One of my new favorite spots in uptown Austin. Food, service, and ambiance were all spot on. The most notable dishes were the 36hr ribs, which were fall off the bone tender and absolutely delicious, and the pecking duck and shrimp fried rice which was a unique and complex dish. Our server, Cale, did a great job with both recommendations and general service. We sat outside, and despite it being freezing, their covered patio was very comfortable with plenty of fire pits and heaters to keep us warm. Overall, I highly recommend and will definitely be back!
