Very friendly. - Seaweed salad was pretty good too. The not great: - Outside of the seaweed salad, the food was not great. - The edamame was overcooked and shriveled up. - The rainbow roll came without shrimp or salmon (kind of a bummer since i was sharing with my daughter and those are the two types of fish I know she eats). - California roll was on par with what I would expect to buy at the grocery store. Overall a "meh" experience, not one I'll be repeating anytime soon.

Stopped in on Saturday for lunch after shopping at the mall. Was a little difficult to find,…read morebecause the location on yelp is a little off. Was promptly seated and didn't have to wait long to get my order in or receive my food. Now I was in early so I could see how it could get busy as service picks up because seating can be a little limited. The restaurant was clean and decorated well enough. The location doesn't do it many favors but the food is good so I'll likely come back. I requested the New Delhi-Style Noodles because I enjoy yellow curry dishes and was needless to say I was impressed. The vermicelli noodles were great dipped into the accompanying fish sauce with curried chicken bites in between. The portion was solid for lunch and I didn't feel like I needed more to get me through until dinner. Only gripe is maybe the price is a little high for anything other than chicken but that's life right now. I'll likely stop back in to try a few more dishes when I'm back in the area.

Everything was super fresh and cooked 100% to order. Not a complaint. The waitress was awesome as well. Super friendly and attentive. Great conversationalist and upsold a few things ;) I also had no complaints about my options either as I really wanted a few varieties of tuna and I was very happy with what I chose and received.

The chicken was super tender and juicy with just the right amount of teriyaki sauce, in my opinion. Each sushi roll was put together very well with equal proportions. Not too much of one ingredient to overpower the rest. The dumplings were delicious and perfectly crispy on the outside. Not to mention the sauce that came with them was to die for! The service was great! Our waitress was very patient and helped us figure out what appetizers to get, since it was our first time in. She explained everything in detail and her recommendations were perfect! She even made our drinks (I forgot to get a picture of the strawberry lemonade) and they were awesome! Inside wasn't too loud or crowded and it's laid out quite nicely. There's even outdoor seating, which isn't neglected by the wait staff. Some places tend to "forget" about the customers outside but they didn't do that here. All of the staff were attentive and polite. Even with the bar being next to the table we were sitting at, it didn't feel crowded inside and the tvs weren't too loud.

The ramen pork is not the normal thin sliced pork that I and used to getting. Instead it is a thicker grilled piece which also tastes very good. Just different texture and taste.

We try one new restaurant each month just to keep things fresh, so this time I suggested Fawn's. I'm really glad we did. I had heard so many great things about the food so I was excited to try it. When I saw the menu, though, I was a little nervous because they serve Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai and Laotian food. In my experience, restaurants that try to serve all kinds of Asian food rarely do one or all of them well. I ordered Pad Thai and my husband got Evil Jungle Prince. I was very pleased. It was the best Pad Thai I've ever eaten. It was SO good! My husband loved his dish, too. It had chicken and vegetables with a spicy sauce made with red curry and coconut milk. The prices were very reasonable and the portions were huge. We each got two meals out of our dinners. I love it when that happens. The place isn't fancy. It's in a small strip mall and doesn't look like much from the outside. Inside it's very clean and well-kept. There's not much for ambience besides two flat screen TVs. It doesn't matter because it's the food that really stands out. The service was excellent, too. My husband had his iced tea refilled twice without even asking. Great affordable food and good service. What more can you ask for? If you love Asian food, give them a try. I can't wait to go back and try more of their dishes.

Well, yes, I did overhear that I was sitting very clause to the bar. It was very rude of him, and I had been very kind and requested that the music be turned down some. The food was pretty good, I had the fig and creamy goat cheese flatbread. Overall, it might be a very good place for other people, rudeness is not acceptable.

We (myself and my two teenagers) stopped in for lunch on Sunday and started our meal with a couple sodas, a lemonade, and chicken lettuce wraps. Followed by entrees of orange chicken (x2) and the Mongolian beef (upcharge for lo mein noodles. We were greeted and seated immediately on walking in and we never hit the bottom of our glasses before being offered refills. I'm not a big fan of the orange chicken, but my kids love it. The beef in the Mongolian beef is thick and well seasoned. Probably one of my favorite iterations of this dish in the metro...though I would encourage you to check out Asian Cuisine in Grimes it this is your go to. Our total was $105 after tip. A little pricey for lunch, but it was an enjoyable meal and still probably cheaper that going to the Iowa State Fair. So not to scare you off most of the entrees run $15-$22 and would easily serve two. Fountain drinks are $3.50ish. The upcharge for the lo mein from rice was $2. We could have easily have trimmed almost $30 off of this just by skipping the lettuce wraps ($13) and ordering water, etc... Spending a little extra was on me for wanting to enjoy a good meal with my kids and all of us walking away happy with no regrets (as far as the meal itself anyway). I highly recommend the lettuce wraps, the dynamite shrimp, the Mongolian beef, and the Chang's spicy chicken.
