I grew up eating congee as a common breakfast meal but had forgotten about it for a while now since…read moreI've been on a more strict diet. My sister wanted to try this place out because she loves congee and I thought why not! We got the tofu bowl to share and wow it was so delicious. The warm congee is perfect on a cold fall or winter day. I love all the different toppings they add especially the pickled vegetables and peanuts to add texture to the meal. Instead of just using white rice, they used different mixes of grains for the congee - making it more healthy. They got rid of the scallion pancakes which was a bummer because it looked so good in the photos. They also have a little shelf market selling different Asian cooking ingredients. I couldn't narrow down to a specific country, I think this place is meant to be more Asian-fusion.

It is cute little intimate restaurant with an open kitchen and a small store inside. I ordered it to go and it was still pretty hot when I got home. The soup was very flavorful and tasty. The broth really soothed my body and senses. No noodles were in it. I believe this is an Indonesian restaurant. The little store sold noodles sauces games and books. I am definitely interested in coming back to try other items on the menu.

The base price of the Ramen is $20 (protein is not included in the price), then they charge for egg and 1 slice of pork ($5 each), so you could really be paying an upwards of $30-$35...God forbid I want 2 slices of pork!! This is a HUGE turn off for me, especially considering the competition. For example if you go to Tonchin, the pork and egg are included in the price ($23) and the ramen is amazing!!...and it's a Michelin star restaurant on top of that. I prefer more bang for my buck, so I don't think I'd order from here again.

The food was delicious, I will definitely return. There was no line to order when I arrived, but we were directed to order at a kiosk since they were short staffed up front. The young man at the counter was very busy but kind and I could see the workers in the kitchen working hard as well. The ambiance was typical for a fast casual restaurant. Some people grabbing takeout orders, delivery app workers doing pickups, and dine in patrons at tables. There were seating options for couples as well as groups. I definitely do recommend and will return next time I'm in the area.

It has a lovely backyard and spacious dining room for what at first glance seems like a hole in the wall. I'd stopped in once before and ate outside on a sunny day for just drinks. This time I came with my family for a quick dinner. We sat in the cosy dining room and were served by the owner, a friendly and humble gentleman who insisted we come back when we stopped by in the summer. To our delight, he remembered us! I ordered the lamb ragou pappardelle and my family split an order of fries. I found my dish to be surprisingly hearty, with a rich sauce that wasn't too heavy. The al dente pasta graced with a dollop of ricotta and fresh basil created a balanced dish that wanted neither salt nor pepper, and could be enjoyed as is. It warmed me thoroughly on the coldest December evening of the year. This place is a hidden gem that could use some local love. It's right close to my barber so I definitely will be back.

It's a circular chef's counter, a bit lowlit but with the spotlight being on the food. The staff were very nice, engaging and super helpful for recommending drinks tailored to preferences. I got the drink pairing with nice pours. The selections were thoughtful and to me paired well in enhancing each dish's flavors. The highlighted courses were the Chawanmushi with a very impressive amount of truffle (the other diners and I were in shock with how much kept getting shaved!) - just an explosion of flavor - the caviar tartate was extremely well done (though is an add on) with the mildly salty caviar balancing the tender and sweeter beef tartare. The chef's were great at explaining each dish and answering questions. I really appreciated the Polish influence from the head chef in dishes and experiencing that fusion. The price is quite reasonable and cheaper than other kaiseki in NYC (which tend to be $200+ base). Would definitely recommend and return! Most kaiseki restaurants are in Manhattan so this is definitely a great addition to Brooklyn.

We got the 9 piece with their not hot sauce and garlic ginger aioli on the side. The extra sauce was delicious but the wings didn't need it!

The cornbread was fluffy, the mac was solid too but the wings are really the standout. Pretty reasonably priced too for all the food you're getting. Definitely give it a try!
