Not sure how this restaurant got 4.8 stars at 8.3k reviews. Food was so bad. Check out the hang-gree sign lmao. Had this constant beeping overhead every 5 seconds I'm really not sure what it was for but they switched it off when I asked about it. Service was prompt and attentive. Mushroom soup was made mostly of cream, no mushroom taste at all. Ice lemon tea was tannic and sweet—oversteeped. Aglio olio chicken was not bad, noodle had a plastic rubbery texture and chicken was moist. Onion rings were overcooked, the batter was bitter and oily. Mac and cheese was undercooked, hard to chew and chalky and definitely made from a premix. I spat it out. Truffle mushroom mac and cheese was perfumey and had a layer of oil coming out from it, very weird texture. Seabass skin was soggy and slimy and the meat of the fish was very dry. Brusselsprouts and fries were great. Can't believe I spent $92 for 3 pax for this kind of food.

Lovely place discovered by chance while looking for protein and less carbs. Steak doneness was on point, enjoyed the chicken and fish lots. Will definitely come back!

Josh's Grill, I’d say slightly tastier than the likes Astons and XW, but also at a slightly higher price point. The chicken chop was grilled well, juicy and moist, though the sauces didn’t really do much to enhance the dish, it felt a bit …
