The sweet and sour chicken was clearly from the prior day. We could not cut it with a knife. Hard and chewy. Crispy chicken the same. Egg foo yung was so greasy and the grease tasted old. Really heavy and bad. Curry chicken and oyster beef all were hard but less so than the others. Shrimp in the fried rice were so tiny. No veggies in the fried rice either. Beef egg rolls were okay but so large we split one. Vegetable lo mein was nothing to write home about. Just bland. No one ever bothered to ask us how the food was. We waited as we had a lot to say. Nope. Honestly, I could not be paid to eat here ever again. I'm really sad. I've been going here off and on for decades and never had a bad experience until today. Please do not spend your time coming for the buffet. Maybe other dishes freshly prepared would be okay. Just avoid the buffet. I would've paid 50% more for dishes that were a little more flavorful and fresh. If you can't cut the chicken with a knife, there's a problem.

This was honestly an insult to good Thai food…read more We ordered two dishes, and neither one of them tasted fresh. The Pad Thai was a disaster. It was completely devoid of the basics: No green onion/garlic chives, no chili, no bean sprouts, no lime, no cilantro on top. There was no identifiable shrimp, meat, or egg. What showed up was a grey, lifeless pile of mushy noodles with some tofu and ground peanuts. It had some sugar, maybe some tamarind, maybe some fish sauce. The texture, color, and flavor resembled paste. Seemed more like a mistake than a well-prepared dish. The Massaman curry was slightly less offensive. Nothing fresh here either. No onion, it was overloaded with what seemed like previously frozen tiny cubes of potatoes and thin, unappealing strips of meat of which my wife said "some pieces are gross." It lacked the rich, hearty depth you expect from a proper Massaman curry. Each bite was worse than the last. Never a good sign. And the rice! Don't even get me started. There is simply no excuse for getting it wrong. Yet somehow, they did. It was quiet inside and I liked the decor but the staff looked as unhappy as the food tasted. I don't know how this place stays in business. There was no care put into the food at all. I feel sorry for anyone who thinks this is good or representative Thai food. WTF! I am mad at myself for eating it.

Stopped by Serious Sanji since I was craving dumplings and they are right near my apartment!…read more It wasn't super busy and the staff were incredibly friendly. We ordered the shanghai soup dumplings and pan fried dumplings! Both were pretty good! The prices are definitely a lot cheaper than other dumpling places I've been. Definitely will be stopping by again to try their other dumplings! They also have other dishes such as noodles and chinese burritos. :-)

Take out dumplings at a reasonable price?! Sign me up! They have multiple types of dumplings to…read morechoose from and I honestly had a hard time deciding what to order. I went w the shanghai soup dumplings and wontons w chili oil in addition to some crab rangoons. Now I didn't have super high expectations for take-out soup dumplings, and they were pretty much exactly what I was expecting. They were good, flavor was fine, they seemed a little fatty, which I wasn't expecting. The dipping sauce was my favorite part. Now the wontons w chili oil on the other hand were an amazing take-out option that I will be getting again. Pork and shrimp w a spicy chili oil, flavor was great, texture was great. Will be getting again. The crab rangoons were also pretty good. Nice and crispy w a good amount of cream cheese filling. Overall, the food was good and there is a lot on the menu that I will be back to try. Probably wouldn't get the soup dumplings as a take out option again, but would consider getting them in-restaurant.

Went here for…read moredinner after receiving a recommendation from a friend, who cited that this was her lunch spot of choice! If I worked in the city I would totally be here all the time. We were one of two parties having dinner and everything we got was great and served quick and the server was kind! We got 6 veggie egg rolls, the specialty pho, and a tofu bahn mi. All of which we enjoyed. We will be back and my boyfriend mentioned he may recommend this spot as a lunch spot for him and his coworkers

Tried it for the first time with high hopes, but unfortunately it fell short of what I was…read moreexpecting due to positive reviews from friends. I got the grilled pork banh mi with a cup of broth (~1/2 quart, $5) with a Vietnamese iced coffee. Sandwich was good, but it wasn't very big for $10. The meat, which was good I was expecting to be pieces of grilled meat, was very sparse and very thin, like bulgogi. The broth was pretty sweet instead of savory and likely already pre-seasoned with hoisin. In terms of service, I had placed my order first. Sandwich with the coffee. My partner said he'll have the same thing. I confirmed to make sure that was also including the ice coffee, and the person that took our order said yes. We waited for a while for our order (highly recommend ordering online, we just saw different prices on their website vs online ordering service, so we thought we'd just wait to order in person), then she forgot our iced coffees. We waited some more. She only brought out one. She said oh sorry, I only rang you up for one. So we waited some more. At that point I thought she would just let us have the coffee on the house, but she did indeed ring us up. We were probably in and out with our to-go order in about 40 minutes. All in all, I'd go back for the iced coffees if I was in the area because they were good, but I wouldn't go out of my way to go back.

The ambiance is amazing and the service was fantastic!

All of it was delicious. I feel like the food is kind of Americanized compared to what I usually eat at family gatherings, but I overheard that they are transitioning from a their food truck menu to a more "restaurant menu" so I'm super excited to see what they have in store. I'd love to see them add a puto rice cake dessert and a calamansi drink to the menu!

We came here randomly after wanting to get some ice cream or gelato--finally stumbled upon this…read moreplace and decided to give it a shot. They have a bunch of gelato flavors, boba sundaes, Italian ice, and more! I decided to get a scoop of Superman gelato in a cup. If you were born in the 1900s, you might have had this flavor at a TCBY as a kid. Well, I had to go for it and it tasted JUST like I remembered! It's a couple different flavors in one scoop--blue vanilla, pink bubblegum, yellow lemon and green sherbet or something like it. Either way it was great and was only $6. My fiancée got one scoop of the mango gelato and it it was also very good and didn't have too much mango that it was overpowering. Hers was also $6, which isn't too bad for a scoop of gelato in this day and age. But they do have soft serve cones for $3.50ish if you want regular soft serve and don't want to spend as much money. The inside is cute and has neon signs of different things, it wasn't very busy when we were there. It is in the middle of a strip mall but don't let the outside fool you--the service was great and helpful. We weren't sure what was included in the boba or Italian ice and they were nice enough to tell us. I'd come back to try the Italian ice or to get the Superman scoop when I want some nostalgia.

They offer gelato, frozen yogurt with toppings, and a variety of other desserts. The staff was friendly, patient while we looked over the menu, and even let us sample the gelato.

Karma is one of my go to stops for a refreshing breakfast including some fresh fruits and protein!…read moreThis café smoothie bar is quaint (heads up they don't have a ton of seating inside) but such a cute spot to sit and enjoy your meal. I have been here a few times now and tried different bowls and smoothies- my top favorites include the protein bowl and the choco craze smoothie! I also love how you can customize and add in different ingredients, such as fruits, nut butters, or protein powder to make it your own. The food menu is fairly limited, but I will say that the avocado toast and bagel with cream cheese both hit the spot. They also serve coffee/tea drinks which I have yet to try, and have a variety of other items to look over in the shop. Every time I have stopped by the staff has been friendly and efficient in serving customers. Definitely recommend trying out Karma if you are in the Bayview area and are looking for some nutritious food/beverage options! (Yes this is coming from a Dietitian;) )

Karma Café is an amazing little spot in the Bay View neighborhood of Milwaukee…read more There are plenty of healthy options to choose from and the Karma Bowl was particularly delicious. The strawberries and granola on top were a nice touch, along with the drizzle of honey. I went with one other person and he had the PB Protein Smoothie which was fantastic as well! I wasn't sure how well pineapple would pair with peanut butter, but I was pleasantly surprised by it. Pineapple is such a nice addition to the traditional peanut butter and banana combo. My only gripe is the price point. $10 for a smoothie bowl and $8 for a smoothie seems a little steep. But then again, you're paying for healthy, yummy, high quality food. The gal who runs the shop is also so nice and efficient. I will definitely be returning to Karma Café!
