This was one of the best meals I've ever had in Utica. Although the menu is pan-Asian, with Indian, Chinese, Korean, Thai, and Burmese cuisine featured, we ordered five Burmese items: the tea leaf salad, coconut noodle, fish noodle soup, Burmese milk tea, and a coconut milk-based sticky rice dessert. Everything was terrific and authentic. The tea leaf salad was actually quite spicy, but wonderfully pungent and intense yet textured with the crunchy peanuts. I also loved the mohinga--this, too, was a slightly spicier version than what I've had in the past. However, I loved how flavorful it was. Milder in flavor was the coconut noodle soup, which our toddlers liked more. The milk tea was sweet and strong--a great accompaniment to our savory and spicy meal. To end our meal, we got a box of five pieces of sweet coconut milk sticky rice cake, which was chewy and very yummy! The food was all made fresh to order, affordably priced, and truly delicious. The restaurant itself was spacious and clean. It seemed like it was a bit of a hangout spot for Burmese in the community. Dawn Light is an absolute highlight in the Utica restaurant scene--I wish them longevity as I hope to return many times in the future!

We got bulgogi, pork fried rice, and fried pork pieces. Everything seemed fresh and well made, and the rice in the fried rice was very well prepared. Others have mentioned overly sweet food, I believe, and that was thankfully not our experience at all, at least with these dishes. While well-prepared, all the food seemed somewhat bland, missing seasoning and - most shockingly - salt. Once we added some, the food was immeasurably better. Prices, too, were definitely high, and the portions, while reasonable, didn't match the prices. I think we'll try again.

I always loved Viatnamese food so I was eager to give this restaurant a try. We were greeted instantly when walking in the door and the restaurant gave off a warm and friendly vibe, so I knew that we were in for a good dining experience.

The meal was also decently priced and if I find myself in Ithaca again I could probably afford it on my own budget. I'm glad that my family gave the recommendations because we had a great experience and I would recommend it to any college student looking for a nice study break or a family coming in for a fun meal.

Good Jajjangmyeon in Ithaca!…read more My parents recommended this spot to me- and they are very particular about their Asian food. They absolutely hated Kimchi. I finally got around to trying Asia Cuisine though must admit I was a bit hesitant given their extensive menu (I feel like if a restaurant offers too many types of cuisines the quality takes a hit). However, I was pleasantly surprised! I had been craving jajjangmyeon (I had it once at Koko's but it was not good) and ordered Asia Cuisine's C3 green tea noodle w jajang sauce. The noodles were delicious! Al dente and the slightest hint of green tea flavor! The jajang sauce was a tad oily and not super traditional, though I still enjoyed it- especially the addition of onions! Service was okay. Nothing exceptional. While I haven't tried any of their other menu items, I would recommend their green tea noodle jajjangmyeon!

Ambiance is nice, service was just okay. Recs/what we tried: - sweet potato fries ($8): 4/5; pretty good, but tasted pretty standard - good for sharing, very filling. - braised pork belly ($13): 2/5; this dish was too oily for my liking, between the pork drenched in a sauce and the toasted bun - portion size was also way too small, and barely came with any meat. - panang curry ($20): 5/5. my friend's favorite that he orders every time; great option for vegetarians. - most of the desserts we've tried here weren't impressive; would skip them. Overall, I'm not sure I'd recommend - I personally didn't find too many things I liked the menu.

I personally love their ramen, their build-your-own rice bowls, and their strawberry fruit green tea with strawberry boba, but that's just the beginning of what they have here. I also really like their online ordering system, because then I can just put in what I want, how I want it, and then go to the pick-up counter to get it. Wonderful for a picky eater like me! I've never eaten in the restaurant, but there is ample seating and it is always clean. Very much worth the trip every time!

There was hardly any fish in my poke bowl. My tea was okay, though I asked for 0 sugar it still tasted quite sweet. Boba was fine. A little annoying that they charge you extra for a hot tea vs a cold one. I wouldn't recommend their poke but will likely return to try another drink on their menu and perhaps pick up some of their snacks.
