had a bone in it. I am used to having fish with bones so did not make a big deal about it. But I am pretty sure this is not how cod is served in a fancy restaurant! 5. We asked for dessert menu and they gave us two different menus. When we asked them about which one to use, they acknowledged that they provided an old menu. 6. When the check arrived I noticed that they had double charged us for rice. Imagine paying $56 for fried rice! Overall I would say the food was good but the service was horrible. If you claim to be fine dining make sure you check all the boxes!

Food was great Service was mediocre which shouldn't be at this price point Ambiance was poor...the table across from us was louder than our table They charged $24 dollars for a martini when the gin was listed at $17 And their suggested tips are on total not pre tax price So a rip off

We had an amazing dinner here. Let me start off by saying this place is absolutely gorgeous! Visually it is one of the prettiest restaurants out there. Very grand and perfect for a romantic dinner or celebration. The food was fantastic and the service was superb. We were very lucky to have Freddy as our server and he was incredibly attentive and gave us some wonderful recommendations that we were so happy to have listened. So not have too many pictures as we were too busy enjoying the food to remember to snap a picture. Oh and the drink in the teapot is one of the best I have ever had. Cannot wait to go back!

The ambiance and service are easily a 10/10. The interior is stunning, and our server was very attentive. We tried a couple of the dim sum appetizers, but my favorite appetizer by far was the crispy eggplant. The lobster tempura was what I was most excited for and honestly it was just okay. The star of the show was the miso glazed cod. It was served in a clay pot with mushrooms and bok choy, and without a doubt I'd say it's one of my favorite dishes I've ever had. We were celebrating a birthday and they brought out a complimentary ice cream that was so simple but honestly to die for. It had a light jasmine flavor and we devoured it. We finished off with the tiramisu which was pretty good. Cocktails were unique and delicious! I'd highly recommend Moli for a date night or special occasion.

I decided to give Moli a try for the first time on my birthday , wrong thing to do. I dine pretty well and frequent this place was giving a "Tao" replica . I get the ambiance and look they are going for but... There were 3 people in my party , first they sat us in the front room away from the other tables lol. I'm not even going to touch on that subject as far as what I think. Second it's so darn loud and dark in there , too much . It took 25 mins for our waitress to come to the table. The food was alright . Not impressed . For apps we ordered yellowtail crudo and shrimp truffle dumplings. The dumplings had a funny taste , according to our waitress the owner or whoever told her to tell us that's how it taste ... like .... The dumplings had too many flavors going on , not a good mix. Next the entrees we ordered broccoli which was cold and looked old . Some scallop and shrimp dish , the scallops were sliced thin , why are you not putting whole chunky scallops in the dish it's Greenwich ! lol I expect top quality food . We also had this shrimp and asparagus dish , I don't even remember how it was honestly nothing spectacular. I ordered a cocktail the server comes over as if he's going to light the drink on fire or do some cool stuff , he sprays lavender on my glass! . Seems to me like corners are being cut all for this "look" lol. The food presentation was unappealing. I was over it ! The manager was checking in on every table and bar attendees but not us lol. I received a birthday surprise , blah. The experience wasn't it . The menu options don't flow and aren't well crafted . They have some work to do !

The place is very pretty. The food is spotty. The staff is sorely lacking in training, from the icy hostesses to the waitstaff. None of the employees seemed the least bit pleased to be there. There was no Maitre D' walking around to check on customers, although there was a gentleman there who periodically passed through successfully avoiding eye contact with everyone. The service was inept - our waitress gave us one incorrect dish and omitted another entirely. The busser attempted to remove our drinks and then our plates before we were done with them. Overall the experience can best be described as unpleasant, which is particularly unfortunate considering the prices.

Went for a late Valentine's Day celebration (the day after, on Feb 15th) and had a lovely experience. Expectations were high based on what friends had said and posted, and was not disappointed. Ambiance is top notch; feels very high end and impressive, definitely unique. The 5-star rating is our overall impression, based on the ambiance, service, and cocktails. It's really the only place of its kind in Greenwich, and price point felt appropriate for what we received, unlike so many other restaurants on the Avenue in Greenwich (feels like so many other restaurants overcharge without offering anything special). For food, we had the rainbow soup dumplings, the Peking duck, and the Taiwan lo mein. The soup dumplings were good but were perhaps trying too hard; the best was the pork, which is after all the traditional. The Peking duck was executed extremely well; have been to other places that can't pull this off, but Moli delivered here. The Taiwan lo mein was just alright, but still good. Wouldn't call it mediocre, but not special either. So though we'd likely only give it 4 stars based on the food alone, the overall experience was certainly 5 stars.

The food was amazing especially the pork spring rolls, the server was extremely attentive and the restaurant was very beautiful. We had a great girls night here but I also think it would be perfect for a special date.

What a wonderful meal we had! The food and service was impeccable! We really enjoyed celebrating my girlfriend's birthday here. We were looking for a place which would be different and Molí hit on all levels. The restaurant is just beautiful. As you walk in the have a beautiful bar area which really makes you want to slide up into the bar. As you walk into the dining room, your eyes are immediately drawn to the huge chandelier in the center of the restaurant. They have a 2nd floor dining area but we did not go up there. For our appetizer my girlfriend had the Peking duck spring rolls and I had the crispy eggplant. Both appetizers were good but my eggplant was outrageously good. It was so crispy and so garlicky. I loved it. For our entrees I had the seafood stir fry which was good. Great flavor to it. My girlfriend had the clay pot cod which she just loved. The cod was so tender and served with bok choy and mushrooms. To finish the meal we had a jasmine mousse cake which was the perfect way to end our meal. Definitely elevated Chinese food!

Attentive service, delicious food and beautiful ambience. We'd recommend a bit more lighting as it can get too dark and also was house music, but overall a great experience.

Really beautiful restaurant with mediocre Chinese food. Same owner as Miku and Hinoki where the food is excellent, so I don't know what went wrong here.

We ordered 2 appetizers, 2 main dishes and a drink. Lobster dumpling; I didn't like it, it smelled fishy to me, but they had big lobster chunks in them, Ribs appetizer, it was good. Main dishes we ordered Lobster & shrimp and Filet Mignon, they were both very good, good souse, very tasty! Our first waiter was a very nice Colombian gentleman we liked him, he gave us a nice cute table and we had a nice conversation with him. For some reason they replaced our waiter with this weird RUDE guy, he was rushing us to be done QUICKLY, while the whole place was almost empty ( 4.30pm) he was keep touching my chop sticks, rearranging our table, taking our plates away while we are still chewing, he was clearly rushing us out. When we were asking questions, he was answering rudely, for example main lobster dish; some of the lobster chunks came in shell and we couldn't take them out of their hard shells and we asked from him a "lobster cracker", he rudely said he doesn't understand what we want, we explained to him lobsters shells are hard and we can't take out the meat,He shrugged and said "use the chop sticks!! " and walked away. We tried the chop sticks and they get broken, we couldn't get the Lobster meat out of the claws. We paid 46$ for this dish and a lots of lobster meat stayed in the shells to go to garbage, i am disappointed! Several times we asked from him, a thin fork or a lobster cracker and he rudely denied us! Basically we couldn't eat all of our dish! He was the only rude one and he ruined this experience for us.. Filet Mignon was great, both of the main dishes tasted great! I took 2 stars off for rude, very bad server. Another star off for, next to the main dishes there is nothing, they have to give some rice, their souses are really good you need that rice :). So we asked for rice side dish, they charged extra $4 for a dry tiny bowl of rice, while we are still eating the rude waiter took one of the rice bowl away, it was still full of rice in it, my husband was still eating it!. Decoration is really very beautiful, main dishes and the moli moli drink was great but it came half cup empty :) Our first waiter (sorry we don't know their names Colombian vegetarian) gentleman was really very nice but the replacement guy really ruined for us, also there was a really nice lady who get us the rice she was really sweet too. Would we go again? Probably not! We didn't like the way their very rude waiter treated us, rushed us out and because of him, i couldn't eat all my lobster.

The restaurant was really busy considering it's a weekday (Wednesday) night but still was able to provide good service. The servers were very attentive. They have good food. A little pricey but still reasonable. I loved the ambience most of all. It felt like I was in a restaurant in NYC.

Probably one of the worst places I've ever dined the waitress spilled water all over our table, and the manager misbehaved when talking to them. Food is below average I would never visit this place again

We've lived in Greenwich for nearly 50 years and seen this venue go through many permutations. This one, by far, is the best. The ambiance is beautiful and upscale. The food is tops. Wonderful. The crispy eggplant is worth a try. We also loved the honey walnut shrimp and the Peking duck spring rolls. Drinks were yummy and service excellent. Above all, we could actually hear our conversation with each other. Expect to pay for the experience, but we will definitely be back.

Delicious cuisine! Enjoyed a girls' night out, though a tad noisy, everything else was flawless. Service was also commendable.

WOW! Great ambiance, great service and amazing food! Started off the night with an amazing cocktail - Red lantern, recommend by beverage director, Anthony. Our waiter was friendly and very attentive. Started our order off with the honey walnut shrimp and satay wagyu. Both delicious appetizers! The dish I will come back for again and again is the Peking Duck ! Crispy on the outside and soft inside, this is the best duck I've ever had! Recommend getting fried rice to combine with veggies and thin pancakes. Overall great experience at Moli! Will be back again soon!

The service was awful last night. We ordered two cocktails and only one came. We had to flag down the waiter who has forgotten (fine mistakes happen)! Then we ordered two entrees and one entree NEVER CAME. We wound up cancelling it with a random other waiter that was walking by. We've been a few times and the food is decent, but this was embarrassing.

Hosts led us to our table; maitre'd barely nodded. The upstairs is pretty but it can be quite loud and somewhat tight. As a relatively new venue it was bustling. Food was good (miso cod) but not great (neither the duck rolls nor Peking). Service was filled with very pleasant but poorly trained servers. Based on this experience, given the price and competition, I would hope they improve or, like the last 5 in this space, they may not fill it for very long. I suggest giving it a try as I will at least once again.

This restaurant is beyond gorgeous. It has a murder on the orient express vibe and smells like the Westins green tea soap. The food was really good. I had the chicken with broccoli. It was light and quality meat. I also had the veggie fried rice which was amazing. Not greasy. The food came out quickly and the service was good.

Beautiful restaurant, great atmosphere, friendly staff, the duck was delicious! Beef chow mein and seafood stir fry also great! Would definitely visit again.

Great food and a very cool vibe. Most of the restaurants in Greenwich are filled with older people, but Moli has a very cool young crowd.

Excellent food and service. Went for my anniversary and was treated with a lovely glass of champagne on the house, very thoughtful. I will be back

I recently dined at this restaurant to celebrate my mother's birthday and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience due to the behavior of our server. The server approached us aggressively, rudely asking if we spoke Spanish after noticing my mother's accent. Despite our preference to speak English, he continued to address us in Spanish, creating a very uncomfortable atmosphere. Additionally, he questioned whether we were sharing a small appetizer with an unpleasant tone, which felt belittling. This poor service overshadowed what should have been a special occasion, and it is disheartening to see such a lack of respect and professionalism. We hope this feedback leads to improvements in customer service training.

FOOD- 3, nice presentation, average at best. Ambiance 5- Very pretty place Service- 2- SLOW, messed up order, 3 or the 6 of our dinners Waiters were very sad, did not smile, did not ask "how is everything" We dropped $400 and not an offer of the happy birthday or a cordial (not that so need it but the gesture would've been nice. Again dropped a significant amount of money bought bottles of wine, order tons of food and not even a manager to come over and look at the table. on it Not a well run place!!!!

Love the food...However, can't get a seat at the bar because the managers are always there on their laptops. Not conducive to bringing clients for a drink.

Not a great restaurant. The food is alright to good, but never exceptional. And at this price point it truly ought to be. I have been living in San Francisco for many years so maybe I'm just spoiled but I can readily find similar quality food for half (or less) the price. The opulent interior and cold wait staff are at odds with one another. During our dinner the entirety of the wait staff never smiled or showed any warmth to our table whatsoever. At one point we caught a server smiling while cracking a joke behind the bar and our table cheered to finally see someone having a good time. The owner talks a big game about hospitality (hah!) and yet this was one of the least hospitable, least friendly, and cold restaurant experiences I've ever had.
