    Loved the food! Good service and nice ambience. Fairly quiet, but this was a weeknight when the place was only partially filled, so could be more boisterous on a weekend.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The food was creative and the flavors were excellent. The dining room we ate in was a little noisy, but not unbearable. Overall a very good experience.

    Never been to a restaurant where I couldn’t eat the food. Combination of flavors terrible. Only thing that tasted good was the Carrot Salad (although IMO could have been improved if carrots served warm). Warm appetizers not good: Potato dumplings with duck/pork and scallops in broth could not eat due to poor flavor combination! Husband had seared duck which he asked to be well cooked instead of seared. He thought it was ok, but I did not enjoy. Shrimp toast very average if that. Staff and setting were nice.

    We were excited to try 80T. But a loud obnoxious photographer was seated in our pod and reuined our 36th anniversary celebration. Focus on adding variety to your limited menu.
