    We made a reservation here for Christmas Eve, based on a review we saw on the mainland. The special cocktails they served, including the Chr6 Eggnog martini were great. The Pan-Asian food is varied, creative, and delicious. We liked it so much we ordered extra food to go for Christmas lunch. But the portions were generous enough that we also had delicious leftovers. All of the service staff was friendly, even though the service was hectic for the holiday. It's really a surprisingly delightful place.
