The juices are good, but you're paying $10 or $11 for a juice, which is insane in this economy. Come on, bring it back down. You're not even getting a large cup--it's just a medium.

I finally got the perfect opportunity to stop in yesterday and I wish I had done so sooner. The space is small, but clean and comfortable. I ordered the ginger salad and the rice pancake balls with quail egg and both items were prepared quickly. The ginger salad is incredible. It's like the most perfect salad I've ever eaten. Not exaggerating at all, this is one of the most delicious things I've had this year. I am a ginger lover, but I still wasn't sure what it would be like to eat this much ginger. This dish almost treats ginger like a vegetable and not just a seasoning. The textures of this dishes really make it stand out. There are so many different textures in here that create a complex and fascinating bite. The crisp, finely shredded cabbage and ginger make up the base, which is mixed with various crunchy nuts and seeds and soft juicy pops of diced tomato. The flavors in this dish are intense. This quantity of sinus clearing ginger would be inedible without being held in balance by a good deal of salt and seasoning in the dressing and the rich, earthy savoriness of the nuts and seeds. I was really amazed by this dish. It was outstanding. After the extreme bright salty flavor of the salad, the rice pancake balls don't pack quite the same punch. However, the quail egg in here is cooked beautifully. It came out warm, with a soft jammy center and the white was a soft silky jelly. The whole thing is surrounded by a slightly chewy layer of rice based pancake. The flavor of the rice comes through, and the exterior is slightly crispy. These had so much richness from that egg yolk. It was so savory and comforting even though I've never eaten anything like this before. Really looking forward to my next visit here as I found the two items I tried to be remarkable and outstanding.

I did ask for the chipotle Greek yogurt to be on the side and said they put it on top. I will say they are a hit or miss when asking for sauce on the side sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. Also, unfortunately, on this day we ordered they had no steak available. But the flavors were popping, and everything was so fresh and flavorful. When the order came, it was warm but not as hot as I thought it was gonna be. 8/10 for this!

I'll say that I wished the cheese was a bit more shredded but that's my nit-picky complaint. I honestly have nothing bad to say, this was good and their queso was FUEGOOOO. My only regret is not getting a bigger queso. Honestly, it rivals Moe's in that way cause it was THAT good. I didn't get any pictures of the space itself, but it was very sizable for a good amount of folks to sit down and eat their meals. Overall, I loved it, and I can't wait to go back!

And don't forget the large selection of teas, juices and coffee beverages! Most people order takeout since there are only 2 small tables which seat 2. Everything is made to order, so you're guaranteed fresh beverages and food! On a random Wednesday evening, we ordered a couple of bowls and beverages. Service was impressively fast, considering it's made to order! We ordered two combo rice bowls & beverages: -- Beef Bulgogi Rice Bowl plus Black Milk Tea ($19.75): this bowl was fantastic! Fresh ingredients; well balanced and flavorful. The milk tea was good also; smooth, strong tea flavor. I would get this combo again! -- Crispy Chicken Rice Bowl plus Mango Milk with boba ($20.25): my 11 yr old niece ordered this and devoured it! lol She's been to Mr Buncha a few times, and this is her fave meal combo there.

If there were a footrest bar at the bottom it might've helped, but as it was, my butt was not fitting on that seat. I basically had one foot on the floor and one on my friend's chair just to keep myself from sliding off. Graceful! We ordered two espresso martinis and a slice of tiramisu. Both were absolutely lovely and the perfect way to end the night. The staff were friendly, fast, and really on top of things. Next time I'd definitely come for a table, and maybe a proper meal, because the dishes coming out of the kitchen looked divine. My only gripe? Seventeen dollars for an espresso martini feels... ambitious for Ridgewood. It's not like this is some high-end cocktail bar, it's an elevated pizzeria. I'm not sure I'd come back specifically for the drinks, but I'd absolutely come back for the food and the service. I took home a second piece of that tiramisu. It was so delicious!
