Service is amazing. Very friendly and attentive. Food is delicious but extremely small portions compared to 13 states I’ve been in last 13 months repeatedly. Atmosphere and physical facilities is not impressive at all in any standards. Corner spot and very small and get back of chair bumped constantly sitting at sushi bar. Will not be back here unfortunately as right next to my hotel.

Probably the most elegant Chinese restaurant I have ever been to. Amazing food, well presented with fine service. It is expensive, however - even rice is a la carte. For us, it's a special occasion place but since we were staying next door, we ate there twice - actually one meal fed two. Unusual menu -had mandarin chicken. Wonderful. Even the house salad is good.

Food was good but not so much better than any other Chinese restaurant I've been to to charge more....Also the night crowd is very...... maybe I was there on a bad night, but aggressive. Glad they have such big bouncers... but do you really need that atmosphere when dining

Great atmosphere. Appetizers and soup were nicely done. Entree was okay. Spice level was heavy. Entree was listed as having no spice level. Overall I enjoyed it. Next time I will stick with a dish that I know. The dessert menu was American and not Asian inspired.

I hadn't been to Mon Jin Lau in a long time. The service was good and the food was excellent. It was my husband's first time and he really enjoyed the food. He's still talking about the rice.

When everywhere seemed to have 1hr+ wait, we lucked out and got in here without a wait. And this was probably better than where we'd planned.
The staff was absolutely wonderful keeping everything moving smooth on a busy night. And the food itself was incredibly well prepared! Seriously so perfect, especially on the poultry which is so difficult to get this perfect. Even the tofu was exceptional.
We got drinks as well which were good and the combinations for fusion were wonderfully inventive. I will be coming back.

This was the worst Chinese food I've had in years. The "Spicy" Orange Chicken was disgustingly fried--like that of a county fair elephant ear. Unpalatable. The Cashew Chicken was equally awful, with a gross, tendoin-like texture that literally made me spit it out (and I will eat almost anything). I could not give this food a lower rating. Service is great, but the food is atrocious.

The dumplings are amazing, you really need to tried them!!!! Also the coconut sushi is delicious and different. They have good service and the price is ok for the quality they have.
