Come here for a GREAT martini and delicious meal. The menu changes almost daily according to what is fresh. Recommend for brunch or dinner, just make sure you are prepared to wait a bit for a table.

Not to be confused with the one on 14th street, this is a legit spot to get a cheap and delicious meal. The dumplings are 4 for $1. You can get them to go - 50 for $11 and bring them home to cook!
