This place has declined. I have visited the city over the years and always ate here. Fly in for a friend’s birthday she had been dying to dine here. She was disappointed in her experience. The food was great but overall the obvience

I went for a group dinner and we tried several appetizers, but I did not get to take any photos. Stand out appetizers included the skewered beef, chicken wings and rice paper shrimp roll. Next time I will try the tuna cigar just for the presentation in the cigar box. Thankfully our server noticed no one ordered crab and mentioned that it was the number one seller and for extra money it can be prepared pre-cracked or de-shelled. That did it. The roast crab was exceptional and served in a delicious butter sauce!! Definitely worth it when half the hard work is done.
