Appetizer: Fried calamari 2/5. I wouldn't order this again. The vegetables included were fantastic but the calamari was so chewy it was almost inedible. Soup and salad: 5/5. The soup is so light and fragrant. The salad is delicious with its unique ginger dressing that differs from most Japanese around. Sushi- hurricane roll. 5/5. Absolute burst of flavor that all meshes together in one giant bite. One of the best around. Entree: Saik Ja Ka : 4/5. The flavor was absolutely delicious. The meat is cooked well done, which I'm not particular used to with beef but I enjoyed it. The pickled vegetables were amazing. Service 5/5. 0 complaints on service.

We had the coconut curry broth which was a lite curry style but the winner here was the super crunchy wings in a ginger garlic sauce. Also a fav was their dumplings - simply to die for. Their specialty drinks are very creative and delicious- not to be missed. I would go as far to say this is more of a busy drinking place with excellent small plates. Service is a little sluggish for this always full spot so come early and be prepared to wait, walk-in's only. No reservations.

The woman who is the hostess and helped with the takeout order was not happy and very abrasive in the way she spoke to myself and others getting orders. It was a bit challenging to understand her words, but when asked to repeat something, she was clearly upset by it. When we got our two different chicken entrees home, the chicken was very rubbery, fatty, and was thrown out. The vegetables also were not fresh, but seemed to be old or repetitiously heated. Maybe others have had better experiences. Even the best have off days, but there are other choices for this cuisine.

The other dishes lack flavor and spice. Management should really consider doing something as I see this place is going down the drain quickly.

However, we were there for 2 1/2 hours due to the food not being ready on time. We ordered a decent amount of sushi, hibachi , an appetizer and dessert.

You know when you try a dish at a restaurant and from that point on, you judge every version of it against the best one you've ever had? Their spicy crispy tofu did exactly that. What's disheartening is that it's in Memphis, Tennessee and I live in Illinois. How am I supposed to convince my boyfriend to drive 16 hours round trip just for tofu?! Everything else was extremely well executed. Even the jasmine tea was excellent. We actually ended up leaving the city late the next day just so we could go back for lunch. It's that good. If your spice tolerance is low, definitely let them know this dish is spicy, as it should be! One recommendation: if you order the wood ear salad, get the cucumber salad as well and eat them together to balance your palate it's a total game changer. If nothing else, the spicy crispy tofu is an absolute must!!!

I am sure the staff had their hands full. Our server Daniel (name on ticket) was a complicated hot mess. He started out saying that we should have gone to Lao S.C., that it was better food? Never saw that coming. He said he used to work there too - which I wondered why he quit such a new establishment after such a short run? Then it hit me: I began by saying that we generally get the same things (mapo tofu or the cumin lamb - excellent choices), and I wanted to try something different? I was interested in the spicy whole grilled fish in pot! He told me that I wanted the fried chicken sautéed in peppers... his favorite. I said no, I really wanted to try the whole fish. He continues insisting I wanted the chicken dish? 3 more times... and I began suspecting maybe something was amiss, perhaps freshness issue with the fish - I relented and went with the chicken which ultimately was disappointing. Hard cooked chicken scraps edging on burnt tossed not in a sauce but in handfuls of dried peppers. Dry-fried. Very uneventful, hard and dull. Wife went with the shrimp in milk sauce which was extraordinarily delicious. Plump and savory jumbo shrimp in a creamy almost walnut sauce. We ordered a pear Sake from Oregon (which he told us was from Japan), and the spicy dumplings as an appetizer. The dumplings were tender and homemade which we liked but were not overwhelmed with. The Sake was light with a hint of asian pear went well with dinner. Still wishing I was more demanding on the whole fish (or) took his former recommendation and went to the other place?
