    Guess Dave got tired of wandering :) So he locked up the truck and opened a small eat-in or take out spot in the mall. We should rejoice as his food is now available year-round, and can be enjoyed sitting down, with excellent service to boot! This was a road trip stop for lunch, guided by the stellar reviews. We concur. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable - giving us some background on Dave, their plans for further expansion, while taking care of table service and doing the "little things" that distinguish superior restaurants from all the rest (like cleaning the menus). The tuna tacos (3 per order) were fresh and flavorful- served with Siracha Slaw and a soy vinegar sauce. Plenty of food for a full meal or a share. My wife's grilled chicken with brie and apple was served on a fresh baguette and was melt in your mouthwatering good. They offer Hal's sodas and Bluestone Lane iced coffees, including a 20 calorie, no sugar, oat milk version that tasted just like the 560 calorie Starbucks Frappuccino. A wonderful lunch at reasonable prices. Highly recommended.

    Mac and cheese, truffle fries, buttermilk chicken sandwich.

    Wow I had a fantastic dinner here the other day! We stopped by on our way to another event so we didn't want to have too many leftovers and decided to share some things. Well we over ordered, of course, but I'm not disappointed! The guy at the front was SO friendly. They have a very unique menu ranging from chicken sandwiches, to ramen, to pork chops. We decided to get the buttermilk chicken sandwich, the Mac n cheese, and the truffle fries. Everything was fantastic and I highly recommend it. I'm honestly just trying to figure out another excuse to get up to that area so we can eat there again!

    From top: Egg(s) Sausage & Cheese Sandwich, Truffle Fries, Buttermilk Chicken Sandwich. Not an optical illusion- the sandwiches are huge.

    The whole experience was magnificent. We went in around 10 am to a spotless little place. Dakota waited on us (counter service) and when he learned we'd never been there, reviewed the menu with us. A very helpful young person- I'd hire him in a minute! I had a Buttermilk Chicken Sandwich- foreground in photo. BF had a breakfast sandwich (sausage egg and cheese) and truffle fries. The chicken was piled so high on my sandwich that I had to eat it as two open faced halves. Fried perfectly and complemented by the arugula, pickles, sauce etc. BF's sandwich was also huge with eggs (2) and sausage crisped up. With "just the right amount of spice". Dave's mom's photos decorate the walls. Bucolic Duchess County landscapes. Nice touch! We can't wait to get back here to try something else. Winner, winner, chicken dinner. Er, breakfast. Thanks, Dave!

The development there has come a long way over the last few years, making it a great destination for a quick lunch or a sit-down dinner. Plus, having plenty of parking in a modern, well-maintained square is a massive win--no circling the block looking for a spot here. While the name promises "Bao," I haven't ventured into that side of the menu just yet. Why? Because the Ramen is too good to pass up. The Meat Soup (Ramen) is my go-to. The broth is rich, savory, and clearly made with care. It's the kind of "fantastic" comfort food you want on a chilly Connecticut day. The meat is tender and the portions are satisfying. If you're in the Oxford area and looking for authentic flavors in a clean, modern setting, this is the place. It's easy to get to, easy to park, and the soup never misses.

Fried chicken ramen. Broth not very hot. Underdeveloped broth flavor. Ramen was good consistency. Very light on the greens and other additions to the ramen. Fried chicken cutlets star of the show. Very light, hot and crispy. Pork ramen. Same as above. Pork was fair at best. Very fatty but tender. And what's with the corn in the ramen. That's for a cup of noodle. Which actually has a better taste profile than this ramen broth. Service was good. Waiter was very sweet and welcoming. Prices overboard for the quality they are serving. Will not return.

I was so happy to see Dimsum on the menu until I saw the prices! Way more expensive than what you get in the city! So I opted for the seafood ramen lunch special for $17 which came with a choice of 2 sides. Service was quick. The place was clean with a lot of tables. I read some of the reviews before coming here and they were right, the broth was not hot enough and was a little bland. So I was very disappointed. I decided to try their sesame balls despite the price - $8.49 for 2 pieces since I was already here hoping that would make it better. Unfortunately it also missed the mark. I saw other people order noodle dish and fried rice and left with clean plates - maybe those taste better. I really hoped this place would be good.

Off the beaten path, into the beautiful hills and woods, is this town of Heritage Village I'll have to further explore someday. For now, it's All You Can Eat for $32! Lucky me!! The service was out of control great, especially considering how busy the restaurant is. The whiteboard menu and marker checklist is so smart and fun a concept. It invites gluttony and that's refreshing in these pricey days of eating out. You also feel free to explore menu items you might not if Ala carte pricing. I was also astatic to see plentiful wasabi and ginger on my plate. I've usually experienced cutbacks on these items with AYCE or BOGO deals. The clincher in my love for this place was being asked if I wanted the menu again for more. Lucky me

For lunch, I tried the shoyu ramen with a soft boiled egg and side of spicy oil. The broth was light and flavorful. The chashu was very tender and seared nicely. The shoyu came with straight noodles instead of wavy, but it was still good. The bowl had menma, as well as red and green onions. I enjoyed the bowl so much, we went back for dinner the same day. For dinner, I tried the shio ramen, which was basically the same thing, but with a sea salt tare instead of soy sauce. I also got wavy noodles this time and I definitely prefer the wavy noodles. Once again, it came with red and green onion, which i think is a bit overpowering. I would get just green onion next time. The family/couple sets seem to be a great deal. I would definitely return.

We had the Churrasco platter and the another platter that had steak, shrimp and chicken with rice (not instant), beans, fresh macaroni salad (fantastic) hot pepper and scallion and it was all exceptional. The owner's are also very friendly and down to earth. This is a place that has mini golf in the back which is great if you are looking for something additional to do, however the food is definitely the main reason to come here.
