" This place is a hidden gem! The food quality is phenomenal, the duck pies were to die for! The service was friendly, making us feel right at home. Although the portions were smaller, I cannot fault the flavor. The cocktails were equally impressive! Definitely returning soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner here after hearing a lot of buzz. I tried several items and was disappointed by the authenticity. The food was pretty but felt a bit Americanized. The duck pie tee was enjoyable but didn’t quite hit the mark. Nevertheless, the ambiance felt special, and the cocktails were inventive. Will revisit to give it another chance. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at 53 was decent but not mind-blowing. The atmosphere was nice but could feel a bit cramped. The dim sum was good, but I expected more authentic flavors. The service was excellent throughout, making sure we had everything we needed, but the food just didn’t live up to the hype for me. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited 53 for a birthday celebration and was totally impressed. The food was exquisite, especially the lobster rice – a must-try! The portions were a bit on the smaller side, but everything was exceptionally delicious. The service was friendly and knowledgeable, which added to the delightful experience. Overall, I would highly recommend this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Came for brunch and ordered the Hainanese chicken and eggs! While the dish was good, I wished for a bit more seasoning or sauce—it was a bit too plain. The staff were friendly and quick which made the experience enjoyable. The ambiance was lovely, making it a good spot for a relaxed brunch. Overall, a decent experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an average experience here. The service was superior, fantastic really, but the food wasn’t quite what I expected. The flavors didn’t resonate as authentic Asian cuisine, which I thought it marketed itself as. The clay pot dishes were inventive, but I missed that traditional touch. The atmosphere is beautiful and worth a visit, but I’m unsure if I'd return based solely on the food. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is pretty amazing! I didn't have any expectations but was surprisingly impressed. The decor is vibrant and hip, and the staff was attentive. The duck pie tee was innovative but still carried traditional flavors. I'm excited to try more dishes on my next visit! Definitely a place to take friends or family. " (*Curated Review*)
