    Broccoli Garlic and Tofu Garlic
    Mariana W.

    Best Szechuan food in Merrimack area. The only one in Wilmington. They also have Japanese option as well. Service is fast and wait staff are knowledgeable though they're not always around much. Super recommend

    Ordered some takeout online, the site was easy to navigate, for dinner. Upon arrival was thought the venue was nice. I didn't realize it was a lounge as well. I want to come back to have the eat in experience. Upon arrival to pick up my order, the front desk staff were really nice and the process was easy. The food was good! We both ordered the spicy broccoli with brown sauce but with different spice levels. There was not a differentiation between the two so we had to sniff and guess. The extra spicy was not actually spicy and the little spice had no spice, which was disappointing. The scallion pancakes were good. I expected them to have a little more crunch from the fry, but the taste was still superb. The miso soup was really good as well. We will definitely try this location again, especially since the menu shows a variety of Asian cuisine.

    Always reliable and consistent quality and portions. Sushi is fresh. Appetizers were out quick, drinks are well made. Staff is efficient and friendly. Kind of a hidden gem in a strip mall but it's worth the trip.

    Enjoying a great lunch deal here today! All lunch specials under $10 and they include soup, appetizer and rice. I love the miso soup here and the crab Rangoon has a great crab/cream cheese mix. The rice is actually a pork fried rice and not the usual cheap vegetable rice( you can get white or brown rice as well). If you like bbq boneless ribs, you have to get the honey appetizer ones! Always come here when Im around.

    First time here after many years of working in the Wilmington area. We ended up getting lunch specials. I got the L3 which came with soup/rice/chicken fingers/wings/beef teriyaki and boneless spareribs. A pretty good sample size if you ask me. So let's break it all down. Restarant Setup (nice little place) Service (she was very good) Soup (cold) Rice (90% sure it was reheated) Chicken Fingers (alot of batter) Chicken Wings (best thing I had) Beef Teriyaki (nothing special) Boneless Spareribs (ALL FAT) 2.75 's (average at best)

    I've never had so much beef in a noodle dishes from a restaurant before. I always hesitate getting…read morebeef from Thai places since it is usually the fake tasting beef you find in American Chinese food but was pleasantly surprised. - Pho flavor was definitely different than what you would find in a Viet place and was good. - Pad Kee Mao: The rice noodles probably could be cooked better, reminds me of how it would come out if I cooked at home, all clumped together and broken. The flavor of the dish more than made up for it.

    Small, strip mall eatery mostly geared toward takeout, but with a handful of tables for dining in…read more It's a one-person show (the owner) at the front of the house, so you'll need some patience waiting for her to answer the phone, take care of takeout customers, tend to other tables, etc. So be kind and more importantly, plan your water intake accordingly. Overall, a MUCH-better-than-you'd-expect place with compelling flavors and really nice execution. General tip: Skip the copycat Chinese and Vietnamese restaurant fare that's probably there out of obligation, and stick to the Thai items where they really shine, and especially the entrees. Chicken Star: Flattened Thai style popcorn chicken, with decent crunch and a mostly pleasant flavor, although it's sweeter than it needs to be. A common area condiment station has ingredients to kick this up, but it's fine as is and a pretty good value too. Hot Wings: Less of a value, as the price has gone up and the portion has gone down of late (that's the case at all restaurants in the post-pandemic era), but these are large wing pieces, cooked to nail the contrast between crisp exterior and juicy center. Sweet tangy heat on top, basically your typical Thai sweet chile sauce a la Mae Ploy, but well executed. More of a concession to an American palate, but delicious nevertheless. Tofu Triangles: Crisp outside, tender inside, and enjoyable enough for carnivores that we got two orders for our party of six. Peanut dipping sauce on the side. I kick that up with chile condiments. Pork skewers (occasional special): Often called moo ping, with a lively thin, herby, crunchy dip, often called nam jim jaew. Tender and nice flavor with or without the condiment. Seaweed Salad: A healthy app that's a refreshing counterpoint to both the hot and the sweet. Have had it many times. Papaya Salad: Also refreshing, with lots of crunch, and lots of heat too, so it's more about its own flavor than counterpoint. Crisp, refreshing, but very mild compared to other versions I've had, especially Cambodian ones. You can vary the heat to your preference, as you can with all dishes. Chicken Larb: Served warm and fully cooked, this salad is spicy, herbal, sour, and light. Large portion. Khao Soi: Excellent noodles underneath, with just enough of the firmness still intact; the crunchy noodles on top are a higher grade than most. Made with protein of choice (I choose chicken), thick and spicy yellow curry, onions, scallions, pickled mustard greens, and herbs. Every aspect well executed. Chicken Grapow: Usually with ground crumbly chicken, sometimes long shreds, with a fairly light brown sauce leaning less on oyster sauce and more on the heavy use of sweet basil. Irresistibly flavored, it's one of their best dishes. Good flavor from the spices and good use of basil. Can be made as spicy as you like. Other Mix 'n' Match Plates: Like many Thai restaurants, you can pick your protein, or for non-meat eaters, vegetables, tofu, or seafood. All of these have been very good. There's no particular specialty I'd recommend over any other; go with your instincts. Pork Belly: Crispy but sometimes a little too fatty. Fish with String Bean: Fried, crunchy, tasty. Mildly spicy. Salmon Choo Chee: A thick slab of salmon, well cooked in its own right even before the sauce additions, but made tastier after a thick, tasty curry sauce whose heat can be customized. Served with broccoli crowns. Enjoyable as Thai food or simply as seafood. Beef Salad: Slightly warm in this rendition. Spicy, refreshing, faint hints of sweet, and a nice crunch from toasted rice. Sweet and Sour Fish: Not unlike what you might find in an old school Chinese restaurant, but with fried fish. Pineapples and cherry tomatoes, not cherries. Nice texture warm. Traditional and authentic? Who's to say, but a good dish for someone who's less adventurous with the unfamiliar Thai fare. Tofu with Eggplant: Crisp large chunks of tofu with crunchy vegetables, and the namesake eggplant velvety beneath the exterior.

    Another date night, yes it is most every Saturday night, and the choice was sushi, so we went to…read moreOye's. Oye's is a combination Japanese/Chinese restaurant with an excellent sushi selection, with many a special roll. The sushi is made to order, and if you so chose, you could watch the sushi chef in action. Happy to report that it is really, really fresh. If you have ever had sushi that is not, then you know how important freshness is. The unagi is exceptional!!! There are plenty of different, interesting rolls too, so there is choice for everyone. We did have some shumai as well, but they were less than ideal, a bit "doughy" and they came out a bit cold. Oh, well, you can't win em all I guess. We do like wine with our sushi, she had a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc and I had the house Chardonnay, both paired well with the sushi. Final word about service, it was exceptionally quick. Shumai, wine and seaweed salad were out almost immediately, with the sushi not far behind. All of this in a relaxed, comfortable setting. Go there, you will not be disappointed. The Chinese dishes that we saw served looked delicious, too.
