A wonderful dining experience in a very well designed and planned restaurant. I arrived to see many people waiting for a delicious meal. I was told I could eat at the bar to avoid a long wait. So I did. The bartender who served me, Juan was very sociable and professional. I enjoyed a lovely meal of shrimp coconut curry. Most delicious and an excellent portion size. I recommend to all.

Elizabeth with Offline - Upon first arriving the atmosphere was calm and welcoming. We were seated very quickly and given recommendations from the waiter as soon as he arrived. For our appetizers, we ordered the smoked pork belly bun and the crispy shrimp dumplings. The dough for the bun was soft and light, and the pork was cooked perfectly. the dumplings were very light and crispy with excellent flavor. Our entrees were the teriyaki crispy chicken rice bowl and the “ban fan” Ming’s big mix rice bowl. The teriyaki crispy chicken was well seasoned and had a light crispy crust. the only complaint was that the egg was slightly overcooked that we added to the top. the ban fan bowl was a nice variety of cool crunchy vegetables with a century egg. We also added pork belly to that bowl which paired nicely. The fat on the pork was rendered perfectly and was a great addition to the rest of the bowl. The drink we had was the nigiri limeade which had a strong sourness from the lime.

We had a great time here, the drinks were inventive and delicious. The food was just the right amount. Highly recommend their steamed buns and crunchy teriyaki chicken ❤️ Great service from our host, the waitress and the bartender. The vibe is very laid back but also upscale, and I’m not sure how they achieved it, but great job!
