She recommended her favorites and was personable but not pushy. We ordered a few drinks and they were all delicious, and generously poured. No complaints there! We also ordered crab puffs and I almost always get crab puffs when they are available, these were FILLED and so light and crispy! Everything you want in a crab puff. I really like the decorations they are pretty but not excessive. All you need to do is look up! Be sure to check out their happy hour and daily specials. I know I will be back.

I got beef and scallops and miso soup, and my bf got Hunan beef with lo mein. The beef was very…read moretender and the scallops were delicious. My dish was probably 60% vegetables and the rest was meat. It was definitely mostly vegetables. I finished all the meat, but it's really only enough for 1 person. I think they could've added more meat. I did not get any rice or lo mein since I'm on a low carb diet. I asked if I could sub the rice for another side dish, and they said no, which was disappointing. The miso soup was fine. It's the instant miso soup that you can buy at Asian grocery stores (typical of every sushi restaurant). My bf said the food was ok. He ate some of the Hunan beef (just the beef part) and some lo mein. The Hunan beef had a lot of baby corn, which I do not like. He did not eat much besides the noodles. Service was good. The decor inside was really nice. There are paper lanterns hanging from the ceiling and the table has a cute Sakura vase. There is a photo spot outside.

We decided to go to the nearby park with our kids before heading to one for dinner. My husband and I were chatting about the options and a nearby man chimed in about Vienmex - come to find out it was Jared, the owner! We talked for a while about other stuff, he was very kind and told us all about his wife's restaurant so we decided to give it a try. Happens to be the best of both worlds cause my husband always wants Mexican food and I always want Asian! It was a Monday night so only 2-3 other parties inside. The place has a fun atmosphere and lots of table games which was great for our 3 kids. The food was awesome! We ordered the monster platter to try a little of everything. I loved the sushi taco! The teriyaki chicken hibarito and orange zest wings were also standout. We also ordered a tropical quesadilla and bang bang shrimp tacos which were both delicious too!

Tried this place because my adult granddaughter recommended it on her experiences with other fusion…read moreplaces. We were delighted! The cozy place with a spacious outdoor area was clean and peaceful. The decor is unusual, like a sort of Christian street art subway/outside place, with a large tree against the back wall and a cloud of cotton pulsing with blue lights. We played tabletop Connect-four while waiting for the delicious food. He had a deep fried burrito which was good but maybe a bit heavy on rice. I had the tacos.. two shrimp and one carne asada. The only problem was a bit too much heat from jalapeños. We had the egg rolls as appetizer, they were crunchy and yummy and served with a cooling dipping sauce. He had unsweet ice tea, nice and fresh and I had a Coke Zero. The Coke Zero came in a can and when I went to buy a second, the owner would have none of it. Gave me a second one. I attempted to put $ in the tip jar for it and he politely refused , 'my place, my rules. It's a blessing to serve you, both.' The menu is quite extensive and we'll go back! The bowls looked appealing! Also there's ice cream but we didn't partake.

Not bad Chicken pancit was very good and my wife gets it without the veggies and I think it would be even better with it. Lumpia meal was very good got the chicken and beef and I was a big fan of both but we got some beef for the road so that tells you whatcha need to know. Will come back again when we are hungry for some pancit and lumpia.

We got a bbq chicken skewer, lumpia meal and chicken pancit. All was good. Garlic rice is good. Nothing to writer home about but complemented the food well. Nothing wrong with the bbq chicken skewer. Pancit was really good but my wife gets it with no veggies. Lumpia was great. Liked the dynamite but loved the beef ones more. Getting some lumpia to go home with. Will eat again.

1 Star -- Deeply Disappointed with Kawa's & Tyler…read more I genuinely expected a smooth and enjoyable evening at Kawa's & Tyler, especially after making reservations well in advance. Unfortunately, what should have been a simple dinner turned into an hour-and-a-half ordeal. Our reservation was for 6:00 PM, yet we were not seated until 7:30 PM. Throughout that entire time, the hostess repeatedly told us the same line: "We're cleaning the grill." However, we watched multiple guests walk in without reservations and get seated immediately at the very grill that was supposedly being cleaned for us. If you do not intend to honor reservations, then simply do not take them. It is incredibly unfair--and frankly unprofessional--to allow walk-ins to bypass guests who planned ahead and booked reservations in good faith. To make matters worse, the wait staff seemed completely unaware of what was happening and continued to repeat the same story for over an hour. If the team isn't informed, they should at the very least refrain from misleading their guests. This experience was not only frustrating but also deeply disappointing. I truly hope management addresses this breakdown in communication and respect for customer time, because what happened tonight was completely unacceptable.

Beware of ordering super spicy: Sometimes your food arrives and you think the chef must be angry that day as the food is almost to hot to eat. My wife's favorite meal is the basil fried rice. She orders this every time we go there. I always order something different. Every meal has been delicious although the duck had the skin on it, which I did not care for. The taste was great but the texture was off putting. Overall this place will continue to be one of you go to restaurants.
