    This was a celebration for our friend who is now cancer free. There were 3 of us. We were seated before our scheduled time which was nice. Complimentary alcoholic beverages were provided to celebrate this medical milestone. The cocktail menu is extensive and the drinks were exceptional. Food was fried crab and cream cheese wontons - super crispy and tasty. Cannonball Tater Tots with braised short rib were really good. We prefer our tots crispy and these were not. We had crispy lumpia, dan dan noodles and the crispy pork ribs. All were well plated and a vision for sure --pleasing to the eye and a party in your mouth. Brownie lava cake with vanilla ice cream finished off our gustatory delight. We eat out every Friday at a different restaurant. Iris was our waitress and she was delightful. We would highly suggest Strong Water to our friends for any occasion or night out. Well done.

    We had the shareable Bali Bali drink. It was very good. The lumpia appetizer was delicious. The shortribs and the ahi poke bowl were both good size portions and very tasty. Sorry we didn't try this place sooner.
