Didn't know about emerging Chef Jennifer spot or that Chef Jose visited till I visited the restaurant myself and tasted the amazing food. Situated in San Antonio's Historic Pearl district, is a creative fusion cuisine that blends Chinese-American comfort food with other flavors such as mochi hush puppies, and 🥟 mixed with all kinds of ingredients. We also had Dan Dan noodles mixed with brisket and waygu beef, curry that will blow your socks off with flavors and spice. Make sure you get all the sides, I enjoyed the popcorn chicken even though it's a bit non traditional with the bigger pieces, but still plenty of flavors to bring you home comfort or boba shop memoriesm. Definite appreciated Chef Jennifer Hwa Dobbertin honoring her heritage and williness to try new things, and enjoy supporting another Asian food restaurant on the come up. It was a fun dining experience in a beautifully designed space. You can see the unique style with the decorations and art in a historical house. With an array of cocktails, all the teas of China was tasty and the jade bracelet was good too. Nightshade with vibrant colors and the marg looked good too. You won't be disappointed with any of them. Overall an excellent experience. I would drive from Austin to dine there again. Make sure you make a reservation, I bet it would get packed. Also it's on the expensive side of Chinese food dishes but strong portions and plenty of items you can share family style

Came in yesterday for the first time and it was amazing. It was Sunday around 2 PM. They are mainly reservation based and had a long wait to be seated inside but they did let us know that outdoor seating was available so that's where we went! It was a little chilly but they turned on some heaters so it felt really nice! Olivia was our server and she was so great!! They made sure to note any allergies and took time to explain how the restaurant works. They also explained one of the dishes to us so we weren't surprised with the spiciness of the dish. Great service from them! In terms of the food, I thought everything was so delicious! We ordered the pork fried rice as well as the dumplings and popcorn chicken. I loved the sauce that came with the chicken and the fried rice was SO yummy. The plates are family style so our main entree was the rice with the dumplings and chicken as our sides. It was me and my fiancé and that was plenty for us, we even had some leftovers. The dumplings had a sharper taste which was delicious but a little hard to get the grasp of at first but they are marinated very well which I liked. TONS of flavor! I'm not too picky about presentation so I don't have much to say on that. As long as the food tastes good I don't care what it looks like, haha! All in all, this place was great! I can't wait to go back!

One of my FAVORITE restaurants. The best dining experience. Moody lighting, unique drinks, creative vegan options & interior decor is so cool. Feels kinda like a tucked away spot in NYC. Wish I took more photos, but was too busy enjoying the meal. The impossible potstickers were the best I’ve ever had.

A very relaxing little place on the edge of the pearl. We enjoyed several sides and entrées and shared them between the three of us. Also indulged in a few cocktails. Everything was delicious and the service was fantastic! We stayed for 3 hours visiting and chatting. The restaurant started to get really busy and we never once were we bothered by the staff. This place is also not over priced like many places at the Pearl district.

I was really excited to finally try this place after hearing so many great reviews. It’s a charming, cozy spot set in a house from the early 1900s right in the Pearl District. Definitely recommend making a reservation if you’re going on the weekend. Our waiter was super friendly and took the time to walk us through the dishes we were curious about, which I appreciated. We started with the Korean corn cheese spring rolls…absolutely a 10/10, so delicious! We also ordered the smashed cucumber salad. Since I make this at home pretty often, it didn’t stand out to me, so I’d give it a 5/10. For our main, we went with the salt and pepper shrimp. The crisp was perfect, so I’d rate it 8/10. We’ve had this dish elsewhere with a little more flavor, but the dipping sauce they serve it with added a nice kick. We also tried the fried rice (not pictured), which was solid…about a 7/10. As for cocktails, I had the margarita and the “Swear on Your Jade.” They were fine but nothing memorable…5/10 for both. Overall, it’s a really cute spot for date night or even a casual lunch if you’re nearby. We’ll definitely be back to try a few more dishes!
