I have waited over a year to write a review for South-Ahan. Food was phenomenal when they did a…read moresoft opening in 2023. The taste, the vibes, and the Jeow Bong they put aside with wings and sticky rice was the only menu that made me come back every week in 2023. It reminded of home and it tasted authentic to me. Then, they were out of Jeow Bong at some point. I went and asked every week over couple months. They said they were busy and shorted staff. They didn't have time to make more. I stopped going there. My husband still ordered carry out here and there for himself in this past year. I went back to dine in couple days ago. They changed the menu and Jeow Bong is no longer a part of wings menu, same as sticky rice. It is a completely different menu called "Sticky wings" served with white rice. Does it taste good? Yes! But it is very Americanized Asian food. I totally understand that the restaurant has to survive and adapt to the area. They can't stay authentic or the community would be like "What kind of food is that? It doesn't taste like other American-Asian restaurants that I have had before." I am sad but completely understand. South-Ahan is still the best asian restaurant in Columbia though. The tables are clean and the service is still great. I am happy that people in Columbia love South-Ahan. They were very busy when I was in the restaurant. Ps. The bright side, they have Jeow Bong in a jar for sale now! Whoop whoop! It tastes exactly the same as last year and it is still the best Jeow Bong version that I like the most. If you can't eat spicy food, please don't even try it. Your mouth will feel like it is on fire and it burns for minutes! That burn is lingering. I have warned you!

But no runny nose or worry about what will happen in the bathroom later We also tried the mango sticky rice- lord have mercy! What a perfect dessert. So delectable. So so good.

It still lists for $3.25 on the menu, and they bring out the equivalent of one piece of chopped lettuce in a condiment size bowl! Total rip off! It was already a very small portion, and now, not even enough to wet your whistle! Fulin's should be ashamed to serve the mini cup size and not even lower the price! I will NOT support such a poor move on their part and purchase the salad again, unless they go back to the original size or lower the price a couple of dollars for the amount they served me today! There are similar places around, where I can still pay the same price I used to and get what is actually called a "salad." I refuse to pay for one piece of lettuce, and I question whether it was a whole piece, at that! Plus, they didn't even fill the measly bowl. Wish I could still give a 4 star rating, but quantity has gone down. Some of you may say, it's just a freaking salad. Others that look forward to this being one of their favorite things on the menu, will understand. IYKYK
