Food was quite good however service level was very poor. On entering the restaurant we needed to move our own table and chairs from a different section of the restaurant to arrange seating place for our party of 6 people. After ordering and not getting our food for over 1 hour we noticed that they were prioritizing take out customers due to which dine in customers like us were ignored.
After 1 hour of waiting when we complained to the waitress that other people who arrived after us were getting their food she said please wait the food is being cooked. We waited another 15 mins.

Very different to the very juicy round ones (Sami). They also sell a few sweet packages, Pocky etc. Line up for take out or sit down for table service....
Read moreMy friend and I went to this cozy spot for lunch yesterday, since I'd read about it online and wanted to try it out. It. Was. Amazing. Super speedy service, fresh crunchy zingy (and slightly spicy) salads - we had the cucumber (always my personal favorite) and seaweed bamboo (which had a funky fermented flavour) - served on crisp iceberg lettuce and topped with peanuts and cilantro. We were told by our neighbors that they mushroom salad was great too. Our steamed dumplings arrived after just a few bites of salad. We ordered their two veggie selections, both of which were both phenomenal, and came accompanied by a trio of sauces - sweet peanut butter sauce, smoky chili paste, and a sesame soy sauce. Wow. Cannot wait to return. What an...
