Description

This West Harlem venue doubles as a restaurant and event space, drawing crowds for celebratory group dinners and dates. The menu shifts toward specific Asian-fusion plates, featuring options like oxtail dumplings and a shrimp and chicken satay served with a non-traditional sauce. While the service is attentive, keeping up with mocktails and classic drinks, the atmosphere carries a loud volume level and premium pricing that can lead to a steep final bill.
