It was an early Friday night so the place wasn't packed. The atmosphere is ok. Nothing to write home about. The service was very good & the food was at best 3/5. I had pad thai & it was ready in 45 seconds… never a good sign.
All in all a 2.5 out of 5 if you're looking for a quick bite. Not somewhere I'd take a first date.
Best food for the price. The general tao combo is very very good. I recommand this place to everyone that wants a delicious meal server quickly that Will actually fill you up for less than 15$. The chef is super friendly & I can't not recommend this place enough. 5/5.
Walked by the restaurant checked out the reviews decided to give it a try. There were no clients, I Ordered the peanut butter dumplings (bit watery but ok) & sauté'd pork waiter describes it as fatty meaty. Rushing me to decide on the order took that Order came quickly after a few bites, lost my appetite it just wasn't good.
Took it to go hoping to recook, not waste the plate. It disintegrated a few hours later because it was mostly batter. Couldn't heat up or recook any of it
The meat left was.... Thrown out, wasn't comfortable giving it to my dog.
The service was bad, food terrible I wish I didn't go
