We got food to eat in, but everything was served in to-go containers. I really do not like that. I ordered my 83 year old Mother This rice dish. It had thinly sliced beef. The beef was not edible. It was so hard it resembled beef jerky. The waiter is a sweet young guy. I told him to taste the beef and he did. He agreed it was hard. He offered to give me something else, but i was not interested. The Shoyu ramen was good, but the monster ramen tasted weird. It almost tasted like paprika. Not at all what we remembered from when we were here a while ago. The appetizers (pork dumplings and lollipop shrimp) were good. I'm pretty sure I will not be coming back here.

This is a great place for a meal before or after going to the beach! Came here for lunch before…read moreheading to Rockaway beach and got fish tacos, black bean cheese and plantain tacos, and chips and guac. The chips and guac are great. The chips weren't stale at all and the guac is really fresh and nice portion size. I love plantains so I was excited for the black bean, cheese and plantain tacos but was soo disappointed. I was excited to see a nice portion of plantains on the taco but when I bit into it, it had a slightly chalky texture , a bit too firm, and not sweet enough but rather a little bitter. This made me think maybe the plantain wasn't ripe enough so this affected the overall execution. I've had fried plantains lots of times at other places and they're always crispy, soft and sweet so this was a huge letdown. I didn't end up finishing the taco or plantains. To end on a much better note, the fish tacos were REALLY good. The fish is big, fried perfectly without feeling super oily. The slaw adds a nice refreshing crunch and I love the sauces and guac added. It's a great mixture of flavors and probably the best fish tacos I've ever had. I will definitely be getting these and the chips and guac next time I'm going to the beach!

Little did I know I'd have the BEST fish taco I've ever had in my life. The perfectly fried fish was so flakey and the batter was nice a crispy without feeling oily.

The vibes were very laid back surfer. They had self serve water and sauce. I loved everything about this place and will def trek back for these tacos.

I generally get the chicken teriyaki dinner and salad. Delicious and satisfying when I'm not up for Italian. I try to order a glass of Cabernet, but they tell me they don't sell red wine anymore! No one buys it only white! Ok so plan B, I ask to go across the street to the liquor store where I pick up a bottle of Sicilian organic red wine, with no sugar! I bring it back and they give me a wine glass and I pour! It's certainly good for $16. It's certified vegan made with organic grapes. Now how can you go wrong?? I offer some to my Asian waitress, but she doesn't drink alcohol only soda! Not a particularly healthy choice! Tonight I stay with the program and order the chicken teriyaki dinner. It's great Chicken is tender and the teriyaki sauce is relatively mild. Just right. It comes with the traditional white rice. Broccoli and carrots. The rain has finally stopped.

I asked to sub rice for noodles because one of my kids is a rice pot (can't go without rice) and requested extra sauce, which they kindly provided. The set meals are a fantastic deal; a full size entree, an appetizer and a drink for $19-20. An extra order of noodles is $2.50 and it's really double the amount of noodles that comes in your entree. I also ordered their new dish with has abalone and sea cucumber; this is not part of a set meal. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It has that umami sweetness that comes from a great soup base and the noodles are delicious as usual. The abalone was tender, the sea cucumber had a bite to it. There was fish maw and wood ear in there as well.

I've tried the fish maw soup rice noodles, and the tom yum soup noodles - both have good broth, but the tom yum was spicy and hot in temperature, so it was hard to eat it quickly. My mom tried the Chicken Fish Maw soup noodles and thought the chicken was not of the best quality, so I'd avoid that in the future. They have set meals that come with a side and drink, but those limit you to three options. I got sold on buying the gift cards to maximize spend, so I have a few more visits. I'm looking forward to trying the dry noodles because summer is just around the corner!

We then got the Pelmeni which are handmade Russian raviolis.. so juicy and delish. As the main, we got the Plov, which is a traditional beef dish. I would eat this over and over!

We weren't very hungry as we had been on the beach eating a bunch of snacks about an hour before. It had started raining and we left the beach but weren't ready to head home. Found a park right in front of the restaurant and decided to go in. Aside from a few people at the bar the restaurant was empty. It was Tuesday early evening so not surprising. We decided to share a couple items. There's lots of seating and the restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. Our server waa sweet and suggested the Plov . We also got the scallion pancakes and chicken kebab. The food is made to order but still came out in a reasonable amount time. Very fresh and good quality ingredients. We left feeling satisfied but thankfully not over stuffed. Will return to try the menu.

The place clean and cute and of course, packed and full of life. The staff upbeat and friendly which is what we love! Unfortunately I had to give them one less star for this rating (compared to my previous 5 star) because their bubble tea changed, not only their packaging but their quality. The cup felt flimsy, like if you squeeze too hard might pop the cover off, no big deal if the actual drink is great, then you bypass this BUT unfortunately this has to be one of the saddest bubble tea drinks I've had in a while. The drink was warm!!! Ugh, the ice was added last so therefore it melted immediately and so by the time it got to me, warm... I'm like ok I can add ice at home lol .. I had the mango and my boyfriend the peach. Both flavors were good, but both warm with ice is just not the same. We had it with tapioca bubbles and mango/peach popping boba. The popping boba was good but the tapioca pearls were SOOO HARD and a weird orange see through color so either they weren't ready or they were old! They were so hard they kept clogging our straw and couldn't sip our drink... everything about it was just a disappointment, I was so sad because I've been going there for years and I've loved their bubble tea and never had that problem! Anyway, go for food, skip their bubble tea.

The thin-crust pizza had a lovely sweet tomato sauce and high-quality mozzarella. The meatballs were tender and flavorful -- the meat tasted like prime beef. For our mains, both the chicken parmesan and chicken francese were outstanding, and the side of penne alla vodka was rich and excellent. We tried nearly every dessert on the menu and they were all delicious. The wine list is reasonably priced, and we enjoyed a lovely bottle with dinner. Best of all, the service was spectacular. We came with a group of 12, and with only one waitress(some addditional staff as well), she handled our entire table like a pro -- fast, efficient, and incredibly attentive the whole night.
