Favorite restaurant of ours in Raleigh hands down. The Five Star chicken dinner and heat seeker shrimp appetizer can't be beat. We've been 20+ times and take all friends and visiting family there.UpvoteDownvote- Must get: heat seeker shrimp, crispy sesame beef, thai peanut noodles + chicken, generals chicken, green beans. So, so good.Upvote1Downvote
Morgan TalbotMarch 19, 2015Reserve the loft for parties. We had a group of fifty and everyone was very happy and well taken care of. We loved it! #givemeyourcat

Everything on the menu especially the crispy sesame chicken. And the bartender Chandler makes the best drinks!

When it’s good, it’s good. Unfortunately, it’s not consistent. Have had a poor experience due to front of house as well as back of house staff on multiple occasions.UpvoteDownvote

The heat seeker shrimp is tasty, but less spicy than it used to be. Make sure they send out some Sriracha!Upvote1Downvote
