Menu Variety - Good

There are nine choices ranging from $6 to $12. Mostly unique selections. Four of the nine are dumplings, so we would have like to have seen a couple of different non-dumpling options. Good selection of drinks.

Food Quality - Awesome

We had:

• Calamari - $8
• Beijing Fried Dumplings - $6
• Mushroom Fried Spring Rolls - $7
• Homemade Pork and Cabbage Dumplings - $10
• Homemade Shrimp and Zucchini Dumplings - $12
• Space Dust IPA - $6

Another couple joined us and we shared dishes. The food came to the table as it was ready, so there was about a ten minute span between receiving the first dish and the last. Calamari was cut in larger rings (almost looked like onion rings) and lightly breaded.

Service Quality/ Friendliness - Good

This was almost a Meh. We had multiple servers bringing food to us. We ordered some additional dishes which came much slower than the first round. No issues with the servers themselves, they were very pleasant; it was just confusing as to who was supposed to be our primary server.

Noise Level/ Ambience - Good

Noise level registered at 62 decibels. There are two TVs in the bar area with no sound. We didn't notice any music playing, but it was a bit hard to hear normal conversation at times. We sat at a table in the corner of the bar area. Two of us sat in chairs, two on a bench seat. The chairs had a very low back, and we would have preferred something with a backrest. There was a bank of windows which looked out over the Lincoln Square Food Hall area, which added a nice view and some lighting into what was an otherwise dark bar area. Very new, clean and modern look.

Value - Good

Even though the food was awesome, the pricing relative to serving sizes was only good. Put a bit more food on the plate and it becomes awesome.
