I don't know why there's a long despite the fact that we went there on a Monday evening (1/23/2017) at 5.30 PM, when it was about to open and despite a gloomy weather.
I think this is such a overrated/hyped and overpriced restaurant.
Let's take the pros and cons

Dimsum style American Food, so it's kinda Tapas-style. Interesting twist to your normal "heavy" and huge amount of American Food.
Nice ambiance and place in Fillmore. Not too Fancy, but not too Shabby either.
Food - generally it was good, I won't say it's great but it was really good (Not all of course).

Oysters - of course, it's always yummy 3$ a piece
Smoked Trout Dip with Potato Chips - interested twist using smoked trout as a dip
Duck Confit Ball - interesting but errr.. 10 dollars?
Garlic Bread Burrata - Burrata was good, but Garlic Bread was not, can't even taste the Garlic.
Ice Cream Sandwich - I actually like it and with kinda roasted Chia seeds, so was quite interesting.
Pork Belly - was really good with some like lemon-y sauce. (7 bucks for just two slices of pork belly)

Long Line
Price? Really that much!
I can prolly get better food for 50 bucks per person somewhere else (note we did not even order wine, just a soda/ iced tea)
