Lunch with appetizer/main entree costs only $30. Additional fee for a dessert and drinks. They have nice selections for their fixed menu . I picked the shrimp summer roll Thai style and Vietnamese pork chop with noodle and Chinese broccoli. I have never enjoyed my meal this much. A flavorful and enticing combo meal. We skipped dessert as we are already filled up by what we got. Our server was so great. Fast and friendly. She even volunteered to take our photo. My friends enjoyed their steak as their entree and rib for appetizer. The place is pretty neat especially its second floor with lots of chandeliers all over the dining area. It's a bit dark on our section . Sears and tables are old but still showing the used to be elegance of the place. Location is at the popular restaurant row. Will come back.

Visited Pan Asia in Lacey for the Monday all you can eat sushi, for $28.95. Nice concept, but…read morethere are some rules... and the sushi was just ok. It's a concept of all you can eat, soup, salad, 2 rolls of your choice, at one time, nigiri, and either ice cream or sherbert. We ordered an appetizer from the main menu, the rangoon, was good. Now lunch was from the special all you can eat menu Monday menu, which is different than the full restaurant menu. There are a couple of special rolls on there. I tried the shrimp tempura roll, which I've never seen shrimp tempura look like a fish stick style, no shrimp tail at all, very odd. The rolls were prepared larger in size, I guess to get you full, or to not get you to follow one of their rules. So you must eat all of the sushi even the rice, you can't eat out the middle, even if you don't like it, before you can be served another option of the all you can eat items. The waitress literally pointed which sushi my guest didn't eat, as they went to order another option. Mind you, both of our rolls came on one plate, as if we were sharing. We did not like the fatty tuna with scallions, it was dry and very fishy. The spicy tuna which most places serve minced was more whole pieces, very different. Different is good, when it's flavorful, but this was missing it's punch. The kami salad was layered which was nice, but too much spicy mayo for the ratio, ask for your sauce on the side so you can mix it, since you mix it yourself anyway. The cucumber came layered under the crab, and the sauce on top, I actually liked that. The teas and soups were good, Dragon roll was my favorite, it was the shrimp tempura and salmon mixed. Try for yourself. It was a cute experience with good chocolate ice cream.

The restaurant is medium sized, lots of booths, and was decorated for Valentine's Day. They take reservations and were pretty busy. Service was good, although a little slow at the beginning. I tried the following dishes: Cauliflower Manchurian (3/5): This dish was pretty good, but not amazing. I did enjoy it. Garlic Chili Noodles (3.5/5): Pretty good noodles, not very spicy but good flavor and consistency. Hakka Chili Chicken (4/5): I liked this chicken, but my dining partner did not. The chicken was boneless dark meat, which I really like. You can get it with no, light, or full gravy. We did full and had it with rice. I did enjoy this dish. Overall, I had a pretty good experience at HAKA. No dishes were real standouts, but they were all decent. It is not a bad option for Indo-Chinese in the area.

The menu has both indian and chinese dishes. It's not fusion just two different cuisines being sold. We ordered a roll that came with shrimp tempura, mango and salmon. It was very good, a warm grill that felt like a sandwich. The side galore noodles we ordered were dry and not very flavourful. We ordered shrimp with then and they came with fried/tempura shrimp, which we found odd. There was also egg on the dish but it did nothing for the noodles. We ordered the noodles regular so they should have had some sauce but there was none. The chicken dishes were both really good. The chicken wasn't overly fried or breaded. It tasted fresh and had a good bite to it. I like the spicy garlic chicken a bit more because of the spice. The haka chicken was more of a sweet and salty flavor. Both were tasty. If I'm in the area I'll come back here.

I have no complaints about the food. We mostly ordered some boring but tasteful Thai dishes so we never really saw what this restaurant was capable of. And I understand in large groups, sometimes the personal effect of proper service can be compromised. But there is no excuse for the waitress screaming at the patrons. Here is what happened. The waitress was behind me and she was clearly frustrated with the large group. Trying to get the groups attention, she actually screamed "who wants more wine?" And she screamed right into my ears as I was seated in front of her. I said "Don't scream in my ears!". And do you know her response? She said "well then,don't listen!" She simply could've said "I'm sorry" and that would've been the end of it!no yelp critique. The rest of the dinner was plagued with poor attention by the waitress. Dishes took over a half hour to come. No need for that. We were ordering noodle dishes,ten minute tops. Will I return?perhaps because they are the only game in town. They have a captive audience. Maybe the waitress was just having a bad evening. Still, there's no excuse for her behavior.

I was craving ramen and happened to be in the area to remember about this spot. The restaurant is small with limited seating but they make do with how quickly they serve you. The inside decor is amazing, like it literally feels like you're in Japan- wooden interior with masks on the wall and Japanese writing. So beautiful inside. Parking is also limited with very few in the back of the building and some in the front. They have a custom where everyone greets you as you're coming in also which makes it feel even more welcoming. I came back to 2 of my regular orders: - Shrimp Tempura Bun: The shrimp tempura came out so crisp and the bun altogether with the green onion and filling bought it all completely together. Such a solid bun. -Shoyu Truffle Ramen: I don't eat pork so I wanted something not pork based- they do have a few options but this is the one I keep coming back to. Pretty solid ramen- the noodles are not overcooked and the combination of all the ingredients is thought provoking- I literally thought about their art of finding all the flavors and perfectly combining them together into this ramen bowl midway through eating this ramen. The tempura mushrooms is such a nice touch and even as it becomes soaked in the soup it still has such a nice taste to it. Overall a solid ramen spot- I definitely recommend.

I will only post about a restaurant that I think is exceptional. 10 years ago I stopped working as…read morea chef at an exceptional restaurant (LB Social in Long Beach). My culinary influences were always affected by various ethnic cuisines. We live in the most culturally diverse area in the country. I do not eat sushi, but it is my wife's comfort food so I always say yes because our local place makes a very good chicken katsu. They do not make katsu curry which is one of my comfort foods. Everytime we order, I make curry sauce for the chicken. Tonight I had the BEST Katsu Curry (technically I got the Kaarage Curry). Holy crap it was so good. Japanese curries are not spicy, they tend to be a bit sweeter because of carrots and usually grated apple or honey for sweetness. The balance on that sauce was spot on perfect. The Kaarage (Japanese Fried Chicken thighs) was the perfect match for this curry. Exceptional!!! My wife got the fresh grilled eel over rice. She absolutely loved it. There is something about rice when it is perfectly cooked. This was no exception. My wife who is cutting back carbs ate every grain of rice in bowl. I havent seen her do that in years. I first heard about Youta because of their ramen. It did not disappoint. I judge ramen on its broth. This was silky, rich, a bit garlicky and porky liquid goodness. I prefer a slightly thicker noodle but I cant fault them. The noodles had the right amount of chew that separates the really good from meh. The bamboo shoots were a very happy surprise. The jammy egg was perfection. Damn I really love this place. We did not have the Baos but they looked amazing as they came out of the kitchen. They do not take reservations but there is an app for the waiting list. That was a very pleasant surprise at how easy and functional it was. You have 5 minutes to respond to the text and if you are not there in 10 minutes, they wipe your spot. I apologize for no pictures, we will definitely be back and I will definitely get the Kaarage Curry. Please support this AMAZING restaurant. The service was as great as the food.

My friends enjoyed their meals as well, including the lo mein, fried rice, lamb chops, filet mignon beef and broccoli. The drinks were great, but the ambience really made the night.

Waiter was friendly and gave us some time to make our selections. I chose the egg roll, tangerine beef. Hubby chose the orange chicken. I asked the waiter if the soda came in a can. He said yes. We then waited for our meal. He returned quickly with my soda, in a glass with lots of ice. Not what I expected. But I guess I wasn't specific about my drink order. My egg roll was good. Cut decoratively in half at an angle, piping hot. Our food arrived shortly. Both plates were generous and came with white rice. Cut a portion in small pieces to taste with rice. Tasted so good, burned my tongue a little it was so hot. Ate a bit more, and that's when my mouth started burning up! The dish was a little more spicy than I expected. Tried to eat more, but it was too much for me. My hubby on the other hand was in his glory. He Loves heat. The spiciest the better. He tried mine and said it was just as spicy as his, which he loved. So, I just thought we would take mine home for him to enjoy later. I have to say it was good, before I had to cry uncle. So would definitely have to return for another try and let them know I can't take the spiciness. I did notice that the restaurant was busy with takeout orders. So I guess that's their main business. So I wouldn't say this was a cozy place. But the food is good. Lots of parking outside since they're next to a supermarket and liquor store. There weren't any 'lunch' specials, so this was over $50 with tip. By the way, lots to choose from the menu. I only took pictures of some pages.

I got the Pho with duck, and my wife got the crispy duck dinner. Both dishes were "meh" at best. Below average. As far as service... it was harried and we were only one of two couples eating in this "NOT so cozy" restaurant. We went at 5:30 expecting to wait because it was small and "cozy" and it was Chinese New year. (1) no problem eating in during dinner hours (2) not a stitch of celebratory anything for Chinese New Year.. not even a place mat. No chinese noodles at the table and there was one continuous plain bench and brown tables (no table cloths) on the opposite side aka cafe style and cafeteria style seats. Hardly "cozy" at all. Overall high expectations, below average experience, ambiance and food.
