    Spicy Ginger and Garlic Pork
    Jason C.

    Tiny hole in the wall joint that you'll miss if you drive by too fast. Has seating for about 10 people and sign that says $3.99 lunch specials. Parking in front of the store can get messy when busy, but plenty of parking around the corner of the building. I ordered Spicy Ginger and Garlic Chicken over the phone and they asked me how long before I stop by, I said 10 minutes. I got there 15 minutes after I placed the order and the food wasn't ready, they just started making the food. After waiting another 10 minutes, got my food, paid and came home. On their menu, there is a red * next to the dish indicating it's a hot & spicy dish, however the dish has no spice at all... if it was supposed to be spicy, then they forgot to add the spice level when they made my dish. As for the dish itself, it had bit of sour taste to it. I expected the liquid to be thicker, but it was thin... I guess I expected the dish to be more like the dishes offered from King Shing or Panda House. Also, the chicken breast meat used here was bit tougher than those from King Shing or Panda house, it had to be the method they used to cook the chicken before making the dish. On a next visit, I'll have to try their $3.99 lunch special and see how it is... as for now, not bad, different then what I expected but it was nice to try new place. If you like spicy food, ask for hot chili oil - at least here, they did not charge you for it

    These are some amazing lunch specials

    Love this place - affectionately a "hole in the wall" - Amazing prices - ($3.99 lunch specials) - great general tso's - good selection. Very fast and friendly service - a family run operation. For best value and service, visit in person.

    Dumpling! All dough and under cooked as this was to be fried!

    This was the worst I've ever had! Dumplings were huge under cooked dough balls- chicken was slimy and undercooked- meal come in a container which if I didn't know better I'd believe it was a frozen meal 1/2 watered down. Egg rolls were undercooked and had a layer or two of uncooked egg roll wrap. Worst experiences ever- I called she said sorry we are super busy but we can refund you $5- I couldn't even I hung up- $70 in the trash and now to figure out plan b!

    sweet and sour chicken was like trying to eat a leather belt, chicken and pea pods with fatty chicken and mush pods. I would not recommend this place. A plus, they deliver fast :/

Even the crab rangoon and kickboxing chicken tailored for American palate are carefully prepared with their own style and addictive. I've come here many times with friends and colleagues with different levels of adventurousness and spice tolerances and they've all raved about this place (if you like spicy, this is paradise for you, otherwise get the mild with some extra heat on the side).

When I've ordered online, they always pay close attention to the extra instructions I add about adding cucumber and spice so you don't have to worry about that being overlooked. The ambiance of the restaurant is honestly top tier with the real flowers and candles on each table, aesthetic consistency, along with their round turning table perfect for large parties. These are the things I've tried from there: Orange chicken: 7/10 (and only because it's not my favorite dish anywhere, I just tried a bite of someone else's but it's good and has fresh mandarin in it; it quickly became my dad's favorite dish there) Pork Larb: again and again 10/10 I could eat this everyday Sesame chicken: 8/10 (not the best of the best I've tried but still very good) Kick boxing chicken: 10/10 Sticky rice: 10/10 perfect with my Larb Thai tea: 10/10. the best Thai tea I've had in Michigan. Very creamy and great flavor I've had a lot of Asian food in my day but this place is definitely one of the best in what they have.

The sweet chili sauce is perfect. Thai Peanut Noodles (4/5): The noodles had great texture and the Thai peanut sauce was delicious. The tofu wasn't really crispy and I personally would've loved the option to add some meat. Lamb Dumpling (4/5): Lots of meat in the filling and didn't taste gamy at all. Limited time special. Shrimp Shumai (4/5): Really enjoyed the wonton wrapper. Shrimp flavor came through nicely. Limited time special. House Salad (4/5): Light and fresh. The soy based dressing was sweet, slightly acidic, and not at all overpowering. Warm Chocolate Cake (4/5): Delicious cake with a warm, gooey inside. I personally don't like coconut or chocolate and fruit desserts, but I still enjoyed this a lot. Creme Brulee Tasting (4/5) : Green tea, pumpkin spice, and ginger creme brulees.

This place is aligned fairly well though with food in Korea though ie not highly westernized. This place is in the center of the college area on Liberty and State street. The selection is not extensive but the basics are here including BBQ. Side dishes are decent, Kimchi, which is fundamental to any Korean meal and varies by region, is always included and people have strong opinions about. Theirs is OK but not top notch. Other side dishes are decent. Whatever we ordered, BBQ, Yuk Gae Jang, Dol Sot Bi Bim Bap (Rice. Vegetables and beef inn stone pot), other was pretty good.....just like Seoul Garden used to be before ownership change. We used to go almost exclusively to Seoul Garden near the mall off Boardwalk but after ownership change stopped as the taste changed significantly and not for the better. Its nice to have The Seoul is an option. They have beer and soju (Ubiquitous Korean liquor in Korea that along with Kimchi is many Koreans blood) Environment of the restaurant is modern but still a bit cozy. Overall, definitely worth a try. While we are at it, I have spent allot of time in Japan on business (some vacationing too) and I know it's trendy to go there now especially with the exchange rate, and by all means go, allot to see and experience (and eat!) there. But don't overlook Korea. The two countries have a torrid history and don't want to admit they are similar in many ways....but they are and Korea is loaded with great places to go and food to eat. Traveling can be done on any budget, feel free to reach out if you want to learn more. Also love to hear from experienced travelers, love to learn of new places and things to do.

Then I ordered the Short Rib Bao Buns and Teriyaki Bourbon Chicken (got to keep the bourbon flowing). Now before I mention the food I have to say first that it isn't too often, maybe literally once every couple years that food shocks me because I have eaten every food type you can think of so there isn't too much that can intrigue me to want to try it, ok so now let's carry on with the review. So the Short Rib Bao Buns were nothing short of perfection. The pineapples gave it a phenomenal tropical taste and the bun itself was soft, chewy and buttery, the rib meat was tender, flavorful and easy to chew. I can't describe the taste you just have to try it yourself. Now let's get to this Teriyaki Bourbon Chicken. Mannnnnn, let me tell ya, there isn't foods that give me goosebumps much but this did it. It came with Collard Greens, the chicken and Mashed Potatoes and then had a an extra dribble of teriyaki sauce to mix with it. The Chicken & the Collard Greens went well together, the mashed potatoes & the Chicken went well together, the mashed potatoes & the collard greens went well together, I mean everything was top tier as you could want it. Now they do have gratuity already added but it is definitely worth the meal. This is a place you have to come and try and then wonder what you're gonna have next time when you come because it is THAT good. If I could give this 7 stars I would.

The ambiance is kind of a sterile, trendy vibe, but not in a good way? They have the Love Island neon signs in the bathroom (and the awful Dyson air blade hand dryer sinks that just blow gross public sink water into your face unexpectedly) and it feels like it's toeing the line between wanting to be upscale and also accommodate the college crowd. I don't know. I could forgive all the weird vibes if the food were better. I will say their tacos are quite large; so don't expect a typical street taco. I had a hard time eating three and I'm a pretty hungry person. So I'd order two, especially if you have any kind of app or side. I would not order the mahi mahi one again. There was SO MUCH (bland) fish in there it fell apart. The pastor was pretty typical, and the camarones (shrimp) one wasn't bad, but it was kind of like a shrimp salad concoction vs a fried shrimp or ceviche kind of application. And they were like teeny mini shrimp. It was well-flavored, though. My Paloma mocktail was solid! Expensive, though, for something without booze in it. Our server was very sweet but perhaps overly attentive, stopped by (not kidding) like 12 times to refill our waters after we'd taken barely a sip.

The camaron didn't have any flavor and I even squeezed lime on it and it didn't help. The tofu was great there was so much flavor in the sauce and topping. The nachos were so good, the salsa verse was spicy and had so much flavor the chips were crispy and because they were a little in the thick side that they didn't get soggy at all. I would get those nachos every time they were amazing! The tees leche was good too the cinnamon and the cake was great it was soft like a pudding. If I ever come back here again.
