With its lofty ceilings, striking artwork and sweeping staircase, this is the place to come if you’re seeking a little glamour with your Asian cuisine. The extensive menu offers dishes whose origins spring from many regions throughout China but that reflect a California sensibility. Try the translucent shrimp dumplings and the chicken lettuce wraps, whose contrasting textures and flavors feel (and taste) like a Fourth of July show in your mouth. The oolong-marinated sea bass is another pleasure, as are the salt-and-pepper prawns. Traditionalists will embrace the crispy honey chicken and feisty Mongolian beef, and vegetarians will be thrilled with the great selection of nonmeat items.
