This is not my normal dim sum place, but it's fairly close to my sister and her boyfriend, so we…read moredecided to give it a go. To be transparent, I have been here before, but it's just been a long time. Food was on a menu with some trays going around. I did miss the carts, but I understand entirely why that is cumbersome, as the space was a little tight if it were busy. When we were there, there weren't issues. I did like the food. It was all so quick coming out and still super fresh. The sticky rice was probably my favorite item. My least favorite was the chili oil. I'm one of those people who eats ALL the oil and drinks like 3 pots of tea. Unfortunately, it's not really all that spicy, but that is a personal preference.

I like the chicken feet, the texture of the har gow wrapper, the soy sauce for the shrimp crepes, the louts root cakes, and the baked egg custard buns!

We tried the double sided noodles with chicken and kung pao beef, both excellent choices in my opinion! The beef was expertly seasoned and cooked with fresh not frozen pea pods and onions. The double sided noodles were not expected as they seemed dry but then once marinated in the sauce from the chicken it was fabulous! We also had to obviously have egg rolls and some potstickers. My friend had to have her prerequisite hot and sour soup that I didn't take a picture of, but they were happy with it. Try this restaurant out, the staff was super friendly without constantly dropping by, just enough to refill water glasses and c h deck in on us.

I went here on a whim simply because we had planned to see a movie near this restaurant. It was…read moreChristmas Day and we only had to wait 15 minutes for a party of two. We tried the Szechuan dumplings in chili oil, cream cheese wontons, and the kung pao chicken. There was a lot on the menu that caught my eye, especially the orange beef - but unfortunately, they do not sell that dish anymore. The dumplings were mostly warm, but some were cold. The flavor was impeccable, so I didn't mind the mixed temperature. That's something that could be improved. I haven't ever ordered kung pao chicken, so I don't really have anything to compare it to, but it was amazing. Seasoned well and served with a little heat. The amount of chicken you get is impressive. It is served with a side of rice. The wontons were some of the hottest/freshest wontons I've ever eaten. Steam was coming out of my mouth! It definitely was a fresh order due to them originally forgetting that part of our order. I was pleasantly surprised by this experience, although the dumplings were cold, and an order of wontons was served late, everything was unique and cooked well. The flavors are amazing. Will definitely be back.

Amazingly for living in the South West Suburbs of Minneapolis (or maybe a little farther than what…read moreyou would consider that), I had never been to Lat14. Lat14 Asian Eatery is a critically acclaimed restaurant in Golden Valley, Minnesota, created by Chef Ann Ahmed. Its name comes from the 14th parallel north, inspiring a menu of bold, shareable Southeast Asian dishes from Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, and the Philippines. The food was phenomenal, which shouldn't be surprising coming from Chef Ann Ahmed's pedigree of awards. We started with a couple of appetizers. First was the Basil Wings which were Tempura Fried with Thai Basil, Jalapenos, and a Signature Dry Rub. Wow the tempura gave a satisfying crunch with a beautiful zing of spices. Next was the Snow Crab Wontons which were filled with Cream Cheese, Snow Crab, and served with Apricot Sweet Chili. These were stuffed with crab and you totally could taste it. The sweet/spicy sauce with nice acidic bite cut through the cream cheese very well. For my main, I went with the Lao Yum Salad which consisted of Mixed Greens, Tomato, Cucumber, Red Onion, Toasted Almonds, Watermelon Radish, Hard Boiled Egg and Lao Yum Dressing. Perfectly balanced and the dressing was delightful. Oh, and can't forget about the House Pickle Assortment of delicious tangy morsels. ___

It had been a long while since I was last able to visit this establishment, since I now live out of…read morestate. When I recently finally got a chance to go while in town, it was a must visit. I used to go at least once a month when living in state and on the west side of the river, especially when they had happy hour (the one negative aspect I have to report. But I digress...) Ann Ahmed is a Laotian-American Minnesotan and 3 times James Beard semi-finalist. This restaurant is known to serve food around the "14th latitude" and is FAMILY STYLE, so keep in mind while ordering. The food also comes out as it is ready rather than all at once per course. My twin sister and I went one cloudy summer's afternoon and sat outside on the patio, surrounded by lush greenery under decorative cloth shading hung above us. Of course, we got the lumpia, which they split in half for us since it was only us two and they come 3 to a plate (or 4 if you pay an extra $8 or something...) and the nam khao for "starters." For once, we both decided to try something different rather than our go-to (heavenly exquisite) Khao soi (sincerely, just divine). I ordered the pad thai with fried tofu and she ordered the squash curry with a side of roasted chicken to add. We both also got cocktails. I got the mango margarita and my sister got the old fashion (lat 14 style). The lumpia are crispy, flaky and filled with the perfect ratio of succulent pork to fillings served with a spicy dipping sauce. When cut in half, they sear the end of the cut portion to seal in the flavor and contents. Next came the khao soi, a dish to tantalize and tease the palate with the crunch of puffed rice and peanuts and the umami bite of pork flavored with lemongrass and other seasonings wrapped in a crispy lettuce leaf. Living currently in Miami, an absolute vacuum for even gross asian food, I was CRAVING pad thai and Lat 14 delivered. Perfectly cooked noodles with the right amount of sauce (not too dry and not swimming either) with lots of protein, perfectly cooked scrambled egg, fresh beansprouts that don't overcrowd the other ingredients and the crushed fresh peanuts hit every note my taste buds craved. I also was allowed to try the curry and never knew squash curry with coconut was the flavor I missed in my life. All in all, is it pricy? Yes. Are the portions also generous? Most definitely. Is it worth it and your wallet will be begging you to lighten itself by another visit? ABSOLUTELY! Also, our server was attentive, knowledgable and kind.

I was craving Chinese food tonight but wanted to try someplace new. After looking at the menu, I…read moredecided to give them a try. I was expecting just the basic American Chinese, but this was definitely a very elevated version of it. I ordered the hot and spicy wontons (dumplings) and ordered them "very spicy". I'd have loved more spice, but I added some chili oil at home and they were perfect. I got the Kung Pao Beef combination that comes with fried rice and an egg roll. The fried rice wasn't full of carrots and peas, so I was already happy, but it was really well flavored with a little egg in it. The vegetables were the perfect level of crunchy and the gravy was well seasoned. It went great with the fried rice. Appreciated how efficient the woman at the counter was. I was so pleasantly surprised by this place. I'll definitely be back again.

We had such a great experience at Urban Wok in St. Louis Park. My sister and I decided to dine in…read moreand were impressed from start to finish. We started with the vegetable spring rolls, which were crisp, fresh, and served with a flavorful agave, ginger and sriracha sauce. It was the perfect light appetizer. For our main dishes, we ordered two wraps, the Thai Noodle Wrap with tofu and the Island Time Wrap with chicken. Both were absolutely delicious. The Thai Noodle Wrap had just the right amount of heat from the blackberry habanero drizzle and a creamy balance from the spicy peanut sauce. The Island Time Wrap was bright and tropical with pineapple, basmati rice, and a fantastic ginger teriyaki flavor. We loved that everything was customizable, clearly labeled with gluten-free options, and cooked fresh right in front of us. The kiosk ordering system was quick and easy, and our server Mark T. made sure everything came out perfectly. Urban Wok has such a fun and modern vibe with food that's flavorful, healthy, and totally crave-worthy. We'll definitely be back.

It's a very good idea to have this kind of fast casual option in this spot, in this busy area where…read morethere are so many restaurants that are more "involved". I've gotten two build-your-own style stir fries here and they honestly tasted great. I got one with dumplings tossed in there and those dumplings were satisfying too. This is quick, satisfying food. I came in this last time because I got an email that advertised "$.75 chicken wings". That was misleading; you still had to buy them in quantities of at least 6. I wanted to mix and match a few to try their flavors, but that didn't appear to be an option. Also not an option was using the remainder of my gift card to pay for part of the order. Suckering people out of a few bucks from a giftcard is a scam that does not sit well with me. Also their machines (you order from a screen at the counter & they bring it to you at your seat) had a lot of trouble reading my giftcard. Maybe avoid their giftcards. Okay but the people there are friendly and they seem to be working hard to get your order quickly. And again, it all tasted great. I got their jalapeno sauce on the side for one of them and it was very yummy, but it was also yummy without it. When you select your ingredients for a build-your-own, additional vegetables that weren't requested turn up in the mix. I don't know if it's an on-purpose thing for flavor reasons or that it's just hard to wrangle diced red peppers and cabbage, but take note. One more thing... there is a water cooler that appears to be there for you to have some free water. But the water is... not transparent? Is there lemon in there? Cucumber? Horseradish? It looked grimy and unappetizing and so I didn't pour myself a cup of water even though I was thirsty.

Trash!!! FIRST AND LAST TIME!!!…read more Never been here, always drove by it for years and it looked crappy but my niece wanted to go here for her bday dinner- Was supposed to be beautiful evening, i didnt eat because i ate beforehand but my daughter wanted to go and it was my nieces bday! Upon entering it reeks of raw, spoiled meat i had to cover my nose to stop from gagging. My daughter didnt want to walk around and find food, she shy (pretty common for children) so i went up and made her a plate, she said the beef was dry i got her, so i asked our waiter for steak sauce and took a bite and told her to try it and it was better. The little boy at front door the little hostess guy, who claimed to be the ' manager ' said it cost $25 if i want to make her plate for her!! And that I wasnt allowed to get up, or try her beef and season it for her- unless i paid 25 dollars.. i told him thats outrageous and i wont help her anymore and he said doesnt matter and demanded 25 dollars!! He called me a liar and proceeded to argue with me in front of the kids! He lied and said i asked the waiter for silverware - never happened!!! So i left, who pays 25 dollars for one bite of dry beef?!!! This place is horrible, horrible food, horrible prices, horrible service, horrible customer service and location etc. literally the worst "restaurant " i been to in years!!! As a daughter of a very prominent, local attorney and someone who has been in hospitality for over 20 years - not how this should ever be handled! I told him, he didn't tell me that I was not allowed to leave the seat and get my daughter her plate for her if she didn't want to go up and get her plate and then I told him that he didn't tell me that and he told me I had to ask him for him to tell me.... Insanity! I don't work there I'm not the "manager" you don't ever tell a customer that it's their job to do his job... Its clearly his first job and he sucks at it. Also, BBB will be notified. HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!! Save your money, this is bottom of the barrel. I told the man that kicked me out for taking a bite of my daughters dry, unseasoned beef and me helping her season it. He ruined my nieces birthday and he didnt care at all. Heavy serial killer vibes!! Zero empathy!! Or common sense etc. Yuck, yuck, yuck!! Do not waste your time, take your hard earned money to a place with quality food and service instead!
