Just to be fair, we've been regular patrons for about a year. We are in love with the ginger salad, shrimp skewers & pork pot stickers (sautéed, not fried). What's more is that these are all on the happy hour menu till 7:00 pm, so it is really affordable. The service is always good, and they have a large deck for outdoor dining. How could we not keep coming back? The only criticism I could have is that it is always cold when the AC is running, so dress warmly!
