    Pineapple Curry
    Chris L.

    If you're looking for an excellent Asian Fusion Restaurant, this is the place for you. The food tasted fresh and the portions were a nice size. The Vietnamese Egg Rolls had a perfect crunch and the dipping sauce was perfect, not too much fish sauce. My Wife ordered the Mongolian Beef and it had the perfect Wok Hay flavor. I had the Pineapple Curry, and it was amazing, with lots of vegetables and the most delicious flavor. My favorite Thai Restaurant closed recently, and I haven't been able to find the perfect curry until now. I highly recommend this place, because you will not be disappointed!

    Salmon plate. Includes nigiri, sashimi and rolls.

    Growing up in LA and living in Hawaii, I am picky about sushi and sashimi. I would have never thought I'd find a gem in the heart of the South Valley! Absolutely fresh and delish (I did get up and look at the fish prior to ordering!) Pepper 1 also has Thai and Chinese food which is good since my husband does not eat sushi or sashimi. He had the General Tso and it was not the frozen pre breaded chicken like other restaurants, but fresh, light and crispy. He said it was one of the best he's ever had. Staff were great and service swift. Can't wait to go back!

    All gone!!! That's how good it was.

    Food and service were great! We had the Mongolian beef, orange chicken, crab rangoon, coconut shrimp, lo mein, and various sushi and sashimi rolls. All the food was amazing. The beef was a bit spongy, but the rest was amazing! Great, friendly service too! Don't miss this place.

This is a one-of-a-kind place, the Vietnamese fusion flavors are so delicious, the fresh herbs and vegetables pop with brightness alongside the perfectly prepared seafood and meats. We went for my husband's birthday and the Alkeme team made it an unforgettable evening. They gave him a free sparkling wine for his bday :) He ordered the sake pairing for the "sea" tasting menu, and wow, we've never tried sakes this innovative. You can tell the sakes were carefully selected, some more light, others more earthy, all of them excellent. I ordered the Sticky Business cocktail, and damn, it was amazing!! Their take on a tiki drink but less sweet, with a boozey foam and mango pearls. The service was wonderful. We got to talk to Chef Erica, which was very cool, and Vickie gave lovely descriptions of our dishes. They and our waitress made my husband's birthday so special. This restaurant in my opinion is James Beard and/or Michelin level dining. We loved everything about it. I highly recommend Alkeme, we'll never forget this special meal!

The crispy cod was well prepared and layered with flavor. The carrot soup was a little bland. The colossal shrimp and pork belly came on a bright, fresh, and somewhat messy bed of slaw and greens, but the dish needed a little more heat or sauce to bring everything together. The shrimp were also slightly overcooked. Service was slow and a bit fussy at the same time. The dining room is tight, which seems to make it difficult for servers to flow through the space efficiently, so that may explain some of the issues.

And sometimes when there's limited choice here I'll make do with what is available. Fortunately this place is great. You can order a single broth or a split pot. I usually go with the taiwan spicyy broth and one of the others. It's always good, regardless of what ingredients you order they'll pile the plate high. They offer tons of condiments and ice cream for desert. I've also ordered this as delivery which I thought was impossible. But they make it work. You order your broth (single flavor uless you get two orders of broth). You also order your ingredients and whatevder sides you want. I usually get beef, pork and meatballs. Rather than cooking yourself they come cooked in a container with a little brother and you add them at your leisure. I usually get the spicy chicken nuggets as a side and they are delicious. It's a huge portion of food and I almost always have leftovers. Great place!

First the food. It was absolutely fabulous. The appetizers were perfectly crispy and the sauce was not overpowering - they let the chicken do the talking. The broth was spicy but a little oily tasting. I was sweating the whole time which was awesome! The veggies, meats and mushrooms all had great flavor. This place was obviously using fresh ingredients. I'm sharing a copy of my bill so you can see that they itemize for things like the sauce/ ice cream bar as well as the cc fee. I like when restaurants do this because it means that they don't make everyone pay for things if they don't want those things. It means that this restaurant is going the extra mile to provide a good value. We were impressed and we'll be back for more awesome food and excellent service!

My husband got the miso soup and I wanted to try the egg drop chicken and corn soup. I enjoyed the egg, drop chicken corn soup it was like campbell's chicken noodle soup with some corn. My husband said his miso soup was ok. For main dishes my husband had sushi and I had the classic spicy pad thai. My pad thai was good and very reasonably priced I could not finish it and took home half. The sushi on the other hand was a bit expensive smaller portion and took a while for them to prepare it. My husband said it was mediocre and has had better sushi at other places in town and probably won't get sushi here next time. We heard that this place is closing so we hope to give it another try before they permanently close.

We also got a parking spot up front, but I will say parking in the front, the spaces were a little tight. The calamari was pretty good with the lime might sauce. I was a little surprised at how tasty it was. My girlfriend always gets the Shaking Beef here and I've had her leftovers many of times from another location and they usually over sauce it. Over here, it was just right. The fish part of my Fish & Chips were very good. The Sriracha aoli paired well with it, I didnt touch the tartar sauce. Shoe string fries, not my thing. Would like like a bit bigger portion size on the fish though. That's probably why its server with such small skinny fries, to balance out the fish portion size. Overall we had a nice dinner out.

I took in the ambiance and noticed the restaurant was pretty spacious, the tables/booths were decently sized so you have enough space for your things or if you want to spread out. The theme and decor seemed to be Hawaiian so that interesting. While waiting for our waiter I overheard the man who sat us telling another table that Sunday was all day happy hour, which he never told us about but I'm glad I overheard it. So once our waiter came, I asked him to confirm. I got the lemon grass pear martini, which was made perfectly, and was absolutely delicious. It was my favorite of the night! For the appetizers, we got Shanghai shrimp, it came with two dips (mint cilantro dip and not sure what the other one was). The other appetizer we got where the dumplings. The inside was pork and vegetables (Shanghai, dipping sauce, but tasted like sauce sauce). Both appetizers were delicious, I'd definitely order again. For our entrees, I ordered the Sesame chicken it came with broccoli and I got white rice, it was perfect, and everything I wanted! I'm glad our waiter confirmed because I was stuck between that and the red curry beef. My dining companion ordered the rice paper salmon, which comes with mango, pineapple, salsa, Shanghai sauce, and sweet cucumbers. They loved it, and the large was enough to take to go and have the next day. All in all, we had a great service from our waiter Ronny, a nice dining experience and fabulous drinks!
