    I had to try this place after seeing some Instagram Reels. Lived here for a while but I don't know…read morewhy it took this long to discover this spot. Definitely missing out! Came to visit on Mother's Day lunch time which was full and busy but everything moved quite fast. Our party of 3 were seated as soon as several tables cleared and our order was taken right away. Very impressive on the time order was taken to the food and drinks being delivered so quickly. The quality of the appetizers and entrees are 10/10 and we have to credit our amazing server Phinn who is super attentive and pleasant. The other staff I didn't get names of are also great. Everyone's attention to detail is on point. Amazing experience and looking forward to coming back and trying more things on the menu. A variety of dishes served here- must try their baguette! Nice crunch on the outside but super warm and soft in the inside.

The space is pretty large with plenty of seating, but service was slower than expected. Our server didn't check in much, so we often had to flag him down, which was a bit annoying. FOOD RATING Egg Rolls (4/5) - You can't really go wrong here. Spring Rolls (3/5) - Just okay. Salt & Pepper Shrimp (4/5) - Tasty and enjoyable. Tamarind Wings (5/5) - Really good, one of the highlights. Salt & Pepper Shrimp (5/5) - Ordered again and these were even better. Beef Rib with Garlic Rice (4/5) - Solid dish. Bo'Ne Steak & Fried Egg (S1) - Highly recommend; this was really good. Yellow Curry with Chicken (3/5) - Good, but could use more meat and stronger flavor. DRINK RATING Thai Tea - Just okay. I've had better but you can't really go wrong with the drink. The four of us did a good job clearing most of the table and even ordered extra to-go. Overall, the food was decent and prices felt fair for the portion sizes. Worth checking out for lunch or dinner.

Dont get it twisted, this restaurant is not attempting to create a fusion restaurant. My interpretation is that they want to present to their customers with well crafted, delicious food. And that's exactly what we got. I was surprised to see a very well thought out second dining area. Very lux airport loungy-feel. The wait staff attire was not cheesy at all. They looked elegant and presented food with friendliness and great service. We happened to visit on a Friday night where they had a live band. Music wasnt loud or annoying from where we were sitting but great background music as we ate. They offer 3,4 or 5 course options or you can choose items a-la-cart. We decided on 3-course meal. My plan was to try different items on the menu. If you are well versed in flavor profiles, you're able to see the different items actually can mix. My only suggestion is the menu should be presented a little better. Paper menu doesn't match the vibe of everything else. Everything we ordered was delicious. I really liked this restaurant and I plan on returning.

I love to travel and the aviation/airport lounge concept was intriguing and stood out to me. As soon as we sat down, we were offered hot towels service. Very nice! The menu was a mix of Asian Fusion and Italian food. You can select A La Carte or Prix Fixe Experience. We opt out on the Prix Fixe because that seems to be too much food for one person. We shared a bunch of dishes and they were all pretty good. Nicely presented and good portion. The dish that took me by surprise was the Golden Nest Steak, which was recommended by our server. It was tender, flavorful with fresh ingredients. The crispy nest was a nice touch and elevated the dish. I also enjoyed the complementary vegetable eggroll at the beginning. Our server was dressed in a flight attendant uniform and used a rolling cart to bring out our dishes. I thought that was cute and emphasize the feel of being on the airplane and dining in the sky sort of thing. I have to give them an A for effort.

    I'm honestly heartbroken writing this, but I had to share some love for Z-Town Asian Gastro Bar…read more This place was something special. From the moment you walked in, the vibes were always on point--good music, great energy, and a crowd that just made you feel like you were part of something. The staff were always welcoming and attentive, and the food never missed. Everything about Z-Town just hit right. It's devastating to hear about the unfortunate event that led to their closure. My heart goes out to everyone affected. RIP to those who lost their lives--sending prayers, love, and strength to their families, friends, and the entire Z-Town crew during this incredibly difficult time. Z-Town was more than just a spot to eat and drink--it was a place where memories were made. I'm grateful I got to experience it. Hoping one day something can rise again in its place. Until then, much love always.

They were playing all the old great throwback songs. Food we ordered was aesthetically appealing AND delicious! The tower we got was delicious and tasty. A great place to go with a group since the drinks are so big! Only downside is they don't do single drinks, so go with a group! They are also a tad on the pricier side. Service started off great at first but then they never checked on us again after we got our food. Server disappeared and we kept having to flag someone down for stuff and even waiting a long time for them to bring the bill/come back. Would come back but I hope we get better service

    Yum! We had the japchae and tteokbokki with cucumber salad on the side…read more The japchae was a hearty yet light mix of glass noodles, red bell pepper, carrots, spinach, mushrooms, onions, scallions, Bulgogi with soy garlic sauce, and sesame seeds. We had a pleasant cucumber salad in place of kimchi this time. It was a refreshing mix of onions, scallions, and Korean red chili powder yet not spicy. It was great to balance the spicy tteokbokki! The delicious yet fiery tteokbokki had nice chewy rice cakes, flat fish cakes, and a couple of seaweed wrapped japchae bundles. The scallions, onions in hot pepper sauce, and melty mozzarella cheese were delightful Seating was nice and open and the simple wood tables and chairs were nice and felt homely too. It's no surprise to find out about the many locations!

It was nice to try a few of the items I'd never had before (Bulgogi Fries, Potsticker & Street Corn). I wanted the pickled radish, rather than the coleslaw it comes with, so I asked to sub that out. Everything was very tasty! The chicken had light batter and was crispy. The fries were packed with flavor and had a bit of a kick to them. I really liked each item. Service was excellent. They were attentive and efficient, refilling water throughout the meal.

This time around it's just me and my son, and I knew we weren't going to eat like that. This is such a good gem. We went in and it just opened so not busy at all. The restaurant is very homey! It's not huge but the tables are spaced out fairly. By the time we sat down and ordered that's when people really started coming in. My son and I ordered the combo tempura and the galbi. The tempura came out and it was really good and light, I like that it wasn't oily! The galbi came with the small dishes of fish cake, kimchi and cucumber. It was really good. The galbi was nice and tender with little charred pieces, on a bed of sweet onion on a sizzling plate. We cleared everything. It was delicious. We will be coming back for mom and son dates. Didn't try the Japanese food but we intend to!

I suddenly figured out that it is too pricey. So I requested to check up the menu. And they have two menus. Told me that because I ordered over the phone so the price is different. 4. I figured out they charge me $1.00 more. As I asked, they eventually returned $1.00 cash to me. To be honest, they don't have any business during the peak hours. That is sad. But, I don't think I will go back to there again.

    I have seen this restaurant so many times while driving along Whitelock Parkway and decided to…read morefinally give it a try. The restaurant is located on the corner of a shopping center. The parking lot had plenty of spots available. I was warmly greeted before being seated to a table along the window. The menu has many options of popular Thai dishes. I thought the RAO's platter was the perfect appetizer to order so I could try multiple dishes at once. I almost always try a rice dish at any Asian restaurant so I chose crab fried rice. At the last minute I decided to add the crying tiger to my order. Especially since the server said it wasn't very spicy. Food arrived without too much of a wait. The platter was delicious and I appreciated three sauce options for different palates. The egg roll was nice and crispy, not too oily. The wonton was yummy. The chicken was fine for a skewer, but the other two were my favorites. The crab fried rice was decent. I would prefer a little more crab because as I am writing this out, I don't remember seeing big pieces of crab meat. The crying tiger was a deliciously prepared NY steak. I was able to request how to have the meat prepared and asked for medium rare. The meat had a nice pink color and was tender. There were some fatty pieces, but that is to be expected. We ordered mango sticky rice and asked that it be brought out at the end of the meal. The dessert was prepared as expected. The mango was sweet and the rice was chewy. I liked that the condensed milk was served on the side so we could add it to our liking. The dining room had beautiful decor and artwork along the walls. I spent some of the time waiting for my food looking around and enjoying the art pieces.

One of my favorite dishes is the Larb Salmon, especially paired with the Fried Chicken Skin. I also really enjoy their Pad Thai and Nam Khao. Try their Green Thai Tea, it's refreshing with a nice jasmine tea flavor. On my most recent visit with friends, we tried the BBQ Pork. It was okay, but not really my favorite. The Thai Basil Eggplant with chicken was good. I'm still not completely sold on their papaya salad though. It's been a bit hit or miss for me.

I forgot his name, but he did such an amazing job, especially tasked with handling a bigger party that's my family. Amazing spirit throughout the dinner and was extremely kind. He guided us through the menu and gave us recommendations and even told us we were ordering too much for our tables (which we should've listened to him... he was right, lol).
