While the interior of this restaurant feels hip and Hong Kong-esque, the food and service do not live up to these standards. Waiting for the meal, we witnessed other tables sending items back to the kitchen, causing us to worry from the start.

We decided not to argue, they came up to us and apologized later (thanks, we did remember our orders as it was a written set in menu). Also, the place is positioning itself as street-food, but it is a restaurant and has...
