Cute environment but the food and drinks were not tasty and overpriced. Can’t say I would go back here.

Staff was extremely kind, wouldn't mind Evan on the well.

We ordered takeout. The food was ready quickly and service was good. The food was so overpriced for the amount and the quality. We ordered the chicken, pork sausage, and burger. The pork was steamed and not appetizing, the chicken was incredibly mediocre and not very good, and the burger was unique in a bad way. The best part was the rice. Lower the prices or make better food.

Drinks and food were good. I came here on a quiet weeknight to meet up with a small group, eager to try the food here and support SE Asian cuisine The waitress seated us in the back with a large table (great!). Before ordering we kindly asked if it's possible to have separate checks (we anticipated 6-8 guests total). The waitress went quiet and reluctantly said, "yeah, I uh, guess we can". Sensing her dissatisfaction, we offered that if it was too much work for her we can proceed with one bill and figure it out amongst ourselves, or, I offered to put my order in and close out (unsure what the hesitancy was) in case I had to leave early. After a few of us put our orders in, again, we checked with the waitress if she was OK with the split. She didn't give a positive response. At the end, she charged each of us an automatic 20% group gratuity so I'm not sure why her responses were so despondent. Again, drinks were tasty, food was good, but the service was meh. Given the lackluster service (and charged 20% for it), I will go elsewhere.

"My" drink was delicious. Not sure what it was because my friend and I accidentally ordered what each other truly wanted so swapped drinks upon first sips. All I know is that it was mezcal-based. I had the grilled cheese and tomato bisque which was so rich and hard to finish, but I gave it my best. The soup was really flavorful, and I enjoyed the saltiness of the sandwich bread. My friend's vegan char siu sando with shrimp chips looked awesome. Love the cozy atmosphere and dim lighting. Our server wasn't friendly, per se, but he was great about answering our questions and checking in on us during our meal and otherwise leaving us be. Major downside is coming home smelling like their kitchen. I noticed it got pretty smoky while we were there and sure enough I had to come home and take a shower. Thumbs down to that aspect, but thumbs up to everything else.

I really enjoyed this place a lot. I am leaving this review for only one reason: the popcorn machine produces a bunch of smoke and there’s no ventilation, so I was wheezing for the rest of the night. If that were fixed this would be an easy 5-star review.

QR codes and bad service. The guy with the beard was nice. Still, avoid these QR code only places.

Went out for a few drinks. When we got there, it was about half full. Only saw two people working (waitress and bartender). After we got our first drinks, we went over 40 minutes without seeing our waitress. New parties kept being seated. The table next to us got seated, ignored for 20 minutes, and then just left. Luckily, we had cash.If you are on a skeleton crew, don't seat the whole place.

The food tasted delicious. I especially like their Chrysanthemum salad. The service is also great. The ambiance is very lively and the people are enjoying themself. It's a full house tonight. This is my first time at this place.

Funky little place with a nice vibe. We had beers/wines and a few small plates, It's a trendy little place with a few creative dishes but nothing grabbed me with a sense of 'on my gosh you have to come here more often' It was my birthday and my daughter had invited me to visit. It was her way to show me around and check out restaurants, bars and such. While it was not in the least bit disappointing, at the next visit I might not remember this place.... That's the kind of place this is.

Enjoyed the location and atmosphere. Food was nice but some items took much longer to come out than expected. $10 for a Mocktail is silly.

Looks nice from the outside and the atmosphere was alright, but the food and cocktails were over priced for what they were.

Disappointing and frustrating. I wouldn’t come back if they paid me to.We ordered food and a bottle.They didnt have the bottle so we settled by glass.We waited for the food for an hour but never got it. (For those keeping track that is 0/3 items correctly received). During the entire hour our server did not check in on us.The service was glacial, the seats uncomfortable, and the music oppressively loud.So the service is poor, the atmosphere unpleasant, and the food and drinks mostly failed to materialize. It is unclear what this establishment is offering.

Interesting American food with a twist of Asian influence. Bites were a bit small so don't expect to fill up on just one plate if you are looking for a full dinner. Parking can be a bit hard to find, look to go down the side streets.
