Ambiance is very shiek with tall ceilings and gorgeous chandaliers. Edamame dumplings were okay; sauce was exceptional and dumplings were a bit dense. Got the black pepper steak and thought the portion was good, they mix in fried rice basted In the same pepper colored sauce so it looks like you're getting twice the rib eye - well played chef, well played. That being said, the portion was plenty for 2 people and was cooked medium rare.

Smoked sea bass was exceptional. Oxtail dumplings also great.

Wine menu has a 3x markup on average --- A bit steep but you can find some things for 2.3x markup.

The dessert cocktail with Catskills honey whisky is delightful.
