It was my first time trying authentic Vietnamese sandwiches and they were delicious. We got the Beef Bulgogi and Lemongrass Chicken (Beef Bulgogi was my fav) but both were so rich. Of course we had to get their Kimchi Fries which are what dreams are actually made of. Service was great. There are multiple locations but if you're around Elmhurst, Queens definitely check it out if you have the chance. You won't be disappointed! One of my favorite obsessions right now.

I'm a total novice to Indonesian food but after really enjoying it at Sumatera, I wanted to try…read morethis place. The restaurant is clean and comfortable and doesn't feel cramped. I ordered the nasi bungkus with fried chicken. This dish comes wrapped in a banana leaf and then wax paper and it's exciting to be able to unwrap it when it arrives at the table. It has a complex heat, tempered with bitterness but is not overly spicy. The fried chicken was incredibly tender- when I attempted to separate the drumstick from the thigh, the bones just pulled right out. The meat is also deeply seasoned throughout. A really fantastic piece of fried chicken. There is ample sauce to season the soft, fluffy rice and the green beans provided a welcome vegetal bite. I loved the hidden hard boiled egg buried in there. I also got a very interesting dessert, Ice doger. It has a base of pink shaved ice and coconut milk and is topped with avocado, black glutenous rice, basil seeds, coconut and cubed white bread. The flavor combination was unique and fascinating. The creamyness of the avocado lends itself perfectly to a dessert, and the grassy vegetal after taste adds complexity. The herbal, sour notes from the basil seeds and the richness of the coconut complement the sweet base, seasoned with condensed milk and the cubes of white bread soak up all the liquid as the ice melts. I loved this dessert. My food took quite a long time to come, but the service was very friendly and helpful and my water was refilled often. The restaurant seemed to be filled with regulars who knew each other and the environment felt warm and homey. Very pleased with my experience and already planning my next trip.

A friend and I came here for lunch. When I arrived she was already there. The waitress was friendly…read moreand attentive. Inside was not very big. We ordered fried shrimp chips, grilled Pompano fish, meatballs with swallowed meat, crispy chicken skin, and fried savory fishcake combo. My friend said Indonesian shrimp chips were not the same as Chinese shrimp chips. These were bigger and denser than the smaller more delicate ones I was use to. Plus the flavor is stronger. The fish was smoky, crispy on the outside moist and flaky on the inside. The meatballs had that unique texture of bouncy and chewy. It had good flavor. There were two different types of noodles in the soup that the meatballs came in. We were also surprised the fried fishcakes also came in a noodle soup. Apparently, the combo comes with noodles in soup even though that's not what the picture looked like. The crispy chicken lived up to its name; it was very crispy but not a whole lot of flavor. Still the crunchy texture made it addictive. If you like authenticate Indonesian flavors you will definitely be happy here.

It's a quick grab some food and go sit kind of spot. They also have several pre-cooked food items in the glass you can see. The place itself looks very clean.

Look out Katz's! I was looking for it up on the menu board, but all I saw was pastrami baos & pastrami rice box. I asked if it was still available and my man hooked me up by popping 2 thick slices of whole grain bread into the toaster and started to hand carve a big hunk of pastrami. I thought I was getting about half of what he pulled out, but he proceeded to pile it all on the bread after squirting on a slew of grainy deli mustard. He apologized for running out of pickles, but all I could think was "Take my money and gimme my sammich!" Even as I cradled the closed plastic container, the smell of hot pastrami permeated my whole bus ride home and I couldn't wait to dig into that salty, peppery crusted, fall apart tender meat sandwich. I'm sure the other people on the bus were jealous. Next time I might even try out some of the other rice & noodle dishes, but that smoky pastrami smell still lingers on in my mind.

I was surprised by a few dear friends for one of my birthday dinners here. They were so kind and…read moregracious to treat me. We had a great, GREAT server named Maggie Chen, whose name I am mentioning here due to the fact she was able to set us up with a free desert for a kind (and fair!) review. So here is my (updated) review: - The rolls we ordered were tasty and fresh. (For me, the Rapunzel Roll SLAPS. I ordered the same one - unknowingly - both times I have been here!) - We shared the Wagyu dumplings and the Shrimp shumai and they were honestly SOOOO GOOD. Finger-licking good!! - We also shared then chicken lo mein - also delicious and a big portion (there were some leftovers) - The staff is always kind and very friendly. Again, Maggie was really sweet, accommodating, took pictures for us and of course helped sing the HBD song which never not embarrasses me ever. darn. time. The ambiance is also always very chill, but a hit higher scale, with its beautifully colored mosaic-like rounded booths and a big, full bar, too. Knowing Mito is so good now and so close to my house can be a bit of a problem. I may become a regular but I guess that'd be a good thing for the business, HA. Thanks Mito for a special birthday dinner! Here's to more to come.

My boyfriend and I got the triple entree combo to try a bunch of different ones. We tried the 3 curries including jungle curry, sour pork, basil pork, and garlic pork.

Cuisine: 7 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 6 Value: 8 Overall: 7 Maybe about a dozen years ago, this place was I think $7.50 for three items over rice. Unfortunately, it is now $18 for the same meal. Still a good deal, but no longer the best bang for your buck any more. Probably why I don't visit as often nowadays. With that said, the quality is similar. Food is served on steamed trays, so you pick your choices over rice. Most of the flavors are still quite amazing, though some food lose their crispiness or a bit lukewarm sitting there. Regardless, always a good. On the negative side, the lady server is literally counting how many little shrimps are in my dish from one of my choices. It felt very odd when she took a shrimp off my plate and put it back into the tray. I asked if I could get a couple more calamari pieces and she said that she would have to remove more shrimp to do so. This was not how they use to operate, but I guess times are tough. On the other hand, I was given a lot more of the string beans with chicken liver, which makes sense since it's a cheaper protein. Btw, the fish is yummy, but you only get about 3-4 pieces. Therefore, I think you should order that item separately and not on rice if you want a decent portion. Bottom line, Khao Kang is no longer where I will go for a delicious cheap meal on regular basis. However, it is still a wonderful quick sit down or grab-n-go spot for some of the most authentic tasting Thai food in NYC for a reasonable price.
