    Beef yakisoba and BBQ pork bun
    Ted L.

    So for reference I have personally worked at Japanese and Vietnamese / Chinese restraunts. Also we had ordered the BBQ pork buns Vietnamese sandwich beef , beef yakisoba and a crunchy tempura roll. ( I am Vietnamese/ Chinese myself so I'm taking this personally.) The service was about what one would expect from a normal Asian restraunt a little ignored but with lots of smiles. My server Eric no complaints about the guy. Ambiance I mean what more can one ask for it's a quaint location with very limited seating but it's okay. Small group of friends or a very personal date night is probably best for this place . The pork buns , not terrible if you've never had them before which a tad on the chewier side but chef Mike is a really fast guy, part of me wishes they would have at least steamed them a bit to keep the fluffiness. The sushi wasn't bad the spicy tuna they use has a decent kick to it and the eel sauce they used on top helps cut it a bit. The ( it personally pains me to even call it this, but this is what they called it ) "Vietnamese sandwich " which I got beef and the beef wasn't horrible good flavor , could have tenderized it more but I might be getting overly critical. But I'm sorry when has a "Vietnamese sandwich " ever come on sandwich bread , it tasted okay, but still honestly wondering why it's called a Vietnamese sandwich. A Vietnamese sandwich is made with French bread (toasted) with picked daikon and carrots , vietnamese mayo a touch of soysauce and cilantro sometimes If you are feeling festive get it with a jalapeno and a fried egg and you would have absolute bliss. What I received was nowhere in the neighborhood of Vietnamese slightly bordering on concept art and cultural appropriating with nothing inspired from vietnam , I received a honestly really confusing sandwich lettuce tomato cucumber duck sauce and mayo ... On toast ... Honestly really confused about the usage of duck sauce on the sandwich, it didn't taste bad but it's not what should be called a Vietnamese sandwich. And beef yakisoba... Indo mie brand or maybe mi go rang brand instant noodles... And it's supposed to be stir fried together not layered on top. Again beef wasn't bad honestly one of the best parts in my opinion.

    Supposed to be 2 orders of pho ramen and 3 shrimp tempura rolls... $90...

    If you order delivery, they give you a quarter of what you would get when dining in. We paid $90 for this absolute abomination of a meal. Enough for 1 person at best. Don't bother. You would be better off eating gas station sushi.

    Amazing food I come every chance when downtown, the food is nice! The service is great and they will help with what you need and the bubble tea is good! I recommend the honeydew boba and matcha!

    Service is amazing. Nothing but smiles as we walked in. Constant checking in but very politely. We ordered two Spicy Beef Yakisoba, an order of Chicken Fried Dumplings, and a Thai Iced Tea. Everything was so flavorful and filling. The place is a bit small but has a lot of character. The wait was definitely worth it, but if you can't eat in order to go. Best Asian food in Rifle, would definitely recommend this to anyone.

    Chicken fried dumplings were excellent!

    We visited last night for early dinner. The service was quick and the waiter was very nice. Food was excellent. I ordered the chicken fried dumpling, the Rifle roll and a bowl of Pho. Everything came out quick and we had a great dinner. Thanks!

    Finally they'r open , the food is amazing ....

It looks creative in a way that they combine two different cuisines and cultures (Vietnamese and Japanese to say it exact) and yet what they came up with is nothing but a tourist trap place that lacks authenticity. It's on the second floor of a building. The restaurant is clean and spacious with ample tables and chairs. Since we were there well outside of the busy lunch hour, we got the employees' undue attention. And they were quite welcoming and friendly. The food? Meh. Everything we got lacked the true authenticity. -Lunch Nigiri: The four nigiris simply didn't look fresh. Fortunately however, they didn't taste bad. And yet the overall quality was mediocre at best. This combo plate came with a salad and a soup (called Japanese soup). The salad was the worst out of all where it looked and tasted old and stale. And the soup? It wasn't a miso soup. It's a clear broth soup. But my question was, "What's Japanese about it anyway?" -Agedashi tofu: They really need to work on the "presentation" more. This skimpy looking dish simply didn't look good. It surprisingly didn't taste bad but it failed to impress us. Another mediocre dish. -Thai tea with boba: My daughter didn't care for it at all. I took a sip of it. It tasted a bit too bitter where the tea appeared to have been over-brewed. Yikes! The three stars might be a bit too much of an inflated assessment. And yet I appreciated the friendliness of the employees so 1 additional star is the manifestation of my sincere gratitude to them.

I am normally a red sauce eater but the green (probably the weak Sendy) was really good. Not spicy but full of flavor. Service was excellent again. 1st visit: I've been in Colorado for nearly two weeks and this has probably been the best meal I've had so far, even after dining in Aspen (Clark's, Aspen Public House) and Boulder (Flagstaff, the Kitchen American Bistro). I love chorizo tacos and the ones here served with potatoes and fried egg with a side of chips and salsa was one of the best I've ever had and I think that's says a lot after living a lifetime in Texas. The hot dog was flavorful and probably a foot long. It was served with lightly salted french fries that reminded me if the ones my mom used to make me. The Bloody Mary was also very good and slightly spicy although it was only garnished with a lime and no olives. The place is very small, seats maybe a couple of dozen indoors but there is also outdoor seating. Service was very friendly.

First off, the most notable thing about this experience was the genuinely most amazing waitress I think I have ever encountered, Grace. Grace was the kindest soul, she took such amazing care of us and went ABOVE AND BEYOND. Me and my family will go out to eat now and say "she was good but not as good as Grace". Second off, The food was AMAZING per usual. I had the Wagyu steak and it was cooked perfectly, I usually hate going out for steak because I find it to never be seasoned as much as I'd like but this took the cake. The blue cheese dip with chips was so delicious, like possibly one of the best things we have ever tasted. We also tried to carrot cake sorbet which I know sounds odd but it was so delicious, you can tell the kitchen staff puts their heart and soul into this food. My husband got the special, which was like a Turkish ricotta stuffed pasta and it was AMAZING. Even my sister who got the wagyu burger, AMAZING. My only critique was the hostess was very rude to my family for no reason when we walked in which almost turned my parents off from trying to the most amazing restaurant. Luckily, the service got amazing after that. Everyone was so kind and helping everyone, just a great atmosphere. They also had the Knicks game playing which was great haha. I can't wait to come back next summer for my favorite meal despite living states away we will always make it back to The Pullman.

I started with the pickled deviled eggs - little vinegar taste with a slightly sweet filling is a perfect combination. 10/10 The Steak Tartare is unlike any tartare I've ever had before. It comes on this homemade tater-tot that's shaped kind of like a piece of bread or a cracker. I wasn't expecting it, but it made the dish. There is some sort of sauce drizzled, which tastes like an egg yolk base. I scraped it with my fork so I could eat all of it! So delicious! Finished with the Pierogies. Handmade, thin wrappers with perfect, delicious filling. It comes in a bowl with an amazing sauce I couldn't get enough of. I literally used a spoon to drink it! If you're in town, get a reservation - they are very busy!!! It's worth it!

Unfortunately, for us, the restaurant was fully booked until 830 or 9pm. The hostess found a way to squeeze 3 of us in a table for 2 and we couldn't have been happier. Our server was prompt and friendly. She helped us narrow down some dinner choices. Two of us ordered the Thai fried chicken, after recommendation, and the third ordered a soup with shrimp. We split a cashew brownie with banana ice cream at the end. From start to finish, the meal was amazing. Every single piece was packed with flavor. The chicken was crispy, the sauce was spicy but not too spicy. The rice on the side was coconuty, creamy, and dreamy. The document slaw had a nice vinegar-y bite to complement the rest of the plate. My friend said the laksa with shrimp was the best she's ever had. The brownie was warm and crisp on the outside, but gooey in the middle. Despite the restaurant being on the smaller side and heavily crowded, we were able to speak to each other at normal volume. Stop in (repeatedly) if you haven't already!
