We came here for dinner on a Thursday evening. The restaurant was hidden behind the Twitter building, and when we were searching for it, we walkd into a little walkway between buildings and find the restaurant. The decor and ambiance is so lovely! Really felt like I had entered this gorgeous Chinese-influenced fantasy-scape with birds flying above our heads in these beautiful birdcage lamps. We got: Har gow Xiaolongbao Matcha lava bun Fried wonton They also served this house blend decaf super floral tea that was hot and comforting to drink. We really enjoyed everything that they served, and had a good dinner here.

Please be aware- the manager is posting false events on eventbrite to get customers into the store. There is about 3-7 slated events to occur at the restaurant. 3 of them so far have proved false. Once you arrive at the restaurant, there is no event, and they hope you stay for food and drinks. This is unfortunate, as it is a great space with a great bartender Mike who also turns up the DJ tables. For this experience alone and finding out they are posting events to simply lure us to purchase food is disgusting. Do not go here

I visited on Sunday for brunch. The place was empty, allowing us to sit anywhere we pleased. The ambience is great - open spaces, couches, interesting decor, and outside patio, etc. The food was excellent and reasonably priced. The cocktails, however, are on the pricier side ($18 per cocktail. Do not order the bottomless mimosas as they are light on alcohol. Other than that, I would recommend this place, especially on weekends if you want a quieter and more private experience.

So lovely.While finding the space isn't intuitive because you have to enter through the lobby of a larger building (and not through an ally way as Google implies)Atmosphere and food were de.lish.ous. absolutely prime.Kind and welcoming service, accomodating team for our stumble in at 1:30am shenanigans and delicious fresh food.If your friends aren't frequenting this spot on the way home, get new friends!Vegetarian friend was delighted by their availabile options while I dug into some protein heavy cuisine classics.Vegetarian options: In the words of my vegetarian hostage, salt and pepper tofu was exquisite.Dietary restrictions: Made fresh, preferences were easily accomodated

This bar is awesome and their drinks are really unique and amazing. I love the ambiance because it's quiet, and a good place to watch sports games. Their bartender is also really friendly and thoughtful.

We attended a surprise birthday party. We were a bit concerned about SAFETY being in the City for this evening event. Parking was quite easy under the building. our fears were eased to see we did not have to walk the streets of SF. This was the perfect venue for a 60th birthday celebration. Music, gambling table, dancing, food. Food offerings were great, but prepared a bit early. We arrived at the start of the party, many of the items (meaning to be warm) eg. Noodles were on the cool side, and some items seemed "air dry" but were still edible. Perhaps the dim sum offerings could have been brought out in small steamed batches and replenished through the evening. It would have been easier to eat more if larger STURDY plates were available,, and more places to sit or standing tables could have been useful. There were a lot of leftovers because it was difficult to stand and eat. Flavors were great, but the food was cold. Cold dim sum.

A cool ambience on Market St with some outdoor seating. Drinks were very expensive and some watered down. The made the wrong drinks several times! Definitely some better, more established, and better ran places nearby. However if you're looking for that instagram-able, overpriced look this is the place for you!

Seriously, a 5 star place. Head here after a show at the Orpheum!It's in an office type building just past the Walgreens and certainly needs better signage. But just after the entrance to the parking garage and the desk you'll see the people drapes and the duck sign above. The food is great and the atmosphere is fantastic.Give it a try. So good.

Only a block away from the Orpheum Theater we decided to give this place a try. The dim sum was very good a bit pricey but understandable considering the location. Nice ambiance and service. I would come back when attending another show at the Orpheum.
