Excellent Asian-fusion reminiscent of David Chang's Momofuku restaurants. Every dish is very rich and flavorful. Many are quite spicy. Service is downright awful, perhaps the worst I've experienced in New York City. The waitstaff took a long time even though the restaurant was half full. They made multiple mistakes. I felt like our waitress was impaired in some way. The decor is an afterthought. An expensive tab for such a mediocre experience.

I was disappointed after hearing good reviews. The food was very salty. It was mediocre at best, and I drank at least two large bottles of water during my meal!

Hit or miss with the food, but the service always seems good!

"Thanks for spice level alerts. Even triple digits doesn't hide the succulent uniquely prepared dishes on this intersting menu. Mango jicama salad is a prize, delicious fish specials. "

"A whole lotta noise; not just the absurdly over-amped music. They seem to enjoy showing off their deconstructed semi-Indonesian dishes. But most every dish is unsatisfying, and some are just way overpriced. The dorade penang is not bad, everything else will leave you screaming for peace and quiet."
