Great neighborhood sushi and Thai spot carry-out spot with lots of vegetarian options - vegetarian maki rolls and tofu and veggie Pad See Ew hit the spot! Carry-out only, no dining in!
The Veggie Maki was bursting with flavor and a garden medley of veggies - avocado, inari, kanpyo, seaweed, cucumber & ohba wrapped in soy bean sheet. The Sweet Potato Tempura roll was tasty and not greasy. It was nice that the rolls weren't overloaded with rice with a higher proportion of veggies. Hubby enjoyed the handmade cone-shaped temaki Double Salmon roll.
The peanut sauce was fantastic and paired really well with the sushi, def worth the $0.50 upcharge. I wish I had gotten another side of it! The spicy mayo def had a kick and a bit too much for me to handle!
The tofu and veggie Pad See Ew noodles was cooked al dente and a lot less greasier than most places. There was a heap of veggies - broccoli, carrots, squash, onions, asparagus that helped to round out the dish with fried tofu. The smaller portion was nice and could easily be conquered. It was a relief not to have leftovers!
Love the diverse menu and variety of dishes, will def come back when we're in the area. Worth the 1/2 hour drive...
Read moreNeighborhood chic eatery. Well priced with generous portions. First time: sat in, didn't know which enticing veg options to choose, was in no rush as I'm reading my book. Ordered the green papaya salad- no fish sauce, Thai spicy ($5). A heaping serving, lips burning, fresh and crunchy. Followed by veg spring rolls ($5). Very flavorful and different from the usual. I think they are in-house made (I don't bother asking- I've been lied to many times). They are a bit more chewy (but not to be off putting) than crispy- which makes me think they are not frozen. Friendly service. They were in no rush to send me off, however the food was served super fast. It was mid week and not terribly busy. Local clientele. Second time: take out. Ginger Stir Fry ($10). I forgot to specify Thai spicy! Ugh!! But still very tasty. I didn't taste the usual fishy taste I get from most Thai places. Quality veggies! Of course the usual onion, cabbage, carrots. But they upped it with quality broccoli, asparagus, cauliflower. Was ready in the 15 minutes it took me to walk there. Friday night, place was busy. I look forward to going there with friends and eating tapas style. They are very...
Read moreThis restaurant provides TERRIBLE customer service. Twice I’ve placed an order for delivery. Both times it took well over an hour to receive the food, and they refused to deliver the food to my apartment door. They said it wasn’t safe for their driver to get out of the car and come into my building. So even though I asked for delivery, I had to go downstairs and outside to their car to get the food. In addition to this insult and inconvenience, both times they were so bold as to complain TO MY FACE that the tip I provided was not sufficient. I guess they don’t realize a tip is extra not required, and based in part on the level of service provided. I’ve ordered from them twice because I wanted to see if the first bad experience was just a fluke. But it wasn’t.
If good customer service and respect are important to you, don’t wast your time and money on this establishment. I’ll never order...
