Profile

This Symphony House spot is refreshingly pretense-free, but the “It’s just food” ethos belies the skill in the kitchen: Tyson Wong Ophaso is a heavily credentialed chef. There are many menu items you’d be happy to find at a neighborhood takeout joint, while the creative fusion stuff—like burn-your-tongue dumplings and potato leek spring rolls—shines.

Had 6 great meals here. Absolutely love the Oxtail Dumplings, Pad Thai, Won Ton Soup, Salt and Pepper Shrimp and ALL the Curries. Have the Sticky Rice for desert. Saturday and Sunday Brunch is great too; and very inventive. Love it!

Did not enjoy my dinner nor did I enjoy the fact of eating my entree before the app. When I asked the waitress She said this is the concept, weird concept if you ask me. Will not return.
