“We had a great experience. From the time we walked in til the time we walked out. The manager was at the door greeting all customers making them feel warm and appreciated. Our bartender was very welcoming and she also made the bomb hibiscus margaritas. We also shared a plate of their sweet and sour chicken that comes with a side of Jasmine rice recommended by the bartender. Food was fresh authentic and very delicious. We ordered spring rolls to go they were also delicious. We will definitely be coming back. Thank you for the great experience Peterboro family”
“Had a great dinner with friends! Staff was amazing including our server Meghan. Everyone was welcoming. Fun atmosphere! Everything we ordered was delicious.... Cheeseburger spring rolls, crab rangoon, chicken wontons and sesame chicken. I would definitely go here again. Meantime (beer bar) connected to restaurant so went there for a drink afterward.”
“We came here for dinner after a show nearby. From the outside, the place looked very inviting, which is what made us decide to try it. The bar area is very eye-catching, with a full bar and a wide selection of drinks. The interior design around the bar stands out and is clearly visible from outside, making the restaurant look lively and appealing. As for the food, it was just okay. The restaurant describes itself as fusion Chinese, but it felt more like dishes created by someone imagining what Chinese food might taste like rather than someone deeply familiar with it. The beef and broccoli had an overpowering garlic flavor, and the minced garlic didn’t seem very fresh because it had a slight sourness. The sauce was also overly salty, and the beef itself was quite tough. The orange chicken was better. The sauce had a pleasant citrusy orange flavor, and the sweetness of the baby corn paired nicely with it. We also ordered the fried chicken bao buns as an appetizer. The buns themselves were very soft and nicely steamed, but the overall dish was quite bland. It also included pickles like the kind you’d find in an American hamburger, which didn’t really feel like it belonged there. The sauce tasted like Thousand Island dressing called dragon sauce and was also fairly mild. Overall, this is a fun place with a nice atmosphere where people can gather and enjoy drinks. However, the food itself was just average.”
“I wish I could rate a 5 star but I have to be honest. If I was giving stars based off the appetizers alone it would easily be a 5. Our service was great , and the vibes in here were immaculate - it is well designed. My only “beef” was with the beef and broccoli dish. My beef was inedible I could not chew it it was so tough. I was hoping it was just one or two pieces , no it was very single piece and that is not enjoyable whatsoever. I would never recommend that dish to anyone. But the chicken entrees were great.”
“I loved the ambiance of the outside patio area!! It was beautiful! I came for a birthday dinner party! I had the vegan lo mein with the vegan noodles. The dish looked amazing but the noodles were undercooked, but the staff was so pleasant and offered to remake the dish which I appreciated. The dinner party I came with said the cheesbuger spring rolls were fire!! Also, they loved the chicken wontons and pork dumplings. Some stated the fried rice (shrimp, and the chicken with shrimp) needed more seasoning. They shared that the spicy-garlic noodles was delicious and the beef lo mein was equally as great (add extra beef). The beef and broccoli was delightful as well. One stated the almond chicken was good and the other said the almond chicken (thighs) was okay both said they wanted more meat.”
