Food was really good; classic Cantonese cuisine. Everything we ordered was tasty, and my fave was definitely the sweet and sour pork. It was sooo crispy (but wasn't a fan of the blueberries. That was weird). I also really liked the deep fried whiting fish (not exactly sure what the menu item was called) but it was delicious and I never had fish that way before. They also give you complimentary tong sui which is always yummy :)
Sushi Style

We got take out and it was good! My friend who's had it before said it wasn't as good as it was last time, but for my first time I liked it. The sashimi was super thick, although it was the basic tuna and salmon, nothing unique. The maki were well made and with a thin layer of rice which I love. I hate when places wrap maki with too much rice lol. I recommend the scallopmon roll- it was warm and huge and delicious. Overall a great deal. We split a sashimi & sushi dinner for 2; sushi pizza; and scallopmon roll between 3 people and we had enough leftovers for a 4th person

Really expensive for what you get. The portions have gotten way smaller from when they first opened. I'm not a fan of curry so I got the beef sukiyaki udon/nabe and while it tasted good, for $17 I feel like I should've gotten more toppings like more veggies or mushrooms, not just Napa cabbage and tofu. I did like that they give you an egg and some rice to eat any leftover soup with

I like the concept of individual hot pots, so that people can just order the broth they like. I got the beef brisket as my protein and it was just regular hot pot meat, so no complaints there. The pot ranges from $20-$45 depending on what filling you get (least expensive is vegetarian, most expensive is wagyu) so the beef brisket was mid-$20's which I think is worth it bc I was super full. I also shared takoyaki with my friend, and it was a bit subpar bc it was mostly dough and not too much octopus inside. For drinks I got the smashed lemon black tea which I recommend for anyone who likes HK lemon tea, and my friend got the jasmine matcha latte with raisins. Except it didn't come with raisins so we were disappointed but also secretly not 😂 they also seem to have some nice udon dishes that I might come back to try. Service was really friendly. I didn't like that your clothes smell like kitchen afterwards, so try not to wear anything fancy or non-machine washable.
Pierogi Boys

Definitely best to share a bowl with a friend. I didn't expect each pierogi to be so massive, and considering the heaviness of the filling, I was so full by the end. I preferred the cheese and potato filling over the meat filling (it was literally just meat inside which was kinda boring) and I wonder if they offer pan-fried pierogis too, since I also prefer those. But boiled pierogis were also good; they were super soft
