We stopped in here for lunch (2 adults 2 kids) on a Friday a little after 1pm and it was busy! It…read moregot busier after we waited about 5 mins for a table. Plenty of street parking available and the storefront had lovely plants at the entrance. Walking in felt a little crowded and awkward because of the small entryway. But it did look like they have a few booths, tables, window seating, and even a bigger private room in the back. The lunch specials were $9.99 which was an amazing value for sure! I got the Happy Bimbim Bap with chicken and my hubby got the Spicy Pork Bento Box (the bigger one for $15) The friendly staff set up our table and gave us all hot and freshly made green onion pancakes which was a nice touch! (Although it was a little too oily) Our food came out super fast - within 10 minutes of ordering?! The kids and I enjoyed all the veggies and egg for my bimbim bap but the chicken were cut until small pieces were just ok. My husband did enjoy his Spicy Pork with a good amount of spice (they asked him if he wanted spicy) and came with potstickers, California rolls, rice, and a side salad. My daughter actually really loved the green bean banchan and the daikon and kimchi were super delicious too! The owner came to our table to say hi to the kids and each table got watermelon as dessert (the Asian way!) She was so nice and offered extra watermelon for the kids if they wanted it. It also looked like they do a lot of local community work with the homeless and were super involved in providing food to those that need it. Such a lovely local restaurant. If you're in the area definitely come give it a try!

Went here recently with our daughter and we each got a different bento box. I honestly can't…read moreremember which three we ordered, but mine was SO good! The meat was incredibly flavorful, and everything else in the box was delicious too. I've always loved bento boxes because they feel like the perfect portions of a little bit of everything. They also bring out several complimentary little side dishes at the beginning, which is such a nice touch. I added pictures because, of course, I can't remember exactly what everything was called! And I have to mention the people who work here, they are SO nice. Like genuinely, incredibly friendly and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. I think this was only my second time here since moving to Salem three years ago, and I'm not sure why we don't come more often. Definitely going back!

On such afternoons, I often find myself wandering--letting instinct guide me rather than intention. It was during one of these aimless drives that a simple word, "Gelato," caught my attention. Curious, I stepped inside. The experience unfolded with quiet efficiency. After noting our names on a modest waiting list, we were seated within minutes. Seeking guidance, I asked about the house favorites--always a telling measure of a kitchen's confidence. Soon after, a freshly prepared, steaming dish arrived at our table. It was immediate, honest, and deeply satisfying--proof that even unplanned moments can yield unexpectedly refined pleasures.

We started with a nonalcoholic mojito, and it was SO refreshing! We also ordered a few different sushi rolls with miso soup. I can't remember the exact rolls we ordered, but they were both incredibly fresh and delicious. The sushi was some of the freshest I've had around town, and the portions were generous too! The sushi bites were BIG -- so big that I almost felt like I needed to cut each one in half. Definitely not a complaint, though! I'd much rather have a generous bite of fresh, delicious sushi. We'll definitely be back. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was cozy, and the owners made us feel right at home.

Very small. The Tso sauce tasted more like a sweet and sour teriyaki. This is the first Chinese food I have bought that hasn't provided several meals.

I will not order from here, again, and wish I never had in the first place. Sad.

Just sushi and ramen. She said why but her accent was a little heavy and I didn't really understand. So I ended up just getting sushi. Good seasoning on the rice. It was a little light but better that than the other way. Good ratio of rice to fillings as well. Volcano roll was spicy good as we like to say at home. Also got the rainbow, California and unagi roll. All very delicious. They had a deal with a free California roll if you order $50. Overall makes this a very good deal. They definitely struggle with efficiency and im not sure if im a fan of the half open kitchen with the air fryer and microwave on the open side. I would return for sure. Hope for more items.

Flavorful and delicious, Fire Foods delivers the best in Asian food here in Molalla. I haven't had their burgers yet but after reading the reviews here, I'm thinking I need to try one! In any event, with the cold grey day we are having today, a bowl of hot ramen soup was the perfect thing to send the overcast blues flying out the window. Today, I had the Veggie Ramen Soup with shrimp & egg along with a cup of jasmine flower tea. The bowl of soup was so big I had to ask for a container to take home what I couldn't eat at lunch. With big huge shrimps and a perfectly poached egg, the noodles and veggies (broccoli, cabbage, bean sprouts, carrots, onions, bok choy) hit the spot. The broth was delicious with the perfect amount of spiciness - my lips were tingling with the heat! (Tip: I asked for a "1" on the spiciness chart and it was spicy. I think it might have actually been a "2" because it was spicy! I like my food spicy but if you don't, maybe ask for a "0".) Ordering is accomplished at the counter, which is on the left when you enter the front door. When I said I needed some soup for a chilly day, the man who took my order suggested the Veggie Ramen. He then asked if I wanted to add anything to it and I requested chicken, although I got those huge beautiful shrimp. (I'll be asking for those shrimp from now on!) Prices are comparable to or less than any other place these days - veggie ramen soup was $12 and the pot of tea that I got at least 3 mugfuls out of was $2.50. Add-ons to the soup like chicken, beef or shrimp are an additional couple of bucks. All decked out for the holidays, my favorite decoration was the Grinch Christmas Tree! Fun and festive! I'll be going back soon - maybe to try a burger but I love their Asian food so it might be hard to choose.

Nothing crazy ordered, but if it takes that long, we should get an explanation or something. We had 5 people so maybe that's it? But when you see someone who sat down 15 mins after us get their food first, it's a bit frustrating. Sad because I really liked this place. Sadly, my pad thai was just ok, it had lots of scrambled egg but not a lot of chicken and missing that crunch from bean sprouts. My kids said their food was just so-so too. I get it's a beach town but felt a bit letdown.
