"Come inside this pretty restaurant in the heart of St-Germain-des-Prés to enjoy light and fragrant Cantonese cuisine, with a few detours to the territory of Southeast Asia: the obligatory dim sum, steamed fish, spicy beef or lok lak. Lovely presentation and good ingredients: a real ambassador for Chinese food." - Michelin Inspector

Some of the items were great, while other items were not so much. Had the chance to try a couple dumplings, beef, red curry, fried rice and noodle. I would definitely recommend the chicken dumpling - savoury and melts in your mouth. Also the beef dish, although not as good as it use to be. The other dishes were okay, but nothing to be excited for. Would recommend only if you’ve been looking forward to eat here - other than that, maybe a pass.

The best of the best, delicious food, meat literally melts in your mouth, and staff extremely helpful and friendly! I highly recommend Lu Sun Jiao (chicken and green asparagus dumplings, Chao Bo Cai (Spinach peanut soy sauce), Ye Nai Ga Li (spicy red curry coconut milk with duck), Ya Song (finely chipped duck hoisin sauce and mandarin pancakes), Loc Lac Beef (spicy beef filet Taokan style) and for dessert Xiang Jiao (crispy toffee banana) with coconut ice cream.

The food is delicious and the atmosphere is great. I enjoyed the chicken and vermicelli soup the most, even though everything else (dim sum, edamame, kung pao chicken, rice) was also very yummy. They were pretty busy tonight and still provided great customer service. Will come back when visit Paris again.

Food is too expensive for super small dimsum. Their fried rice was definitely not made Asian style.

Good good but but cold environment without personality, even knowing this could be seen as typical Asian. Also no fixed heaters. Food is good though

Amazing service, the staff are very kind! Succulent and flavorful food and definitely worth the price. Would recommend the dinner special tasting menu. 10/10!!

I accidentally stumbled upon this restaurant and had a very good experience! The atmosphere was calm, and the service was very good. The food is pretty tasty and is not too heavy, which was nice. However, the prices were quite expensive for common dishes. Overall, I would still recommend this place and will happily return myself!

This is a trendy Asian Fusion restaurant. Very modern setting and deep menu with some US favorites. The steamed and fried dumplings are the best.

One of my favourite restaurant. Chinese, fashion, trendy style and for once the staff are nice and kind. Everything is good here. Dim sum are great, but try soups too. The atmosphere is chic but cool. The food is great, a bit expensive but you pay for quality. Booking is best if you don't want to wait. People are regulars here.

Fancy exterior, pretentious attitude but mostly: not good at all! The chicken was either frozen or microwaved (last week), either way it was beyond the realm of taste and texture. The filet de boeuf was chewy, the whole experience overpriced: over €180 for three people, three main courses, one appetizer and one bottle of wine, all of which were far less than our expectations, will not repeat! Oh yes, as I went to the bathroom the waiter followed me inside to tell me that he had his cellphone in there?! Ok, I will not steal your cell phone then waiter, doubtful that I could get even half of what I lost on the dinner back even if I did...

Thoroughly enjoyed this place! Food, service and decor was on point, but definitely on the pricier side. Peter was the best waiter who had the best wine parings. We wanted to come back before we left Paris but figure we should eat some more authentic Parisan food.

We went there because it is supposed to be the new dim-sum king of the left bank but ironically we found everything great... except the dim-suns, which were very ordinary (not bad, but you could barely tell them apart from each other, and from other Chinese restaurants). This let-down aside, the decor is nice, service is OK, the crispy chicken spring roll was flavorful (lots of cilantro), I loved my Peking sauteed raviolis. And the "coconut pearls" for dessert were exceptionally good (fresh and flavorful). Too bad I didn't know about the boring dim-suns, I would have tried more main dishes. Some sounded promising. I would happily come back, but no dim-suns for me.

Nice attempt at the Chef Especial but not worth the money. Flavor is off on the dumplings and they are not fresh. Chinatown has better dumplings. Beautiful restaurant and very nice staff. The dessert with the coconut sticky rice and mango is to die for

Not cheap. But decent place for well presented classics. If you are a local Saint Germanie or a ( no doubt) tourist you might come back. Others will find just as good ( if not bette) down the street.

Stumbled upon this place by chance. Hostess was one of the nicest people I've ever met. They accommodated my friend and I last minute. Food was tremendous -- ordered special dish Kung Pao Chicken and fried rice. Having tried this kind of food all around the world, I can truly say this was one of the best preparations I've ever had. Rice was lightly fried and not at all oily or heavy; chicken was not deep fried but so flavorful and unique. My friend is strict vegetarian and she found plenty of options. Highly recommended!

Very sexy atmosphere with great service and food! I loved that they have an English menu. My mother and I had the xiao long bao and hao ko dim sum which was delicious. The service was exceptional, very attentive and friendly. Also, for dessert we couldn't decide whether to get the coconut ball or the chocolate coconut ball and they gave us 2 of each. Would definitely recommend this place for others looking for chic Asian cuisine.

Mediocre, pretentious, expensive. The waiter hovered and try to take our plates before we finished the tiny portions.
