Skip the Old Fashioned (too sweet), stick to Asahi Draft. I come here for the Buns (beef pho is the best), wifey for kimchi & fried chicken Ramen.

Thank you for the great feedback! We’re glad to hear you and your wifey enjoy the buns and ramen. We’ll take your Old Fashioned suggestion into account and look forward to welcoming you both back soon!

Just couldn’t get the attention of our server after the appetizer order. There is a huge maybe problem with maybe thinking I was on a date when I was just wanting to eat my face off with a friend.

Came around lunch time on a Monday. Not packed whatsoever, although I did made a reservation just incase. I ordered express lunch (katsu pork rice plate, chicken shio ramen with the extra sesame chili) and of course, a pork belly mantou bun. Filled me up! Everything was delicious with great quick service!

Hi Erin, Thank you so much for your review and rating! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your lunch express! The pork bun is also one of my go-to's. We look forward to your next visit! Best, Pirapat Deepipat

We waited almost an hour for our ramen. When I asked what the holdup was the server told us that they were overwhelmed with online orders so everything was slow. I think in person customers should be priority. When we finally got it, it wasn’t very warm. So disappointing.
