"They wouldn't Serve Me ?!?!?!"   My Rating
10 JesseD	Posted on: Sunday, August 02, 2009
	Review: I found this restaurant and was seated politely, but then the staff just wouldn't serve me. I tried to make eye contact and smile several times, but each time they would either just quickly smile and look away, or refuse to make eye contact at all. Meanwhile they served very attentively to the other two tables in the room, and in between times they read fashion magazines (I think) in a large group. I waited for half an hour and then eventually left, at which point they politely pointed me to the front door. I was polite, well dressed and spoke Chinese when I entered, so I can not understand why they wouldn't serve me. I have never experienced anything like it before, in three years of living overseas. The food the other tables got did look excellent, so if you find it and manage to get your order taken, you should get a good meal.   Pros: Nice setting * Nice *looking* food. * Cons: Don't seem to like foreigners (or just m * Hard to find * Expensive

"Make reservation"   My Rating

	Review: Food is good as mentioned, but they have some cosy tables and some uncomfortable ones. Usually the best tables are occupied. So better make a reservation to get one of the good places for enjoying the food 100%   Pros: good food * good price * partly nice interior Cons: partly uncomfortable * *

"Wonderful!"   My Rating
2 Kristoffer	Posted on: Monday, October 22, 2007
	Review: I found this restaurant here on Happycow and decided to take a couple of friends/coulleagues (all of them non-vegetarian) there for saturday lunch. The hotel concegiere instructed the cab driver with directions (after having called the restaurant) but he still had a hard time finding it (he had to call them too). The place didn't look very much from the outside, but after having been led inside by the friendly staff members this impression changed. It was a very harmonic and beuatiful setting, with light coming through the roof throughout the entire place. The menus were partly in english with very nice pictures of the various dishes and we started ordering away until the waitress stopped us with a "I think this is enough for four people". And it sure was. All the dishes looked great, and tasted the wonderful. All vegetables were crisp and fresh, something you seldom find here i Beijing. I think that all of us had their best Beijing food experience so far (after having stayed here for several months). Price was riddicilously low when the check arrived. A great meal and a great experience. I really reccomend this place to everyone!   Pros: Food * Atmosphere * Service Cons: * *

"Overall good restaurant"   My Rating
5 Donkey Do	Posted on: Friday, April 06, 2007
	Review: This restaurant belongs to a chain(see main list)and so serves the same menu at each. Menu not in English but pictures on about half of dishes, so unless you can read or speak chinese you can only pick from these!Food we ordered very fresh, but lacking some good flavour (maybe due to lack of MSG, oil, etc) so not so bad.   Pros: Friendly staff * organic fresh food * Lovely interior Cons: Lacking in taste a little * Fairly pricy * Hard to find
