On our way home from Miami and in the mood for noodles, so we found this place…read more The food was good, served fresh & hot, but no spice on anything, even when we asked for "hot"... Service was slow as trying to pour molasses in wintertime, and since our server wanted to take orders without writing anything down, one of our meals got forgotten til we asked for it and didn't come til everyone else was half done. Zero attention payed to plating. Ambiance is non existent here. Bare tables and walls, a half burnt out TV on one wall playing a K-Pop rap battle show, and that's it.

Solid spot in Pembroke Pines. Service was average but still satisfying enough for me…read more This is a reliable lunch or takeout option for Asian food in Pembroke Pines. The food was decent--I got the bento box (a good deal at $15) and the chicken katsu (average at best). Nothing surprised me, but that's the charm here: consistency over flash.

Mind blown- I had my very first Korean corn dog at Chowology, and I honestly don't even know how to…read moredescribe how amazing the experience was. I was today years old when I realized there is no actually hot dog inside! Instead, it's this incredibly yummy, gooey melted cheese stick covered in a crispy, salty-sweet potato square crust. If you have never had one of these, seriously--run, don't walk. It is an absolute must-try. Because the corn dog was so filling, I ended up having to take my main dish home, but it made for the best leftovers! I ordered the chicken katsu, and it was perfectly crispy. The edamame and pineapple in the katsu were a fresh touch that I really loved. Another major standout my friend got was the golden curry pineapple fried rice with shrimp. The balance of the savory curry heat with the sweet bursts of pineapple and plump shrimp was absolutely delicious. To top it all off, we grabbed some of their teas, I had passionfruit and my friend got the ombré passionfruit lemonade, which were refreshing, and the ideal way to round out a massive, flavor-packed meal.

You might not know about Baoshi Food Hall + Bar in Pembroke Pines yet, but you seriously should. It…read moreis such a cool Asian food hall with a great bar and four or five little kiosks where you can get pretty much anything you want, from yummy sushi and ramen to Korean hot wings, dumplings, and mochi. The best part is that you don't even need to move from your table. Unlike most food halls where you have to stand in line at different places, here you just scan a QR code and the menus from each place come up. You can order from any of the kiosks or the bar all at once, and they bring everything right to your table. You get the variety of five different places in one spot completely seamlessly. For drinks, I had a mule and a lychee martini, and both were strong, delicious, and really well presented. Food-wise, I ordered the fried wontons and steamed dumplings from one kiosk, and my friend ordered the Korean chicken wings from another. We also shared a really good sushi roll with fresh crab and eel that was very large and filling. We ended the night with strawberry mochi for dessert. They also have a schedule for their entertainment with something going on almost every single night. The night we were there, they had a DJ playing 80s music, which made me very happy. This is a fun night out.

They have a huge selection of food, and everything on the menu looked delicious. It actually made it hard to decide, but it also gave us a good reason to come back and try Ramen next time! I ordered the Honeymoon Roll and the Japanese Lover Roll, and my husband had a sushi sashimi combo. We were both very happy with our meals. The Honeymoon Roll was honestly one of the best sushi rolls I've ever had. The service was prompt, friendly, and very attentive throughout our meal. The atmosphere was cute and lively. While I think it's better suited for a casual lunch or a fun dinner than a, romantic date night, it's a great place to bring family. I know my kids would absolutely love it, and we'll definitely be back.

Salmon skin (we added cream cheese), the Gamdam and the Orange dragon roll. We loved all 3. The Gamdam was my favorite. The different textures were just perfect. My husband had spicy drunken noodles with chicken. He said it was perfectly spicy. Service was very friendly. We got there about 45 minutes before closing and we never felt rushed. There were people who got there after us and they were also served at a nice pace. Can't wait to go back!

It definitely was a hefty wait for the empanadas that has been trending on social media. You can tell that it is somewhat disorganized, as there was only one person outside helping with clearing the dishes, serving the dishes; one person taking orders from a nonstop line and one male in the back working up to go orders. I feel like if there was more organization, it would be better. However, the empanadas were very filling. One empanadas is enough to provide all the protein servings in a day. We ordered the beef empanadas, and it was definitely filled to the brim. It was an interesting take, with Filipino flavors of beef and cabbage stuffed inside, with a side of soy sauce vinaigrette. I also noticed a whole lechon placed on the table beside the cashier that looked like it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I would love to come back on a less busy day to try the hot foods on the menu and maybe give a better rating next time.

This restaurant/grocery store Filipino business is in a strip mall at the NW corner of Douglas and…read morePembroke Roads. It's a small mom-and-pop place with an eclectic decor that really falls under a "hodgepodge" look. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon at 1:30 p.m. The place was quite busy and we could only see about two or three people that seemed to be working there. But there were more in the back. However, maybe a total of four or five. And there had to be about 30 patrons in the dining room, not to mention a nonstop line at the register. We ordered within 15 minutes of seating oursleves. But waited an hour and a half for our food. (Inquired several times. Got frustrated and almost left. But as luck would have it, it was one of our very few lazy Saturday afternoons. So, we decided to wait it out.) While we waited, we browsed the grocery area that displayed all sorts of chips, crackers, and sauces. There are even refrigerators and freezers with items to be purchased. (I got a bag of frozen Ube buns.) When the food arrived, it was (almost) worth the wait. We got four Fiesta Specials, with shrimp chips, lumpia, pancit, rice and adobo. (Three of us got pork adobo, one had chicken.) The pancit was ok (not salty like some reviewers reported), and the lumpia was crunchy and satisfying. Both adobos were perfect. The meat was moist and the vinegary soy sauce flavor was just right. We couldn't finish our meals (besides, we needed a little room for dessert). So, we brought home leftovers and shared a bowl of Halo Halo. I love the mixture of flavors and textures, the sweets, the beans, and the cool shaved ice. We got 2 pork and 2 beef empanadas to go (for dinner). We were surprised at our bill of more than $160. Our meals were about $19 each. The dessert was about $10. But the empanadas were $11 each for pork and $14 each for the beef. (Say what?) Plus my bag of frozen Ube buns. The empanadas were hefty (about the size of a large hand) and came with an accompanying soy sauce mixture. With a crunchy pastry pocket filled with meat and cabbage filling, it is big enough for a meal. But we didn't care for the extreme greasiness. Would prefer to spend that money on more adobo. I asked one of the ladies what would be the best time to visit the eatery to avoid the crowd and the long wait times. "Monday through Wednesday," she said. "We are always busy the rest of the week." The food is worth five stars. But combined with the slow and disorganized service, sadly I could only give it four stars.

It smelled so, so good. I had called and the guy said they were not busy. We walk in and the lady asked if we had a reservation. Wish he would have mentioned that but anyway, we were sat right away. Our server took quite a while to come over. When she did, she was very nice. We started with Kirin beers that were ice cold. He ordered some fancy eel roll. I had a piece but I am not a fan of eel. It did seem well put together. My JB roll was the best one I ever had. Truly delicious and fresh. We also ordered Mongolian beef. This was really delicious and not overly salted. I was surprised the portion wasn't bigger for a $25 price. Still, very tasty. The side dish of brown rice came about 10 minutes after the dish arrived. This was a bit annoying. We ordered the fried rice with chicken and shrimp later on. When it arrived, I thought it didn't look great. That all changed when I tasted it. The flavors here for the hot food items are very authentic. This dish doesn't seem to photograph well either but let me tell you, it is awesome! There are big tasty shrimps in there, maybe 6 of them. They don't even really show up here. The chicken is also fantastic. This is an excellent restaurant I want to go back to soon.

I came here with some friends and we had the opportunity to stay and order different dishes all Of which came freshly Prepared by the owner/chef who personally Stopped by the table several times to make sure everything was going well. The service was super cordial and they truly made us feel at home. The restaurant itself occupies 2 shops in the strip mall, one side holds the kitchen and the takeout area, and the other side has the smallish dining area. I must say that they keep the temperature warm... I am always cold in restaurants and I was not cold here- and the kitchen side was definitely hot. As far as the food: everything is cooked to order, so do expect a delay in service. One side of the table was eating and finished before the food for the other side of the table came out: we were a table for 8; so expect to stay a while and have plenty of conversation time before your food arrives... but you will see that it is super fresh and delicious. We do recommend it and will Definitely be coming here again!

Tried this place on the way back from Morikami Japanese Gardens to Miami where I live, and was very…read moreglad we did! I am Vietnamese born in the States and grew up Philadelphia and Northern Virginia, both places that have a sizeable Vietnamese population, so I spent most of the last few years wondering where good Vietnamese food is around Miami. Well, a few minutes inside and we already knew this place is legit. It's small but comfortable, the staff is attentive, and the food is authentic. My wife and I started with the banana blossom chicken salad which came with a perfectly seasoned sweet fish sauce (in case you're wondering, banana blossom is not sweet or fruity but has a slightly floral slightly earthy flavor like a mild artichoke). I got the Com Ga Ninh Kieu, which is similar to a Hainan chicken if you're familiar with that - yellow poached chicken is served with rice thats cooked wiht the chicken juices and broth, topped with crispy fried onions (or shallots, I forgot) and a side of sweet ginger-y fish sauce; the meat was juicy but still packed with flavor. My wife got the chicken pho, which came with the same juicy and simple but tasty chicken, and a broth that wasn't too salty but still packed with chicken flavor. The food was all delicious and reminded me of the same no-frills tasty cooking that my family grew up with in Philadelphia; even the veggies on the side were legit. To my surprise after reading online, the owners actually immigrated to Philadelphia before eventually relocating to Florida! My only wish is that this place was closer to downtown Miami so I could come try the rest of the menu.
