" Delicious food! I had high expectations from the reviews and they certainly lived up to it. The spicy chili wontons and pancake sliders were divine—can't recommend them enough!

" Sweet Chive has a unique charm that’s hard to beat! I really enjoyed the chili wontons and the fish sushi roll, both were outstanding! The only downside was that the ambience could be a bit loud at times, especially when full. Overall, it was a fantastic meal, and the staff seemed very attentive. I look forward to trying more of their sushi offerings next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a pretty good dinner tonight! The scallion pancakes were crispy and delicious, but I found the portions for the beef claypot a bit too small given the price. The service was friendly but felt a bit slow; we waited a while for our drinks. However, the inviting ambiance and quality of food balance things out. If you're looking for a chill spot to dine, this is a solid option! " (*Curated Review*)
