May 2025 The food…read morewas great, but service missed the mark. Despite a listed closing time of 10PM, we were hurried out by 9:30PM... Awkward, considering we were just wrapping up. Even at 8:45PM, the hostess already seemed irritated by our arrival. Either update the restaurant hours or work on patience. That said, the house special fried rice remains undefeated, so I'll let this slide... this time.

They have booth seating (even larger ones that for parties of 6) and some table/chair seats. Very nice decor. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted and seated immediately. Our server was terrific throughout our entire visit. He was very attentive and friendly. A very welcoming restaurant. Once seated you will be served some very tasty fried noodles and duck sauce. Just beware as you will clear the bowl quickly. We ordered the wonton soup (delicious), crab Rangoon (recommend), and the egg rolls (get these - so tasty). An order of General Tso chicken with white rice was the main meal and it was massive! It was also very tasty. There was hardly any wait time for your food. The portions are immense and the prices are beyond reasonable! This combination along with all of the food being absolutely fantastic is a win. You can tell that they have put great thought and intention into their craft. If you are local, don't sleep on this place. If you aren't local, worth the drive!

The noodles came with a little sauce on top and no toppings that I was used to. And the two duck bun was good but I wish I had more.

The wait was very long and the service was poor. The duck bun appetizer was over cooked and tough. But worst was that the Spicy Tuna roll tasted off. When I informed the waiter the owner came out and argued with me about what I tasted in my own mouth. I have been eating sushi for 30 plus years from dozens of restaurants and in Japan. This was only the second time in my life I have reflexively spit out a piece of sushi and it is really troubling to me that the owner wouldn't take my concern seriously.

I was super excited for this place at first. YUCK! This is some of the WORST pad thai I've ever…read morehad, I'd recommend going across the street and getting pad thai from noodles and company as theirs is much better! Chicken had a weird texture and didn't have much flavor. Noodles overcooked. Veggies were huge chunks. Sushi was a disappointment, the only good one was the peanut avocado. Their sweet potato roll has no sweet potato in it and is just tempura (aka just breading). Cali roll had way too much cucumber and very stiff crab stick. Placed an online order, said it would be ready by 2pm, (placed it at 1:38pm). Got there at 1:50pm, wasn't ready yet. My food wasn't ready until 2:12pm, this took up almost my entire lunch break. Very gross food honestly and i wish i could puke up what I did eat, as the calories were not worth it. Just not good quality food and not fresh tasting.

We're not too hungry but hungry enough for some app and a roll. We're decided on crab Rangoon, calamari, tuna tataki and titanic roll. Everything was great, we finished it all. Love the tuna, presented beautifully on a lettuce sprinkled with green onions and black sesame. The calamari, while it's not the breaded crispy, its crispy and stir fried with red green pepper and red onions. Loved this too. Crab Rangoon, it's good but not a fan of the dipping sauce that came with it. It's overly sweet and thick in the consistency... this one could definitely be improved. We ended up eating it with the sauce that came with the calamari. Now onto the titanic, nothing but good thing. Fresh and love give it has a black caviar on top. Last but not least, we had to finish with mango sticky rice. The rice came out so warm which was a very nice touch. Ate every bits of it. Service was great attentive and dining area is clean and pretty. There's a seating area on the side where you basically sit in the floor. Would love to come back and experience that another time.

There wasn't enough sauce, AND the sauce lacked flavor. That made the poki bowl lost its colors. Also, it wasn't a good portion for what we paid. It wasn't a full lunch... Lastly, the workers there were not really helpful. Usually I don't comment on things involving people unless it really makes a difference, but in this case it did. Being a first time customer here, while there were no other customers in the shop at the time, I felt rushed by the person helping me. And she wasn't very accommodating to making sure my bowl comes out perfect. Overall, it's meh.
