This place happened to be open on Christmas Day, so my family made a reservation for 7 people at 6pm. It was good thinking to make a reservation because the place was jam-packed, and every table was full with a line of people waiting to be seated. We were seated in about 15 minutes despite the reservation, and even with the staff being so busy, they still did a great job handling our order and requests.
We tried many kinds of dishes from chicken, the Beijing duck (a favorite), soup dumplings, buns, and various veggie dishes (pea shoots $16, Kung pao tofu ~$14, and green beans $12). People really enjoyed the duck and the green veggies, but the soup dumplings were not as soupy as we would have liked. The veggies were actually quite delicious and not too salty which was perfect for our tastes. We also got coconut jelly for dessert ($8 each) which came as literal large coconuts, but instead of filled with coconut juice, they contained a jelly filling consisting of agar-agar. I was not a fan of the texture but other family members enjoyed it.
Overall, pretty decent food (especially the veggie dishes), and although the place was crowded and popular, the staff still did a great job under the pressure.
