The inside still looks really cute, but my mom and I didn't get to sit in the woven chairs even though it was pretty empty when we went. I probably should have asked to move tables, but I didn't want to make it a hassle for the staff. We ordered the cheesy crab wontons, shrimp pad thai, and crispy chicken. The crab wontons were really good , crunchy and filling are well seasoned it wasn't just stright up cream cheese, I enjoyed them a lot with the sweet chili sauce. The crispy chicken was also really yummy, can't say the same for the the pad thai tho it was so, so salty. I'll continue to come back in the future!

It's on the sweet side, but I needed something sweet as a buffer since some of the dishes we ordered were a bit too salty. -Thai-Style Ceviche, 11/10. No friggin' notes. I highly recommend. Portion is a bit small, because I could have eaten MORE. -Sweet & Sour Fried Chicken was decent. We ordered the Small and it was about 5-6 boneless pieces. Very unique. I recommend to try if you like fried chicken. -Wok-Fried Yu Choy was wayyyy tooooo salty. Hubs & I wanted some greens and it was fried with generous amounts of garlic, but it just got saltier and saltier as we ate it. -White Curry w/ Brisket Burnt Ends, this dish was a little bit of a mixed bag. The white curry (roasted cauliflower + coconut cream) was delicious, but did it pair well with the Brisket Burnt Ends? Not really IMO. I don't think the flavors match. I'm not exactly sure what would pair well with the white curry, maybe some veg or tofu...but BBQ fusion with the curry wasn't the best. 2 unisex restrooms available, the one I used was clean. Service was a little scattered. We got the Yu-Choy first, followed by the ceviche a few minutes later. But the Fried Chicken and White Curry took a while to come (about another 10-15 mins. to come). We were lucky to find some street parking in the neighborhood nearby.

It's definitely a nice spot for dinner. The service was great, and our food came out pretty quickly. You order at the counter first, and they give you a number to take to your table.

We ordered the pho with steak and brisket, and it was delicious! We also got the vermicelli with pork, which had a lot of flavor. The portions are pretty generous, so the vermicelli would be great to share. Overall, we had a great experience at Luc Lac. If you're craving Vietnamese food, I definitely recommend checking this place out!

Let me tell you, if they had this place in Seattle, it would be poppin' for sure. Loved the decor, and the service was amazing. We were a party of 8, and they did the most to get us seated. They even combined two tables for us without too much wait. We appreciated this so much! This is one of those places where you order at the counter, and they bring your food to your table, although they also seat you. So you wait in line to order, and then you wait a little longer to get a seat. The menu is on a huge, lit-up billboard behind the counter, so you'll see folks crowded in that area trying to read it. The food was alright, no one was particularly blown away. I got a pho, and I would say it was okay. I think you come here more for the vibe and scratching that craving than for out-of-this-world food/flavors. The music is good, the servers were all super friendly, and it's a great vibe. Fyi, there's mostly street parking.

Brunch in Portland, Oregon…read more.. After I read reviews about Portland's Chinatown, I searched for a dimsum place outside of Chinatown and found Jade Rabbit I liked the name of the place and saw that they had two kinds of rabbit-shaped dimsum! Another cool thing is that their menu is vegan... that means that I don't have to worry about dairy products that give me pain. We found free street parking about a half a block away and waited for Jade Rabbit to open at 11am. We didn't have reservations, but we're seated immediately. The decor was great! I enjoyed looking at all of the Rabbit figurines! The furniture was colorful and the convenient restroom had interesting decorations, too! The service was okay. Some items were not available and our server recited the list that included chow funn. Shucks! She came back later and said that the chow funn was, in fact, available... yay! Our server seemed a bit nervous as her hand shook and placed the special menu upside-down... LOL! We won't bite you! She recommended the Ube Jam drink - it was made with coconut cream... yes! The chow funn was a bit bland. We added some soy sauce. The Puto Pao Bunny Bao had an unusual flavor - maybe the brown sugar can be omitted because the black garlic and vegan pork might be fine without it? The Jade Rabbit Dumplings also could be more savory. Something was off... and the filling was a bit sparse. Anyway, maybe we could have ordered better, but we got what we wanted! Thank you for the cute food! Note: 22 percent is added to the bill - so no need to tip.

It's crispy and tasty, and the curry that comes with it is so good. It's a must. I like how they cook the BBQ pork until it's tender and tasty. I usually like fatty BBQ pork, but this one is really good. The fried chicken is also juicy and crispy. I like the coconut ice cream in the dessert, but I'm not a big fan of the crispy rice. It's a little too salty but too sweet at the same time. Great service and atmosphere. They allow dogs in their patio area, and they even brought a water bowl for our dog.

First, if you order only one thing off the ala carte menu, get the French fries. They're amazing. The whole menu offering is also worthy a try - with an emphasis on combining uniquely prepared vegetables with a protein. But for me the French fries are a must not miss dish. Although there is an eclectic mix of cocktails on the menu u, the beer and wine offerings are sparse. I would imagine this is a business decision that is based on the ever growing market challenges of running a restaurant in a competitive environment like Portland with such narrow margins. The service was kind, informative and busy. We had a couple of items slip, like drink reorders, but by the by, our service was very good. The take home, go. Oma's is worth a try and I think it is all the better experience with a group so you can all share a delicious family style meal. One thing, maybe bring your own wine and pay the corkage fee.

The only dish we didn't care for was the rainy Rangoon, but I enjoyed trying it all. Overall, amazing flavor, and will definitely be back, but wish portions were a bit heftier- though, between our party or 8, 4 apps and 4 mains were good enough.

It had so many different flavors and textures, and somehow they all worked perfectly together. The waiter also suggested mixing everything together before taking the first bite, which I really appreciated. The ambiance was super cute, with a cozy little tiki-bar vibe inside, and they also have a few outdoor tables. The service was exceptional throughout. This is an easy 5-star review from me.

They asked 3 times if we wanted to sit inside or out. Kinda felt pressured to commit. Should've listened to my gut at that point. Started off with a beer, Dr Pepper & fried pickles. Soda pricing was high, but I wanted caffeine to kick a headache. Truly, the fried pickles were some of the best I've ever had! Partner ordered the duck ramen. It was very heavy on the cinnamon. I wouldn't have been able to eat it. But if cinnamon is your jam you might enjoy. I was asking questions before I committed to an order specifying a shellfish allergy& was repeatedly recommended dishes that had prawns. Way to take food allergies seriously, even if you have "GF" noted on menu items. So beware, diners. I settled on the chicken soup cuz I love Napa cabbage & never thought of it in soup. The chicken was severly dry & overcooked. The broth lacked flavor, my homemade broth is more flavorful than this restaurants. I asked for a refill to my Dr Pepper & was concerned when I heard a soda can crack opened. Sure enough, I was charged $4 PER soda, for a total of $8! Outrageous! When we got our bill the itemization wasn't available so I had the receipt emailed & that where charges were confirmed. Honestly had I known I was paying per can of soda I don't know if I would've left such a tip. Knowing you can get 3/12pk on sale for $10 and I paid $8 for 2 just sits wrong for me. At least specify on the menu or when someone orders another soda it's an additional charge. Too bad the pickles were good. Won't go back.
