The hibachi chicken I ordered was cooked perfectly and tasted alright but I didn't care for the sauce that it came with and the salad I ordered was confusing because it came in two containers one big and one smaller. It was a basic salad as they usually are but one of my favorite parts about this whole meal was that ginger dressing they put on top of the salad. My husband didn't care for the general tso's chicken very much when I thought it was okay. Everything was just okay, not bad & not great. Would I eat here again? Yes... but it wouldn't be my first choice. I wish I could give them 3.5 stars.

I ordered the Thai drunken noodles, and they were spicy, well-balanced, and full of flavor. The service was also very nice and made the experience even better. Parking can be a little tricky, but it's absolutely worth it. I came here for a date night, and it was the perfect spot. Definitely a place I'll keep coming back to and keep recommending.

Consistently every week, Lona's comes up in our conversation and our rotation…read more Whether we're picking a place for dine-in or takeout, or we have guests interested in a quick bite, Lona's unique wraps, tasty side dishes, speediness, unpretentious charming neighborhood location, friendly service, and excellent price:performance ratio is a winner. Standouts for us include the smoked brisket wrap, bamboo stew, spicy eggplant, stir fried glass noodles. However every item on the menu is great.

Recently tried Lona's as it's been recommended to me by multiple people, I would say I understand…read morethe hype. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, big portions and bold flavours (although it is a tiny bit too salty for me). There is still that balance of spicy, tangy, and sweetness and you can tell a lot of care goes into the sauces. The wraps are packed with fillings but is still light. The aubergines are also flavourful! The vibe is casual and a bit quirky, kind of feels like someone's home. Plenty of seating and there's also a patio. I would come back and try their other dishes.

Biggest frustrating was the kids chicken strip meal - 2 smaller strips and only about 10 fries for the price left kids and parents a bit disappointed. Do recommend - food is delicious.

This is the BEST restaurant that I've been to in STL so far!!…read more First, the service was absolutely wonderful. Our server was super nice and knowledgeable about the menu and very attentive to our table. The food was purely amazing: - The Sake Sashimi was absolute chef's kiss (rate: 10/10). The fresh sashimi in the ginger mint sauce left us speechless, the salsa gave a fresh and fruity burst of flavor, and even the fried chips on top had a ton of flavor! - The Isaan Hamachi (rate: 9.5/10) was also a must! I first tried the candied garlic on top, and it was truly sweet with only a hint of garlic. The yellowtail was also super fresh, and the coconut sauce brought out even more flavor from the yellowtail (and masked any fishy taste)! - The Massachusetts Scallops (rate: 9.5/10) was one of the best scallops I've ever had. Topped with crab and combined with the pea puree, everything complemented each other so well. There were only two scallops, but they were large and super filling. - The Shrimp Toasts had layers and layers of flavor (rate: 9/10)! The shrimp was inside of the toast, creating a super umami flavor, and then the light and fruity topping and sauce, along with the thin slice of cucumber, truly made this a party in my mouth. - The Chili Garlic Noodles were super nutty and so good (rate: 8/10)! The noodles were slightly spicier than expected, but the spice was a quick burst of flavor, so the spice didn't overpower the dish at all. The noodles were mixed with vegetables and topped with a crunch - definitely make sure to mix before eating to get the different textures and flavors in each bite! We also got cocktails (Pretty in Pink & Sands in the Sun), and both were really yummy. Last, we got a dessert - homemade ice cream by the Sous Chef that day: soy ice cream with red bean! Flavors were all subtle but together they created such a unique and beautiful end to the meal. Came here for my birthday, and I will certainly be returning!

Gotta say I went into this buffet style restaurant with low expectations. I was super excited that…read moreI was wrong. I don't ask for much with Asian buffets but the fried rice has to be good. It was right on point!! The selection was awesome!! 4 lines of good food. Seafood was exactly as it should be. They even had marinated steak strips. Sweet and sour chicken was exactly as it should be. Honestly i was really pleasantly surprised. Only thing that was not on par was the crab meat "imitation". It was marinated in something that I'm not quite sure of. Didn't recognize the taste. Be cautious with this. Service was meh. Brought us our cokes and that was about it. Overall, no real complaints. Enjoy!!!

Neither the food nor the service was commensurate with the price of the weekend buffet. We came in at suppertime on a Saturday and was pleased to see that we'd beaten the supper rush. Well, there was no supper rush - never a good sign. I was immediately disappointed to find that some of my favorite Chinese buffet foods were not included on this buffet. To be fair, there were items that I don't typically see on the Chinese buffets that I've frequented, just not what would appeal to me. Of course, that's not their fault. I love Low mein, but theirs was soggy and tasteless. The hot food was warm at best, which doesn't bode well with fried shrimp and fried mushrooms. We overlooked several good restaurants to scratch the itch for Chinese cuisine, but we left still itching.

The restaurant is relatively small with a handful of tables inside, and a counter where you can pick up to go orders. They have several different options on the menu for you to choose from, many with both veggie and meat related items. There are several different soups, salads, noodles, and curries available. We started with fresh spring rolls and edamame. The spring rolls were incredibly fresh and are made to order every day. He did mention that they usually run out because they are a favorite. I elected to go with the drunken noodles with chicken, spicy #4 for my main dish, and my husband went with the pad Thai with chicken. My dish was incredibly tasty, lots of great flavors, the chicken was fantastically cooked, and the heat level was perfect. I absolutely enjoyed the food here and I look forward to coming back. I also learned that they have a great lunch special during the week starting on Tuesdays, so I may have to come back to check that out.
