Staff greeted us and got to see it real quick. We and another party was only ones there lunch time. Probably more take out than dine in. Menu selection was huge, so much to choose from. My gf is from china so picked out some noteworthy dishes to try and they did not disappoint! 4/5 stirfry bacon with bamboo shoots was excellent. The bacon is more like the fatty cross section of pork that's thinly sliced. It had a smoky flavor to it which mixes well with the crunchy bamboo and peppers. The spice level was also just right to give the dish a good kick. 3.5/5 fried intestines were also good but just didn't hit as well as the other dishes. Maybe just not crunchy enough. At least also spiced well. 5/5 Salted egg yolk with tofu... I could not stop eating this dish with rice. I don't know what kind of tofu they were using, but it was super silky, but it was also maintaining its form really well in firmness so doesn't break apart in contact. The salty egg yolk flavor balances out with the tofu and rice. It's so it's like a comfort food for me. 4.5/5 beef with Longhorn peppers, definitely on the spicy side, which I love. This dish was a bit softer than normal, but I was fine since we had rice to go with it. The beef strands mixed well with the thin sliced peppers so it was easy chew and the spice packs a punch. Overall, I love this place and will definitely come again when I'm around the area. The menu is so huge that I feel like I have to come back multiple times just to try 80% of the menu.

Someone had recommended this place as their favorite authentic Chinese restaurant, so my wife tried…read moreat that same week. We were not disappointed. The host/waiter greeted us with a friendly smile and brought us to our table. I was definitely overwhelmed by the menu. Before ordering I already knew I had to come back because I just wanted to try so many different things. My wife and I, after much head-scratching, decided to go with the salt and pepper squid, and the cumin beef. They were delivered by a charming woman from the kitchen with a big smile on her face. The human beef was perfect. I've ordered it from places where they used too many of those small red chili peppers in it, but this had a well balanced amount of spice for us, a nice kick, but not HOT! It had the perfect amount of cumin and Szechuan pepper, with just the right amount of green peppers and onions. If you aren't a salt fan, you probably already know to avoid something called salt and pepper squid. On the salty side, but it's supposed to be! It was served on a some crispy cellophane noodles with a really tasty mixture of diced vegetables over the top. I couldn't figure out how they had prepared the diced vegetables, but they were delicious. My wife and I kept putting them on our rice. They have a dish that I had only read about, squirrel fish. I absolutely have to go back so I can try that. It looks amazing.

Built in 1828, the Arcade features a handful of shops and restaurants on the ground floor, with micro-apartments above. Lobanton offers Asian fusion street food with counter service. There are a few tables in a small dining area, along with additional seating in the common mall space. We ordered: Maize Runner (fried) - Sweet corn and chicken dumplings (10) served with a summer fruit mayo dipping sauce. Shrimply the Best - Shrimp tempura, Spam, and egg with tonkatsu sauce and house mayo. Service was prompt, and our food arrived in less than 10 minutes. The dumplings were heavily fried. While we enjoyed the filling, the exterior was overdone and overwhelmed some of the flavor. The shrimp sandwich was quite heavy, although the shrimp tempura itself was tasty. While the food wasn't quite for us, service was quick and friendly, and others may enjoy the fusion-style flavors more than we did.

We are not a fan of cream cheese in sushi, so we have been sticking to the same rolls. We got Bibimbap and the Kimchi Fried Rice. Look. The menu and restaurant is basically Chinese. It's kind of weird to even have it on the menu. I would not order the bibimbap again; it is very gochujang on white rice. The kimchi fried rice is pretty decent Chinese fried rice with some kimchi in there. Both dishes could use a lot more veggies. I got the kumquat with lemon boba and quite enjoyed it.

They also acted like they never received my order but pinned the receipt to my order and I can clearly see the pick up time and order time on it. Do better jtab!

It is easy to hear others conversations given how close the quarters are, but that can also make for fun conversations at your own table. This is one of my favorite Thai places (Cranston and Johnston) and I'll continue to keep coming back!

It came to $40 - cheap if one considers that it would do for yet another meal. Our server was efficient and pleasant. We like the pleasant Cambodian decor. We will return which we do periodically.

Regretfully, this may be one of the worst experiences I've had at a restaurant. The atmosphere was…read moreawkward inside. We were told our order was going to take 15 minutes, and when we return in that time the worker informs us that the food is going to take another 12 minutes because-- to paraphrase-- they were busy packing orders. That 30 minute wait resulted in pickles that tasted like vaguely vinegary cucumbers, dumplings that resembled frozen food in taste and consistency, and medium-boiled eggs that tasted nearly nothing like ajitsuke. The chicken I ordered with my bowl was really the only good thing I got from it, but it was overshadowed by there being about eight times as much rice than the chicken. There were only four pieces of chicken in the bowl and at least 25 bites of unseasoned white rice. Update: As we were leaving, the sole worker in the establishment started smoking a blunt after throwing out the trash. I have to advise you don't come here.

Though the meal was incredibly delicious and the ingredients seemed rather fresh, I was a bit disappointed by the small amount of seafood that was on the soup. Perhaps the small size was because it was regular later than large, but I still expected a bit more. Other than that, the service was great and the owners were efficient but equally polite. Will come back for a seat down dinner sometime to try the larger portion. Of note: they only have seafood or beef options, so they don't have a vegetarian or vegan option on the menu!
