2 + The Positive: It has a Happy Hour. The Negative: Lack taste. Lack decor. Tourist trap.

Steamed buns, Gyoza, Edamame
Mary F.

The food was pretty good here. I got a tuna roll with eel sauce, and my friend got Steamed buns and gyoza. pretty good but nothing special. The service was a bit weird, It seemed very family dynamic which is fine. It's a bit awkward when you have a angsty teenager who clearly doesn't want to be there "working" the front. I asked for wasabi and they seemed confused that I asked for that??? The vibe of the restaurant was okay. We probably won't be back.

Shrimp dumplings

Service was great, inside is fine decor wise and the menu is cool.. Food was okay in the moment, however it made me violently ill. We just got the already cooked dumplings.. shrimp, pork and chicken. That was all I had eaten that day aside from an iced latte which I don't think was the reason for getting sick. I had a horrible stomach ache about a both after that lasted 3 hours and ended in my throwing up.wont be going back because im scared to get sick again. Sad because the staff were really nice :( thinking it was the shrimp or that the pork was undercooked ?

Hardly any crab
Mari F.

Ordered food here on Uber eats and was underwhelmed and a bit disappointed. The bbq pork bao buns were the best thing out of what I ordered , but it was more of the boa bun than the BBQ pork filling so it was a little dry. the teriyaki chicken was chewy , & a very small portion for $10, the pork dumplings were a bit greasy and lacked flavor, the crab Rangoons had little to no crab inside, and the BBQ pork ribs actually scared me because ive never seen any kind of meat like this... And super fatty pieces / micro bone shards everywhere they were completely inedible.

Seafood ramen
Serena M.

what's up broskis so we came over to this place cuz we just saw it across the street and decided to check it out the place is that retry and the tables are massive (massive?) here are some odd things: the egg in the ramen was blue/grey, and according to jadical it was absolutely horrendous and the water was also a tad blue.. the appetizers were yummy, you can't go wrong with those; dumplings, green beans, and steaming rice were really good. The seafood ramen was very delish except for the egg. also pricing is pretty fair for the most part, and sushi was yummers. One of my only complaints is maybe having the waiter/waitresses wear gloves, cuz when they brought out soup their fingers were touching it also sesame balls are awesomesauce okay slighttt edit cuz the people here aren't the nicest father had gone to use the bathroom and they started forcing him to tip them and they were really mean..

Volcano sushi and sesame balls
Indira B.

Would not recommend this place to anyone. Not even my worse enemy. Fish was terrible, rice was hard and service was slow. One of my friend got food poisoning from this place. Should have known to run out the minute we walk it and see no asian people around. Ambiance was nice and quiet because no one would step in to the restaurant.

Soup dumplings
Suhani P.

Decent food but don't expect to compare it to the more popular Chinese or dim sum spots. We were seated quickly on a Saturday but they were not so busy at that time. They have indoor and patio seating, which was nice to be able to enjoy good weather. One person ordered ramen and he didn't enjoy it. The sushi was pretty solid. The spicy wontons had an odd aftertaste to it. The staff is very nice!

BBQ Pork Bao

When we got there it was completely dead, which we thought it was a good thing! but soon realize why it was dead. My friend order some dish and they change their mind on the order, as well told the server to not cook the order since they was still deciding. When the server came back my friend tried to change their order but the server told them it was already being cooked. This made my friend uncomfortable and not trying to be rude still took the order they did not want. I got the duck ramen and it was only 2 pieces of duck with a lot of bone. Was tasty. So that's why it gets the extra star. (From 0 to 1) Bbq Bao was okay as well, not very filling. But the service wasn't professional since my friend was pressure to still order a dish and pay due for the dish that was already being cooked. (Like why place the order in the kitchen when the customer told you to not do so because they're still deciding?!?) So make sure you already know what you want to order unless you will be pressured to pay for something you may not want! Will not be coming back here :/

Foods are so delicious and very good service then the location is amazing then fabulous place to dine or to go.

Shrimp Cheung Fun, basically like eating rubber :(
Alex M.

I really like the fact that ASIE is trying to put out some Cantonese food on the Santa Barbara map. Perhaps it is the fact that I am Cantonese so I have significantly higher standards for Dim Sum, but this set of dishes is just not up to par. On the bright side, the ambience is really calming and the service is great. While their dim sum is lacking, perhaps their other food is better. Here's my reviews on their Dim Sum: Shrimp Cheung Fun - Unfortunately, this rice noodle dish needs significant improvement. Not only does the frozen cheung fun you can buy taste better but also the noodle is so chewy its like you're trying to engulf a mouthful of chewing gum. The batter needs to be a lot thinner, use less glutinous rice flour, and the soy sauce needs sugar. The shrimp is well seasoned and tender though. Spinach Dumpling - Sorry, but unfortunately this is another rough one. The filling of this dumpling is pure spinach, and the spinach has nothing wrong except the poor seasoning. However, a dumpling with pure spinach does not work because all you have is a mushy bundle of leafage once you squeeze the water out. Additionally, the skin is thick, bland, and wrapped poorly. In addition to some improvement in mastering dumpling wrapping, this dumpling also need some grounding substance for the filling to go with the spinach, among some necessary seasoning adjustments. Bean Curd Roll - The last of my ASIE reviews, and unfortunately, this dish is not good either. The rolls are poorly wrapped, almost hollow, and need significantly more filling, vegetarian or pork-based. The sauce is like a thin soy, but needs to be a thick gravy with more mushroom flavor and less soy. The only saving grace for this dish is the garlic on top, which is an interesting spin to the dish.

The food was absolutely to die for. Staff was very nice and the service was quick. Definitely an awesome find while on vacation!

I am Chinese, I just wanted to try a new Chinese restaurant. Now I finally understand why there aren't any Asians eating in this restaurant. All the meals only looked like real Chinese food, in fact, only looked like Chinese food, I feel that this is not something for human beings to eat. I had dinner there about 20 minutes ago and now my stomach is already starting to ache. I feel like I've got food poisoning. Stay away from this place, trust me.

Arrived here on a Saturday night, driving back from Solvang. It was a bit chilly, so it was a…read moreperfect time to get some ramen. Got seated pretty quickly, where there are various heaters to ensure comfort. Drinks were served pretty quickly. Ordered the Black Ramen (made with Black Garlic Oil) for 19.50, solid price. I enjoy the choices of meat that you can choose from, which I chose Pork Belly, and added an egg to mine. Didn't take too long for the food to come out, everything was really fresh and tasted well. The pork belly was a nice chunk too (I had expected it was going to be smaller). The broth was very delicious, which I killed the entire bowl. With the check, they also give mini Hi-Chews. Overall, great food, great seating, great service. Much Better ramen than some chain restaurants.

We tried the black garlic ramen with chashu. It was just ok. The chashu did not have the melt in your mouth texture which is the payoff for clogged arteries. We had the chicken karage. Again, just ok, and a bit dry and stringy. We also ordered a cucumber roll. It was the sloppiest sushi roll we've ever seen. First off it was the big, kimbab size roll, but cut super skinny. So you had to bite off half of it. Which meant all the insides fall out. It was rolled so loose, that you could literally see through it. The chef didn't even bother not serving the messy end pieces, so it looked even more sloppy on the plate. All in all, there is hardly any craft in the ramen. The other dishes are mediocre, and the sushi rolls are amateurish at best.

A side note: real silverware and plates/bowls are offered only if you dine inside the restaurant's premises. Since we opted to sit in the general area, our orders were prepared as a to-go set. After browsing through their menu, we chose the following dishes: Beef Pho: The broth was quite savory, tangy, and a tad sweet. The thin rice noodles were slightly soft. The filet mignon slices were tender, and the beef balls had good texture. The sauce and bean sprots were given on the side. Bangkok Street Noodle: The broth was flavorful, spicy, and quite tangy. The thin noodles had a balanced firmness. There was a nice blend of sliced BBQ pork, minced meat, meatballs, and fried wontons, then garnished with chili, cilantro and green onion on top. Shrimp Summer Roll: The rice paper wrap had a pleasant chewy texture. The ingredients were super fresh and satisfyingly crunchy. The tanginess of the mango and cucumber went well with slightly sweet hoisin style sauce. The mint provided a quite refreshing taste and aroma to the rolls. A beautiful fusion of colorful visual presentation and exquisite taste. Overall, it was a very enjoyable meal. Highly recommended.

Both very delicious. The wings were all flats so that was a plus alone. Full of good flavor and very crispy. The noodles were delicious as well. I recommend both. The restaurant is decorated very nice and the server was attentive. Sour: the restaurant was very clean but it bothers me so much when some places have a designated area that flies like to circle around that tends to be near the bar. I wish there could be more control to prevent that. I did really enjoy the meal but the portions were small. If it wasn't so good I would almost say the prices weren't worth it. You can definitely share but I would get at least 3 options for 2 people. My husband and I weren't that hungry so it was a decent amount since it was such a late lunch and we were thinking about getting something else shortly after. Overall I hope we are in town again soon as there are other things I'd like to try.

It was an open layout that had plenty of seating inside the restaurant. The decor was moder, but not overdone. We were greeting and pointed to a table but that was it. We realized there was a QR code on the table and we could order our food on there. It took a little while to get our food even though no one else was there. I found it really odd to not even be told to use the QR code to order or be informed of anything. Stewed beef noodles with Ramen- 9/10 My husband ordered this and I tried some. The broth was delicious. Rich and flavorful but not overbearing. The noodles were cooked perfectly and the meat was tender. The bok choy was a needed touch. My husband ate the whole bowl and wanted a second because was so good. Certified Angus Beef hot pot- 8/10 I ordered this with the tom yum broth. I didn't know it was a creamy version of the broth until it was served. I'm not mad about it but it wasn't in the description in case others are dairy sensitive. The broth was flavorful and really delicious. I will say that the beef was tough and it a typical cut that overcooked very quickly in the broth. I'm not positive it was Angus beef grade. I just now realized it was missing the lotus root but gave me zucchini instead. I was also missing my quail eggs. If I didn't read the description to know I was supposed to have them, I would've missed that too. Overall, the food was delicious but the service was 1 star for sure. We were never checked on and the waiter only appeared if we pushed the call button. If you can overlook the lack of customer service, the food is really delicious.
