    Tamara was an absolutely amazing hostess. I was unable to get in contact with the restaurant to make a last minute update to my reservation and she was beyond accommodating. My aunt has food sensitivities and Tamara addressed the matter with the manager and allowed special arrangements for my aunts needs. The entire evening was great from the time we walked in to the time we walked out. Our servers were great, very attentive. Even the security at the door was polite and helpful. Thank you for making my brother's 40th birthday dinner a delight

    Shan was recommended by a female duo I follow on IG...bklynmavens. The experience surpassed my expectations, every dish was delicious with a bit of spice but not to overwhelm. My dinner companion does not eat meat and our waiter suggested the Dan Dan noodles without pork and it was a home run, she's currently looking up a recipe online to attempt it at home lol. She had the prawn dry pot as well and we both did the happy dance when tasted. I was not disappointed with my duck entree that came with buns, duck was cook to perfection and the sauce was perfect for that meal. We split the coconut cotta dessert, different for us but a welcomed change, tasty yet light. We will definitely return with others to experience Shan. Thank you for the good food and service!
