"I had such a wonderful experience! I am not certain if reservations are required, but I made them. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The live acoustic jazz was giving life to everyone present. The food was good except for one appetizer and how the food was delivered. While eating my appetizer, with the plates on the table, the server came to serve our entree and then became upset with us because there was nowhere to place the plates. Our waiter was very knowledgeable of the menu and gave excellent recommendations. More importantly, let's not forget the complimentary table massage. While sitting down and waiting to be served, a young lady (staff member) came over and asked if I would like a massage. Her hands were a gift from above. The tension in my shoulders was relieved instantly, and along with the good food I was ready for bed by the time I left. Top tier 10/10"

"I have had this spot on my list of places to check out. I was originally scheduled to dine here in November of 2023 but had to cancel my reservation at the last minute. A friend asked me this week if I would be interested in checking it out on Saturday night. She made us a reservation for 9pm. I used a GPS app to find this place. It did not exactly get me to the restaurant. The GPS told me to turn off Hammod drive onto perimeter center parkway. You should continue on Hammond drive. Louisiana Bistreaux Seafood will be on your left on the corner. Yao is next door. Keep driving and the parking garage is on the left. The garage is free for 2 hours. When we walked in we were immediately seated. Our server was Pao. He recommended drinks and food items to try. I ordered still water and the octopus. My friend ordered an alcoholic drink and the crab wontons to start. The wontons arrived quickly as did the drink. However, the octopus took a very long time to come out. My friend had finished her appetizer prior to the octopus arriving . For entrees I ordered the crab fried rice and my friend ordered the Mongolian beef. I thought the crab wontons and octopus were average. I would not have to order either app again. My entree was terrible! Our server said it was one of the top selling items! It was bland and just not good. I had to ask for a sauce to make it edible. My friend said she did enjoy her beef entree. I hate to say this, but the water was the best item for me! Service was ok- nothing special, honestly a little slow. I did enjoy the live music and the massage. ( it says they are complimentary but expect to tip). Overall I spent $88 for dinner and a 3-4 minute massage. NOT WORTH IT! NOTE: gratuity is included on all checks NOTE: the kitchen closes at 10pm on Saturday night."

"We weren't impressed. 1st strike they didn't have the masseuse working, they advertise having someone give massages while you wait for your food but because of holiday they weren't available. This was the main reason we went. 2nd strike they were out of pork Belly. 3rd strike the server separated our ticket wrong! What they did well, the food was good. My first time having Pai Tai, my only complaint the shrimp needed to be seasoned. The salt and pepper shrimp was really good. My sister added a lobster and it wasn't seasoned. For $25 extra it should have been perfect. The octopus was tasty but too small. The snapper was delicious!! But for the portion was not worth $65!! The wonton was delicious but cold. My dumplings were good too but they only gave us 3. My hubby ordered the Mongolian beef, the portion was really small but it was good. The Mai Tai was great! The other drink was not strong expensive and small. The ice cream presentation was awesome but the ice cream is nasty!! It's very thick! The live was music was Amazing! We really enjoyed the ambiance. The decor was really nice. The server didn't check on us, we had to flag her down. This place was a 45 min drive for us so I wouldn't go out of the way to go back. To find it, if you're passing the mall it's the building next to state farm. It's free parking up to 2 hours."

"Came here for a date nite and enjoyed it! Live band, free back massage, and incredible building layout! Our waiter was so busy that he really couldn’t focus a lot of attention on us. All of our food came out at once. The appetizer and our entrees. We had to constantly ask for water and soda refills. The food was delicious never the less. Just wish they had more staff. We received champagne upon entrance."

"The food was so so good! I was really impressed that everything we ordered was a hit! The service was really outstanding. The food came out very quickly. There was a live band playing and it really brought the atmosphere to life. I’m looking forward to going back soon!"
