I'm sure it's better later in the week, but with only one floor open, it felt like a doctor's waiting room. The staff, from the doorman to the servers, were pretty cold, verging on rude. We asked what cocktails contained mainly vodka, to receive a lecture about how "their cocktails don't generally contain one spirit" in an incredibly patronising manner, which ironically is what makes a cocktail a cocktail, only to turn to page one in the menu to find at least two cocktails with predominantly vodka bases. We left after one drink. All in all, avoid until later in the week when there's actually a vibe.

Honestly the place had changed so much - from scary security to menu and vibe that we sat for one min and left. Long gone are the fun lunar calendar themed cocktails. The big fun bar - gone. It’s just not the special place it used to be. I can’t review the food or drinks because we didn’t stay long enough to try anything - it wasn’t worth climbing all those stairs - and it used to be. No complaints re staff - just doing their job. But the place itself - sad and unloved.

Waiters were super friendly and proposed twists on their regular mixes to accomodate the not sweet at all prerequisite. unfortunately the kitchen was already closed and we had been looking forward to their dim sums...

Overall it was really good. Loved the food and the drinks. The atmosphere was great and the waiter was very attentive. The only negative it’s that both times I’ve been I’ve been given prawn dumplings by accident. This time I ordered bbq dumplings and instead received prawn. My gf ate the prawn as I don’t eat seafood. Other than that, it was really great!😌
