Had a craving for Asian food on a late Sunday evening so decided to try this place. The place was…read moreslow with one other table with customers, We were greeted by our server and ordered promptly. We chose the Pad See Ew with pork and Basil Ground Pork and egg. The food came out piping hot and fresh. Both dishes were tasty and reasonably nice portions. The Pad See Ew did not have a lot of pork, however it was fresh and good flavor. I ordered medium spicy and it came out perfect. The Basil ground pork dish had a lot of green beans and not much of the basil flavor I expected but it was fresh and flavorful. I would probably hold the green beans next time but that's my preference. Overall, everything was very good and hit the spot. I would like to try some other dishes next visit. I would give it a strong 4.2 if I could rate in between 4 and 5. Also note our service was excellent and the server made numerous visits to check on us. Thanks

I have eaten at hundreds of Asian restaurants in my life. This was absolutely the worst- bar none…read more Here is the recipe: steam vegetables for a few minutes until they are not steamed at all. Drop them in a can of coconut milk. Pair it with the cheapest quality of rice on the market (Uncle Ben?). Call it Panang curry. I had to throw it away, and for me to throw away food it must be absolutely stomach-turning. The young lady at the register had a slight accent, and in order to do pleasant small talk I asked her where she was from, having an accent myself. I thought we may be from the same country. She said she could not reveal private information. That was absolutely weird, also considering that customers receipts, including their signatures and how much they tipped, are pasted by the register. An absolute and far more serious violation of customers' privacy. But, if we stick to the food only, it's an absolutely must avoid. Minus 10 stars. That bad and worse.

Unfortunately, this was a subpar experience for a restaurant that specializes in sushi. The hours…read moreposted on the door were inaccurate, and after being seated we were informed that the kitchen would be closing in five minutes. The food was underwhelming from the start. The edamame seemed as though it had been cooked earlier and simply reheated before being served. The sushi rolls appeared hastily assembled, and the avocado was overly mushy. The spicy tuna roll was unusual, consisting of plain tuna with sriracha drizzled on top rather than a traditional spicy tuna mixture. The California roll was generic and forgettable. The Philly roll was the best item we tried, but the smoked salmon tasted as though it may not have been at its freshest. Service was acceptable--nothing particularly bad, but nothing that stood out either. Overall, the experience did not live up to expectations, and there are better sushi options available for the price.

We are visiting from out of town, but family members assured us this was a good place too. We were seated in a lovely place by the door, with views outside. Unfortunately NOBODY came to take any order for almost 20 minutes and this was after we alerted the host. Overall the food was great, but the service was so bad. The server blamed it on the kitchen, but the place was not busy when we arrived and maybe the kitchen would not be backed up if the servers took care of their tables in a timely manner. Never going back.

My husband had been wanting to try this place for a while, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The atmosphere is dimly lit, intimate, and incredibly romantic... even though we brought our 10-year-old daughter along with her tablet. lol. The staff couldn't have been more welcoming, and we felt comfortable from the moment we walked in. The menu is unique and thoughtfully curated, but they were kind enough to make an off-menu lemon butter penne for our daughter, which she happily devoured. My husband and I shared the whole fried branzino, and it was the star of the meal...perfectly crispy on the outside, tender and flaky inside, and incredibly fresh. We paired it with a Caesar salad, which was simple and delicious. For drinks, I enjoyed a refreshing rosé while my husband ordered the Blood Orange Martini. Both were excellent and complemented the meal perfectly. The highlight of the evening, though, was our server, James. He brought such fun, positive energy to the table. We joked around with him throughout the night, and every time he stopped by to check on us, we found ourselves laughing. Service like that makes a great meal even more memorable. If you're looking for a romantic dinner spot with exceptional food, creative cocktails, and genuinely outstanding service, Sunday Sunday is absolutely worth a visit. We'll definitely be back.

This place was awesome! Visited Brunswick for 2 weeks and so happy i ventured into this little shop. It's a one man show doing everything- answering phone & taking orders, seating guests, and obviously doing the cooking. The vermicelli noodles I ordered were so perfect!

I didn't mind because it tasted wonderful. The spice level here is to be respected. I went with a 3 on all of my dishes and it was plenty hot. The server also brought us a spice tray which had 3 different items to choose from. I added some of the Thai chili sauce with fish oil. Deep and funky it adds another layer to an already delicious dish. Service was friendly. This place gets busy and food sometimes comes out a little slow. Be patient and respect the process.
