Talk about a FAT Margarita. It was salty (there was a lot of salt on the rim). No reservation needed- my party of 2 was seated right away. Our server was great, all the food came out on time. The sushi was amazing. My partner and I may have ordered too much but we were able to take everything to go including the margarita and a couple extra sauces. When the bill came the server noticed an extra charge and removed it immediately. Would come back again!

I’ve been coming here a lot with my boyfriend when we go to Puerto Rico. We had a cute lunch date today, Valentine’s Day, during Happy Hour (tequila sunrise & beer). We got the tequila sunrise. They serve yummy Asian food. The sushi is fresh and delicious. There’s free parking! Everyone is friendly, and they speak English and Spanish! I recommend coming to the best Asian restaurant in Puerto Rico!!

This restaurant is a Japanese/Chinese fusion. The food was absolutely delicious and one of the best Puerto Rican Chinese food I’ve ever tasted. This definitely tops NYC Chinese food. Highly recommend the orange chicken and sushi. The service was amazing and extremely attentive. Don’t think twice, make sure you stop here for a delicious lunch/dinner.

A hidden Chinese restaurant off the tourist strip offering the most authentic Chinese cuisine in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The Chicken Fried Rice was very good and satisfying. The food is flavorful and delicious. I would definitely recommend!

This place will surprise you, it definitely surprised me and my family! The food and service were amazing! Sushi was fresh, made to order! Drinks were on point, tequila sunrise is a must and not to lie the Pina Colada was one of the best we had in the island, especially after trying the other places around town! You will definitely get your money worth here! 10 out of 10 will be coming back again!!
