Fodor's Review:

This crowded, noisy, ever-vaunted celebrity haunt turns out not Chinese food but rather "world cuisine," and in large portions meant for sharing. Crispy duck with scallion pancakes and caramelized black-vinegar sauce is a nice surprise, as is pork and beans with green apple and balsamic mojo (a garlicky Cuban marinade). Mechanical service delivers the acceptable broccoli-rabe dumpling starter, the wild mushroom pasta entrée, or the flash-fried crispy spinach that shatters like a good martini glass thrown into a fireplace. Unless you're a frequent celebrity diner, don't expect your drinks to arrive before your food.

Good experience

Posted by rodaxs from Monterrey, Mexico on 2/25/07
Very good food and great variety. Probably expensive for the type of food, but some plates are very well served. Good atmosphere.
