This place is a hit or miss. Some items are fantastic and others are worse than your local asian fast food joint. Maybe steer clear of anything on their menu that you can get for less than $17 elsewhere.Hit: Slow braised short rib (short rib was soft and luscious), drinks (love the depth of flavors in their drinks), lychee panna cotta (yum!)Skip: Vegetable yakisoba + chicken katsu (noodles were soggy and flavor profile was boring, the tonkatsu sauce was too salty and acidic that it overpowered the seemingly well cooked chicken), salmon tartare wonton tacos (it was not bad but also not good, whatever they put on it was acidic and salty and not much else, couldn’t taste the salmon at all that I forgot it was salmon and thought it was tuna until I looked at the menu again, what’s the point?)

Excellent food, service and a great place for a date night. Although it's a small area the seating felt intimate and quiet. I had the ahi poke tacos on wonton shells (fantastic!)Parking: Plenty of open parking on a weekday night.

Not impressed from the second my friend and I were greeted which soured the remaining experience. Food was alright, overpriced in my opinion for portion and flavor. Not memorable, won’t be back.

This small restaurant is a great Asian fusion spot in Edmonds. I’ve been here 3x now and have been pleasantly surprised by their dishes and cocktails. The place has a great selection of Asian inspired foods along with a list of specials served weekly (or monthly?). I highly recommend booking a reservation a few days in advance as they’re always full both weekdays and weekends. I’ve managed to snag a spot at their bar without a reservation the last 2x I’ve gone during dinner hour. The soup dumplings, Brussels sprouts, yakisoba add katsu chicken, and homemade mac salad are some of favorites. I’ve also tried their beef rice bowl and tacos (on the speciality menu) which have been tasty as well. I haven’t made it to happy hour yet, but it’s on the list! Give this place a try next time you’re craving Asian food.Vegetarian options: Whole part of the menu is dedicated to vegetarian diet

Really blown away by the food. The Ahi Poke Tacos were delicious and would highly recommend. The charred shishito peppers and spicy pork noodles were wonderful as well. Drink selection was great (Shiso Pretty was enjoyed by my partner) and had a wide variety of non-alcoholic options (Ube Horchata was fun and delicious). Location was a bit strange inside a sketchy strip-center but ambiance inside was perfect for a date night.

Very easy to make a reservation. The menu options were very diverse and creative. Our favorite dish of the night was the pork belly nachos as it let the pork belly really shine. Our server, Chad, was wonderful as well and gave us really helpful recommendations. We would highly recommend and will return to try even more of their menu options!

Ordered a burger and the short ribs plus the gochujang wings . Suuuuper delicious. Portions were great, food was fresh. Probs the best short ribs I’ve ever had. Service was subpar, and could have been better. But the food made up for it.

Pork belly nachos were great (could have done without the pickles) Burger was yummy! Bulgogi fries were great too! Seems like background music was missing. I think ambience would have been better if there was light/soft music playing in the background. A bit on the pricey end, but great food.

The menu has something for everyone. The one thing to never miss is the avocado rice. Can be ordered as a side dish, or for a modest charge, substituted for the normal rice if that is in the dish you order. We never come away disappointed. Reservations are a "MUST"

The food and service were excellent. We had the Miso Avocado salad and Ahi Tuna Tacos for starters and I've decided I could have that salad everyday. We followed up with additional courses and were very happy they so many of their dishes were gluten free or had a gluten free option. We can't wait to go back.

The place was very lively. The food was good, we ordered their famous gochujang chicken wings and will definitely come back for that, birria ramen was thick and heavy, impossible burger with truffle fries was good and finished it with gauva churro cheesecake. Make sure you leave enough space for deserts because they are delish!

The menu looks amazing but execution wasn't great. We were seated in the small room, and it was very loud even though there were only six patrons in there, including us. It didn't help that our waiter was obnoxiously loud. When we asked for the dessert menu they brought us the check and hurried us out of there while ushering in the next couple to take our table
