THIS PLACE'S FOOD IS NOT SAFE FOR CELIACS or highly sensitive gluten intolerant people. I was misled by previous reviewers to believe that this was a safe place for gluten free people. It is not! Yes, they have "gluten free" menu items, but none of them are actually gluten free. They are all fried in the same oil and prepared on the same surfaces. The worker literally asked us "how allergic are you?" And the proceeded to explain that nothing is safe. I am thankful for them being upfront though! The arcade, bar, restaurant concept is very cool though. -1 star for misleading people and using gluten free tags as a fad diet instead of for people who actually have to medically eat gluten free P.s. you must have proof of vaccination to enter

I wish they handled things differently here. One they don't take orders over the phone. Sure fine. I ordered on Grubhub. When I received my food the meat was missing from my order. All I received was rice and pickled veggies. I didn't get a notification that it was not going to be included. Just dissatisfied and disappointed. Stick to being a bar or separate the bar from the restaurant because customer service should not be that difficult.

family meal for two? I think so. Kind of a strange setup with the restaurant separated from the bar but still ordering from the bar? Anyway. Salad was tasty. Maybe needed a touch of salt but the well dressed bits were good. Bacon was tasty of course. The eggs were.. unusual. Good in flavor and texture but sweet and kind of gave me a mental pause for tasting not how you'd expect. The wings were good. Crispy. Salty. Peppery. I found myself wanting a glaze or a dip though as they were WELL breaded. Fried rice? Wow. Best thing we had. If you have nothing else here, have the kitchen sink rice. Sun and moon duo were nice. I don't typically enjoy pannacotta but this was pleasant after a heavy meal. Overall pretty good! No real service to speak of when ordering at a bar and filling my own drinks, but everyone was friendly for the most part. Food was good, maybe needed salt / side in places, but overall I'd definitely return.

It's definitely a cute hang out spot for a date night. They have drinks, delicious foods, and games. Their crack wings are indeed crack, so much flavor. Their cocktails options are pretty cool as well. The down side is parking; since it's in the downtown area, it's hard to find parking sometimes. Also their foods aren't as consistent I would say; there are some off days where the foods aren't as tasty but for most days, it's pretty good.

The food here is so good. With so many dishes from different types of cuisines, you would think one of them would get lost in the sauce, but you would be wrong. This place does not disappoint. The popcorn chicken is delicious, the pad see ew is really good. The best thing thought was the yellow curry and the pumpkin curry. Omg.

Had the best tikka masala (both Chicken and Cauliflower) in my opinion that I have eaten in the US. And then they stopped serving it ??. Great restaurant though, particularly the tea leaf salad.

I've given this place the benefit of the doubt, but too many times they have forgotten about my online orders. I have tried to order over the phone, but they always lead me to grub hub, so I use grub hub AND they still do not process my order. I have once waited up to an HOUR for their food. This has happened 3 times. Most recently, my father ordered in person for takeout, his buzzer went off 20 min later and they gave his food away. He waited some more and then they served it for dine in. My father patiently told them he ordered it to-go. The cashier or cook RUDELY stated that he did not and said you "either want it or you don't", so my dad asked for a refund. I NEVER leave bad reviews because I don't think it's worth it and honestly their food is good, but the lousy customer service is getting pretty old at this point and makes it difficult to support this small business.

Really nice barcade spot. If you want a good place to hang with friends that also has healthy (but not boring) food options - this one is for you!

Had the egg curry, was totally unimpressed with the amount of curry served. It was sufficient for about 1/2 of the rice. $15 for this? Seriously?? Not recommending this place. Over priced and not great for the price.

The dan dan noodles are unbelievably good! A tip - request the chilli sauce on side. Might get too hot! ?Also the fiery cheese noodles♥️
This place never disappoints! So happy they're open again! My boyfriend and I ate here for dinner last weekend and we enjoyed every bite. Plus, they have arcade games and a bar! Perfect for date night.

This place is actually super good!! literally!! There's nothing that you are going to get that's not going to be the bang for your buck!! They change their menu but I hope they're going to bring back some of their old stuff because it's super good I hope they continue with this place he keeps on closing down because of Covid hopefully this will change very soon and they would constantly open daily everything there is worth getting an worth trying!!

We were here for lunch. I've never been and was impressed with the variety on the menu. I chose the crack wings which were a delicious savory plate of chicken wings with rice and pickled vegetables. Other folks had the butter chicken which was fabulous. One person had the pork cheek and another person had the Vietnamese pork belly. Everything was fabulous. They even had a Vegetarian curried cauliflower. The flavor was delicious and all the dishes had just the right amount of spice. This is a casual dining place adjacent to a hipster video arcade. The food came out quickly and was generous in portion. I liked everything so much that I'm going to bring my family back here next week.

Dope addition to DTSJ, the staff don't pull any weak punches here. Each dish that is pictured below were really flavorful, I'd come back to have more of everything besides the brother and sister baos, but be on alert, the food is so flavorful, you'll def have a food coma if you stuff yourself to death like I did. :) Also, don't forget your ID if you're trying to get into MiniBoss, they don't accept pictures, I learned the hard way.

Their fried chickens are the best in the area. The black bean noodles ( for my Koreans out there) is the best I've had so far in the states at least. I don't know about the dumplings here to be honest--they were quite bland for my taste and didn't taste any special.
