Main dish my favorite chorizo pollo . The chicken is cooked with some seasoning that is so good you can eat it that way . The chorizo is that good chunky , slightly spicy and oily good stuff .

Stopped in today and tried this hidden restaurant. NOT IMPRESSED! We've eaten at most of the…read moreMexican places around Johnson City. For a newer place, they were PRICY! Employees stood around on their phones. The food was "OK". Their redeeming factor is that they had a full bar, beer, wine, and liquor. There were only 2 other couples, and I sat alone at the bar. The bartender, too, was on his phone. Three servers spoke in Spanish, which I know makes many Americans uncomfortable! This is America, where we speak ENGLISH to assimilate as our forefathers all did with pride! The final straw for me was that the double doors on the right side were locked when I began to leave after eating! Those doors need to be unlocked during business hours! It is a Fire code violation to have it locked! I will wait until November to go back - if they are still around! As I said pricey for mexican food!

So we glad we found it. They not only serve Thai food, but sushi as well. So that is a plus! However, three stars is due to poor service. The female was kinda rude when we requested less spicy because my dad has low tolerance. She barely came by to refill our water. She probably had a bad day, and we were the unlucky ones to receive her service.

Food arrived promptly. Service was friendly and they seemed to have regulars so you could hear conversations throughout which was enjoyable. The environment appeared to be clean. There weren't any tables that needed to be waited or bussed. Always a good sign.

Updated review from a few days later: The restaurant…read morefraudulently changes your tip on your receipt. This is major business fraud. Good thing I took a picture of my receipt when I had written the tip very clearly. The restaurant decided to instead change the tip and put whatever they wanted. This is fraudulent and is being reported to the appropriate institution. Original: Good food, decent service, decent atmosphere. To start off, food is actually pretty good! Vegetable spring rolls are crispy and tasty, however the duck sauce that it is served with is a little weird. It is not sweet like any other restaurant. They also have a decent hot and sour soup, however, the real star is their tom kaa soup (coconut soup). That soup is really flavorful and is great with steamed tofu. I also should suggest asking for the spice rack so that you can add a little spice to the soup. Make sure to get the spicy basil fried rice. This is really flavorful, and we got it hot (on their spice scale). This was a real stand out. We also got the pad Thai noodle dish which was pretty good. I do think the restaurant could've done a little bit more to make the dish flavorful, as the noodles were definitely on the lighter side for taste, and they were also clumped into one big mound. Lastly, we got the yellow curry with steamed tofu. This was pretty nice and mildly spiced. Big chunks of potato, pineapple, and bamboo shoots are the default vegetables in the curry. The restaurant is able to make many dishes either gluten-free or vegan. If you have either of these dietary restrictions, definitely check with the staff as they are able to accommodate. Now, service was OK. We were only checked on one time during our meal, and we had to keep getting the attention of the staff to provide us with extra utensils or bowls/plates. Our waters were left empty for a decent amount of time, and it seemed like staff were indifferent. This wouldn't be the worst, however, the restaurant default forces a 20% tip on groups of six or more. As we fell under that, I expected better service. Please also be aware that the restaurant forces a 3% surcharge for credit cards. This is a little disappointing as most credit card assures charge restaurants less than 3% for a transaction fee, so this restaurant is just passing on more fees to the customer, even more than what some credit card companies add. So just be prepared if you come as a party of six to pay an extra 23% on top of your bill (20% mandatory gratuity and 3% credit card fee).

I've been forcing myself to finish the phat see-ew and chicken satay - I don't hate it but I would rather eat something else.

Me and my wife recently stopped here while we were in the area to visit a vegan establishment and…read moreit turns out that this is the only full-fledged exclusive vegan restaurant in the area. The lady that took care of us was very nice for the moment we walked in and she made us felt like we were at home. Price point here, the food here price wise was very affordable! You can't find prices like this anywhere else. I ordered a backbone smoothie and the Smoothie had sea moss in it which is really cool. I even tried one of their burgers which was absolutely delicious and filling up. We even stuck around to stay for dessert and I've never had a vegan pumpkin pie with chocolate chips in it which was a unique experience but it was absolutely great. There are a few tables inside and the wait time can be a bit long. She does exclusive meals for the holidays as long as you put your order in far in advance. Overall, you're not going to find another store like this and I highly recommend you check this out even if you are not vegan but if you want to experiment with being health conscious.

I had the KFC inspired bowl, The mash potatoes are really good. But, overall...very much a meal I could have created at home. The plant based bites tastes like it came from the bags you'll find in the frozen section at Walmart. It tasted as if she just warmed it up and threw corn in the bowl and said " Wa-la !! " I'm a Vegetarian and my tastes bud is rooted in Mississippi...I know good food and this was not it. I could have made this 10 times better. I paid $22 for that smoothie and bowl....with a few crumbs on the tables. I will never visit this place again or recommend it to my Vegan/Vegetarian friends.
