Executive chef Arnold Eric Wong (Eos, bacar) has deftly elevated the menu and cool, upscale vibe at this longtime Union Square restaurant. Above-average Asian fusion cuisine and cocktails satisfy the mostly young, sophisticated professionals lounging under palm-frond ceiling fans, especially at happy hour when a first-rate pupu platter of signature nibbles comes at a very nice price. Platter items might include the restaurant’s famed corn fritters with sweet chili soy sauce; meaty short rib sliders with taro strip fries; crispy five spice chicken rolls; and good satay (choices include steak, chicken, portobello or prawn) with pickled vegetables. All items are also featured à la carte, including our favorite, the hoisin and coffee glazed spare ribs, crisp, dark and sweet and a little sticky. Some dishes---big, overly rich dumplings, oversize scallops---exhibit a too-heavy hand; we find that lighter choices, and especially meat dishes, are the best bets here. Comfy booths, rough-hewn wood and vintage Shanghai art add touches of classic cool to the bar, lounge, main dining floor and mezzanine. Ask about private event spaces in the cavernous lower level.
