The chicken was fresh, juicy, and packed with flavor, and the service was amazing, the owner took the time to take care of us from start to finish. Everything came out hot, crispy, and cooked just right. The kimchee Jjigae, tteokbokki and Japchae were amazing as well. So full of flavor and definitely. You can tell they take pride in their food and really care about their customers. It was so good that we had to go back again before we left.

The Bibimbap was also excellent, loaded with fresh veggies, beef, egg, and sauce. The only minor downside was the egg being slightly undercooked, but the crispy rice at the bottom more than made up for it and added great texture. The Kimchi soup was hands down the best I've had! Perfectly balanced, not overly strong or spicy, and packed with flavor. The addition of pork belly was a huge plus and made it even more satisfying. Service was fast and friendly, and our server was incredibly sweet and attentive. The ambiance was nice and clean, family-owned, not too busy, and very welcoming. Overall, a fantastic experience and definitely a spot I'd come back to!

Menu it appears they're willing to change by trend. We all had burgers, but we double burgers or split burgers. Soda is refilled, except handcrafted sodas. In the future; might want to research seasonal coleslaw or broccoli-slaw for change up of side menu salads. Other: fried or steamed vegs as possible finger food. Portion side, it was expected. Shio liked the bacon melt leftover. I found out what was missing alfalfa sprouts made taste elevated. Not sure if they would add pan fry egg as optional item. Server was good, he explained things better, and ambiance wasn't too noisy to hear him. Server did say you can seating arrangement is up to customers. Noon time on Saturday seems like less busy, my brother was telling us, hard to get in, reserve spot, and appears like that way only if there was a live game it said so in commercials. Packed to where ppl were waiting in line get in. They do work hard making place clean. Thank you for the good food it was yummy. Edited at desktop, mobile doesn't allow much for spellcheck. Note: 1-star rating ppl might have gone when it was live game. Suggestion go when it's lunch or game days are re-played. Patience is a virtue, try to eat more when you go out. There is ton of food on menu besides the wings.

The Pho had nice clean broth which was very tasty and the noodles was very fresh. Definitely a good Vietnamese restaurant for Salinas.

I ended up ordering online since it was convenient and the deals were calling my name! Let me tell you this meal goes down in the history of histories. It was fresh! It was AMAZINGGGG! It was so good I had to call them and tell them know how delicious it was! I had ordered the tender+nugget family meal with mac and cheese, mash and gravy, lastly biscuits!! They were out of the oven hot! On top of that the 2 for $7 mikes hot honey sandwich, which you can redeem through the app. Well at least I was able to! Not only did I have to drive 45 minutes home, but it was still nice and hot! I've worked at a kfc back in 2016 this brings me back and definitely will continue to go back to this location. Unfortunately don't have pictures to show the spread, but it ended up happily in my belly. It was finger licking good.

I will never go anywhere else for Thai in this area , not willingly anyways. Be careful of spice level. The chef here truly hits the Thai level spices. I ask for medium but am always dying half way in. If you can't handle the heat, ask for zero. Don't mess around. We have yet to try the whole menu but it's hard to stray from our favorites: - green curry - panang curry - pad thai - pad kee mao (drunken noodles) - beef salad (loooooove this with some extra rice on the side - super saucy and can get really spicy. Highly rec if you like that funk from the fish sauce) The ambiance is definitely take out vibes. Lighting is very bright and fluorescent but clean. I can't praise this place enough!!!

The gentleman told me he had a full menu for me to review, and I was able to look through it. The entire restaurant was very clean, and well maintained with beautiful decorative art, and clean floors, windows, and doors. The gentleman working the front gave me so many options to choose from, explained the entirety of the menu, and even gave advice on which dishes to choose from based on my flavor pallet. He was very informative, patient, and so helpful in choosing my first tai experience. The fried appetizers, wonton and dumplings were so crispy and fresh. The filling inside both was fair, and the sauces given had a wonderful flavor. The pad Thai was perfectly spiced and very filling. I do wish the pork itself was seasoned prior to the sauce, and maybe it is, but it seemed a tad bland with the sauce on top! Great prices and great portions. I do highly recommend you come try this place! They had so many great options including drinks!
