I've been wanting to try more Indian food, and they have a lunch buffet that's perfect for just that. All sorts of chicken dishes, vegetarian dishes, rices, dips and even desserts! Well worth it. If you don't have time to sit and enjoy, I've ordered food to go while popping into Trader Joe's or browsing through changing hands next door then picked it up. Give this place a try!!

This was my first time here and I thoroughly enjoyed everything about this place. If you are a fan of pandas, you would love the decor here because they have everything imaginable that is panda based. And every so often the musical entertainer puts on a panda mask and sings for the crowd. Tonight was not one of those nights that we got to see her wear the panda mask however she did entertain us with many classic hits from Barbra Streisand, Carole King, Liza Minnelli, and many other popular standards that you have all come to love and enjoy throughout the years. She also gave us a bonus treat in having her niece Jennifer come up and sing a couple of 70s disco hits for us. As busy as the night was the service was pretty good and we were pleased. There were 24 of us in our group and we each got waited on without most respect and happiness. I ordered the chicken lo mein and really enjoyed it. That is usually my go to for most Chinese/Asian restaurants. I will have to come in on a day off and try their lunch special because it is reasonably priced whereas the dinner prices are more. TIP: they include your gratuity (tip) in on the price of your bill so you don't have to try and figure out what to tip the wait staff. There is also a separate tip jar for the entertainer. I will be back again as I said to try the lunch special and maybe a special night out again. This was fun and a great way to and a Friday eve (Thursday).

I believe the outdoor patio offers a lighter menu option compared to sitting inside. The staff holds exceptional standards. Not only were they friendly and helpful but they worked as a team. While I'm asking the waitress questions, another staff member comes up and takes the dirty plates from her hands so sly. Now onto the food....words don't do the pictures justice. Everything I ate was amazing. I would absolutely visit again, again, and again! I'm still thinking about the insane flavors each item brought. I would have not ordered the sushi cubes but our waitress said I would enjoy it based on our convo, she was CORRECT! The chicken sliders still keep me up at night dreaming of them. If I lived closer I would order from this place frequently. The drinks were strong and a perfect balance. I've heard you can't go wrong with anything on the menu and I can't wait to test that theory.

Managed to snag a reservation on a busy Friday night around 7:30. Pulled into the lot and they…read morehave valet which is nice but was able to find an empty spot right in front so didn't need it. The place was buzzing with loud electronic music and tons of people dining -- I think because the ceiling is so high the noise is amplified. Because it was so busy it took a while for the server to come over but he did with waters which was nice but then the menus are all on QR codes -- which is annoying because it is hard to look at everything and because the menu is very confusing it would have been nice to see everything on paper. The menu is confusing because the selections are very odd -- I thought it was a mexican-asian/sushi fusion restaurant -- which I guess it is but it was still really hard to create the best food experience when I couldn't see everything available. My friend was hungry so she immediately put in an order for calamari and I was being called to order the blood orange margarita slushie. When the margarita came it was like nothing I have ever seen before. It looked more like a milkshake or like a creamsicle. I dove in thinking it would be too sweet but it was actually quite delicious and I sucked it back in a second! Also I put in an order for the edamame which sounded really good in the description -- "woodfired" and spicy miso butter -- but when they came they were really spicy and the woodfired element was making me cough, strangely enough -- I couldn't finish them! Finally after waiting forever we got the drinks and apps. It then took another 15 minutes to order our food. Again it was busy and my friend and I were catching up so it wasn't a big deal. We wanted a fairly light dinner so we just ordered one roll -- the Fuego, which had yellowtail and a whitefish, chili, cilantro and cucumber plus a pico de gallo on top -- it was very flavorful -- although a bit spicy for those who are spice wimps like me. Overall, thought it was a good meal but wasn't blown away.

Happy Hour deals 4:30 until 8:00 p.m. Several tasty options. Beer is cold, Sake options pretty good, and prices competitive. Portion sizes are plentiful. All servers have been super nice and come by regularly to refill drinks and/or take additional orders. Every appetizer and entree has been good and plentiful. Frequently get too much because everything just sounds so good. Great sashimi, good Ramen, love the Kama, and we enjoy the entertaining video clips played on TV by hostess stand.

I had this place saved for some time as it nearby, and I have to say "thank you" to all my Yelpers as the food and the service matched at the positive feedback. Parking was fairly simple as it's located on the corner of Dobson and Guadalupe, and once inside, the staff was very welcoming and provided the menu. The TVs were some Pet channel full of cuteness (that's the only word that comes to mind for me to describe), while the other had something similar but maybe of bloopers. Either way, it was cool and blended in with the stylishly cool decor. As for lunch, I decided to go with the Bento box that included Beef and Broccoli as the main dish. It came with a side of rice, spring roll, a crab ragoon, and 4 sushi pieces. They did bring out a courtesy salad, which was nice. I went with a fountain drink but they do have Sake, Beer & Wine. Service and speediness of the food were good, and as you can tell by my photo, it was steaming hot when it arrived. Overall, everything was on point, and I think I'll come back and try another Bento box lunch special.

The service is very attentive and kind and FAST! The food (we had edemame, potstickers, corn, Asian salad with shrimp ) honestly it was all good. We even got welcome popcorn as it was my first time- I will say they like things spicy lol! The salad was refreshing and delicious and I appreciate a healthier option at an Asian spot (it's usually always meat teriyaki's and noodles etc). We ended with the key lime pie which was as you would expect! It's a super casual fun spot with quick food and great service- also quite a variety of options on the menu (they even have fries)! Would definitely go again!

Then one day a wonton soup craving hit, but I needed the wontons to be filled with chicken since I don't eat red meat and bam, this place right across the road is one of the few to offer that. I've repeated the wonton soup 5+ times, often with an order of egg rolls which are excellent (a little more spring roll than egg roll). A couple other things I've tried and would repeat are the teriyaki chicken and the cream cheese puffs. On the other hand I've had better chicken potstickers, and the walnut shrimp was terrible (thankfully for me, not my order; unfortunately for my family members, they thought the same). We've dined in once but otherwise taken out. It's very casual (order at the counter) but pleasant/clean enough to enjoy eating there.

It's a hearty hot meal for anyone looking for a quick bite. I thought the appetizer sampler was a good deal if that's what you're looking for. I thought everything was a bit bland for me.

I would not recommend it because it was extremely sweet. It was almost like syrup. And there was no spice whatsoever. Something else may speak to me, but I'm still looking for a good quick Chinese restaurant in the desert.
