Xian Rio
Our verdict
Xian Rio is worth booking for a special occasion, group dinner, or date night where rooftop views and a lounge atmosphere are central to the plan. The Modern Asian Fusion menu works well for sharing, with dishes like oxtail dumplings, spicy tuna roll, pad thai, and black salmon, but the stronger value is dine-in rather than takeout.
