Reviews

Fresh, quality food that we really enjoyed.
We could tell on our first bites that this was made with quality as the goal.
We were surprised how quickly the food arrived too! Absolutely will return! Our favorite was the Drunken Noodles with Beef.


A cute vibe of a restaurant! Staff was friend while we came here for lunch.
We had the following. - Beef on a stick (tender jerky feel - good flavor) - Pork Belly (also on a stick) - there’s a good mixture of meat and fat which was crispy! - Dumplings ; they said it would take 25 but came out pretty quick. - Basil Fried Rice The items we got were pretty good although I feel it could be missing something.
We’ll certainly be back again to try their other dishes! Overall food was good and experience was great!


Stood ignored by servers for 15 minutes.
Finally seated and ordered.
After an hour flagged server to get status.
Said order was delayed because they ran out of chicken for satay.
Took another 10 minutes - chicken satay same out as charred bits.
I asked where my Tom Yum was and the server asked if I wanted Tom Yum.
I responded - yes, that’s why I ordered it.
Tom Yum came out completely over salted.
Red Curry duck came out absolutely flavorless.
My wife got Pad Thai with Tofu - tofu was somehow hard like a charcoal briquette.
They comped the appetizers and gave 20% off and that was still overpaying.
We left 80% of the food behind.
Will not be returning.
