" The other night, I enjoyed a lovely dinner at QI Austin. I tried the Peking duck and was blown away by the flavor and presentation. For dessert, I couldn't resist the mango bomb, which was delightful! I'm charmed by the elegant decor, which adds to the dining experience, making it feel upscale yet approachable. My only complaint would be the slight wait for a table without a reservation, but it was worth it. I highly recommend QI for anyone looking to indulge in delicious Asian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Finally tried QI, and it was worth it! The dim sum selection is among the best I've seen, with ingredients that felt fresh and vibrant. A highlight was the fried rice which paired spectacularly well with the other dishes. The ambiance is pleasant, making it a great spot to unwind after a long day. The service was passable, not the fastest but friendly. Overall, I would rate my experience as highly satisfactory and am looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

The restaurant’s ambiance is contemporary and vibrant—a great place for socializing. While service had its ups and downs—it was mainly attentive but a little slow at times—this didn't overshadow the overall dining experience. I'm definitely planning on going back soon!

" I've tried QI a few times, and my experiences have varied. The food is generally great, particularly the dumplings, but I found the service a bit inconsistent on my last visit. On another note, the ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for a casual meal. The prices are on the high side, considering the portion sizes. Overall, it's still a great spot for Asian cuisine lovers! " (*Curated Review*)
