I had a great dinner experience here last night with my partner. We love love love the honey paw! For starters, it's a great location. Close to more bars for extra drinks, easy to run into other friends. Also, it's a beautiful spot with outdoor seating in the warmer months. We opted to sit outside and enjoyed khao soi, katsu pork sandwich, and the honey soft serve. The portions are generous, as we were able to share and have leftovers. Each plate had so many great textures and flavors. We did experience a long wait between ordering, getting food, and receiving the check. It was a busy summer night so I wasn't upset, but do not plan on having a quick meal here. Get cozy, get an extra drinks and enjoy your time here. Apologies, but phone did not eat first this time-no pics! read more

Good meal, prices definitely on the high side. Vibe: really cohesive, cool, themed decor. Large shared table in the middle flanked by bar seating. Service: Great Food: We started off with soft serve and the seasonal earl gray outshined the house honey. The earl gray had a great flavor topped with an excellent syrup while the honey was mild and the chocolate shell didn't add anything, although the 'honeycomb' bits were delic. Crispy eggplant special - good, very small portion Pork katsu sandwich - pretty solid, interesting pickle Pad mee korat - good, small portion Value: Aside from the soft serve, the portions were very small for ~$17 price point, and the food was good but aside from the earl gray soft serve, didn't amaze to the point of paying a higher price point. Overall I did like this meal but portions were small for prices. I hope they keep the earl gray soft serve around! read more

Earl grey ice cream - delicious. Perfect. Amazing texture and a generous portion Honeycomb icecream - I liked the honey comb chunks and the chocolate topping with flaky sea salt. The ice cream itself wasn't anything particularly tasty flavor wise. Texture was excellent tho. Fried eggplant - perfect crispy outside chewy inside texture. Sauce is very citrus. I enjoyed this but wasn't blown away by it. Pork katsu sando - thick. Wasn't super into the Kimchi, it overpowered the flavors in the sando but everything else was very good on its own. Really like the bread they use. PAD MEE KORAT - this was my fav. The meat is so tender and flavorful. Everything in this dish is so tasty. Overall flavors are interesting and tasty read more

Such a great Asian fusion restaurant! Bluefin tuna was so fresh and flavourful! Lobster toast was tasty as well with the fish sauce. I definitely liked the appetizers more than the entrees, but the entrees were still tasty. A bit smaller than we were expecting though, after it took quite some time to get them. I also enjoyed my honey soft serve, but can be very sticky with the honey comb. Overall a great restaurant to try out with friendly staff. We were able to be seated right away as two people, but it may take longer with a bigger party it seems. There is also only one bathroom. read more

This is the best tuna tartare I've ever had! It tasted so fresh and light. The seasoning on it was amazing, and I like how it came with fresh vegetable options instead of your standard crackers or bread. The lobster toast was also really good and I love the fish sauce it came with! For entrees we got the mee goreng and khao soi. The mee goreng was good, however there was a crab shell that almost chipped my tooth... I really liked the khao soi's soup, lamb, and vegetables. For dessert, we got both the honey and strawberry soft serve which is a generous portion and lots of toppings. Service was good, but it did take a bit for the food to come out. No surprise though since they're busy. There is a good amount of seating inside and outside. We got seated right away doing a walk in. read more

An interesting and unique place. They put a twist on all the dishes you may be familiar with. We got the fried bread for our toddler and ask ti put the seasoning on the side, the bread is very taste with the flavored butter and the spice. Our toddler enjoyed the bread on its own too. They have high chair and a changing table in the bathroom. The lobster tom kha is great, flavorful soup with squared noddles pieces. The pork katsu sandwish is wonderful too, with lots of kimchi. The only dish we didn't enjoy as much is the fried wings, it's too dry and the sauce is not to my like. Felt like putting caramel on the wing, and it's weird to me. Otherwise, I'd give it a 5-star. But overall, still an excellent place to go to, and I'd recommend it for sure. read more

This. Is. It. Seriously, do not pass go. No notes. If you want to take a journey into tantalizing tastebud adventures you must make it a point to get here. Super funky vibes. There's records being thrown down, cool lighting, nice decor and even super friendly folks. The employees here are beyond nice and welcoming. Like they know what they are doing here and they are offering you an experience that is fun and funky. We started off with two drinks. One was called a salad of some sort (sorry, blacked out) and it was delicious. The other was just as good. Ordered the eggplant app - do not leave without this. Absolutely amazing. For food, we ordered a rice bowl with pork sausage and a noodle bowl (with lobster and clams). Don't remember the names. Both were absolutely fantastic. The flavor profiles are just incredible. The rice bowl had so many things happening. Just terrific. The noodle bowl has a broth that you would drink daily. There wasn't one thing that could have made these dishes any better. Do not leave without dessert. Read that again!!! Get the honey sundae. This is what dreams are made of. You will question reality. No matter how stuffed you think you are, order this. This place is just full of magic and wizardry. Like seriously. read more

Why we waited so long...from the smiling host to a thoughtful server we enjoyed our first visit. The wings were great and we tried one of the spring specials & moo shu pork. Every bite was unquestionably flavorful! The crispy eggplant was delicious, from the crunchy outside to the buttery inside! Pork dish was loaded with layered of flavor and the pancakes were simply the best. We loved our window seat and the music was good but not overwhelming! Adding this to the regular rotation! Our sever was a delight and even added a sample of the Earl Gray ice cream to our dessert order. read more

10/10 this was our fav meal in all of Portland!! Be adventuresome and try the Asian noodle dishes and enjoy! Packed with flavor in every bite. The pork and crab dish with sambal was my winner, but everything was great. Both of the soft serves were amazing as well! EAT HERE! read more

I have to admit that I have always wrote off The Honey Paw. I feel bad admitting this, but there's so many places in Portland and the one time I had been in there before for a cocktail and desert I wasn't impressed. We went in last night with a large group - I started the night a bit skeptical (kind of forcing my mind to be open because people in the group were saying good things)! The restaurant was lively and the staff were friendly, throughout. As the food began to come out, I could feel myself converting into a Honeypaw fan... The starters ordered and shared by the group were all very flavorful. The range of flavors was making me more and more intrigued with every new starter dish. When we got our "entrees", I fully converted!! The rare beef salad was one of the more intriguing dishes I've had in a while and reminded me of one of my favorite dishes from my favorite restaurant. The Khao Soi was also a great choice, the broth carried an amazing flavor through every bite - I want to try other things on the menu but I will have a hard time not ordering this again upon my next trip! My one complaint was that the bar seemed to be two steps behind all night. I really enjoyed my first cocktail (it took forever to get to me but was delicious) and I wanted to try a second one.... Sadly the second one that I ordered never arrived. read more

3.5 stars but rounding up to 4. Got really lucky to make a last minute reservation for 2, a day in advance. As a local I tend to avoid places that are difficult to get into, but made an exception for an out of town guest. The long and the short of it is, this place has a really incredible, flavorful, unique and creative menu. The space leaves something to be desired. If you're there in late afternoon or early evening, the sun beats in and if you're sitting in the wrong spot, it can be really annoying to sit in full sun. I understand it's a really small space which they're making the most of, but I hope they one day move to a better space because the food is great. The space is either exclusively or almost exclusively, a communal table, a bar, and bar style seats along the window looking out side by side, or outside dining. I wouldn't come here for a date but my husband and I will maybe consider coming for a lunch and hope to have one of the better seats in the house. All of our food was delicious, the seasonal strawberry soft serve was particularly unique and interesting. Maybe take out is the move for me personally from Honey Paw. The staff was also very friendly and kind. read more

Went to the Honey Paw at the end of March. A unique menu of traditional asian noodle dishes with an american flare. I had a spicy noodle dish with braised beef and cabbage, which I would recommend. For dessert I had their honey soft serve ice cream with a chocolate shell. Worth a try. The restaurant is honey themed, with yellow walls, an aesthetically pleasing space and bar, along with bear references. The bear in search of honey. Would be good for a date night. The waitress was friendly. read more

Vegans: don't sleep on The Honey Paw! They have an impressive amount of options/are willing to make something for you/their menu is super clearly labeled. The staff (and bartenders!) are exceptional at making recommendations; they're interactive, patient, and accommodating. The menu changes, so heads-up there. I've now tried just about everything that is/can be vegan. Some notes... + Wheat Berry/Winter Salad (depending on the season, it's some variation of greens, grains, roasted fruit and squash, etc): I am usually underwhelmed by salads at restaurants, but this is always fantastic. Refreshing, light, bright, and just the right amount of filling. + Farm Root Vegetables/Beets + Carrots (again depending on the season it's some variation of roasted beets and carrots, lime leaf zhoug, coconut cauliflower puree, cilantro, cashews): genuinely one of my favorite dishes in Portland. It's tremendously satisfying and both the flavors and textures are well balanced; somehow it fits both the hot and cold weather. I crave this. I come back for this. - The Mapo Doufu (jasmine rice, local Heiwa tofu, fermented black bean, spicy Szechuan chili, peanuts): I had avoided this because there were warning labels about how spicy it was on their menu, their website, even their staff would make sure to reiterate how hot it was. Yelp named it one of the top spiciest dishes in the US. They must have changed the recipe recently though, because a) it no longer has any warnings about being spicy, b) it's not really spicy, c) my dish was mostly flavored onions on too much rice (see the pics). I'd skip this now; I'm sorry it's not the old version (and based on other people's pics prior to this year, it looked really good!). - The last time I was here they let me know their slushie machine broke and they had no plans on getting it fixed/getting a new one. Such a bummer; these drinks in every flavor were SO GOOD. However... + The regular cocktails are so good! I don't personally like the communal table (even though they can accommodate groups, the table is so big it's awkward to hand dishes to one another/you won't be able to hear one another). The Honey Paw is best if you can snag a seat at the bar or at the enormous floor to ceiling windows solo or with one other person! read more

After hearing rave reviews, we were excited to check this local favorite out. We came as a group of 5 for Saturday lunch/brunch. Reservations highly advised! Service was warm, welcoming and attentive from start to finish and incredibly accommodating of part of our party arriving late. We were seated at the end of the large communal table, making for a cozy, family style atmosphere. Every dish was a flavor bomb with beautiful, artistic plating. As a vegetarian, I found ample options and the team went so far as to modify the Nam Khao for me (sub'd tofu). The flavor and textural variety made for an exciting meal full of discovery. The shishitos with the rice puff everything mix might have been the standout of the meal though, if we're not including the highly praised Honey soft serve which is an absolute must. We will definitely be back! read more

10/10 no doubt! One of the best Asian fusion/thai restaurants I've been to in the northeast! Lindsay was our wonderful server, so friendly, and gave us great recommendations. We were also able to walk in during the happy hour (3-5pm Monday through Friday) and was able to get apps at a reduced price. For food, we ordered: Khao soi, mee goreng, and lobster tom Khao. They were all exploding with flavors! For drinks, I ordered the housemade ginger kombucha with a kick of cayenne pepper. For apps, we did happy hour menu items with fried chicken wings and scallion pancake. The wings were phenomenal, covered a honey butter glaze and fried to perfection. Ambience is fun, friendly, and energetic. It is casual and is great for a group of friends or a date! read more

The food and service were both fantastic here! They were able to make a last minute reservation for 7 people and they were kind enough to let us stay an hour after closing so our meal wouldn't be rushed. The food was insanely good, unlike anything I've ever eaten. We raved about the food all night and the favorite ended up being the mee goreng and honey soft serve. We don't live in state but when we visit this will always be a stop! read more

This is a very hip restaurant with a fun, fresh vibe. Perhaps because of the large family-style dining table in the middle of the dining room. The food here is unexpectedly delicious! Mainly because I do not know what half of the ingredients are (you can ask for clarification of course) but they all work together so the chef clearly knows what they are doing! The pork katsu sandwich was so huge and so delicious I might get it again. The salads were fabulous and the fried bread was a huge hit with the table. The cocktail menu is playful and offers nonalcoholic alternatives. Give this spot a try next time you're in the mood for Asian fusion and want to mix it up. read more

LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! I'm so glad I found it on the map while looking for places to eat. I noticed Portland has a good amount of Asian food and Asian fusion places. This restaurant is Thai fusion. We arrived just before opening so we were the first ones in. We sat at a bar seating right in front of the window. I think that was strategic because several people walking on the street looked in and saw people inside eatings with big smiles on their faces. How could they not want to come in? I started with the lobster toast. It comes with 3 pieces. The photo attached only has 2 because i already ate one. But it's a scallop and lobster mousse sandwiched between toasted bread in a wonderful fusion of flavor. Scallop and lobster are more delicate meats but together in the mousse you just get this elegant richness that's not overpowering. It also comes with a tarragon aioli which cuts through the richness. For every lobster toast bought, they donate to stop AAPI (Asian American & Pacific Islander) hate, which in this current climate, is more important than ever. For my main, I got the Kimchii Jjigae. I looked through the over 1000 photos of this place and saw not one photo of Kimchii Jjigae. I saw tons of photos of all the other noodle dishes though. It's a spicy noodle soup that comes with turmeric rice noodles, mussels, kimchi, wood ear, and gochujang pork sausage. I loved the spicy flavor from the broth plus the freshness of the mussels. The gochujang flavor of the pork sausage I think gets a little lost because of the kimchi. But everything was delicious. They even give you these special chopsticks with extra traction to eat the noodles because they tend to be slippery. My husband got the pad mee korat, which reminds me of pad see ew, except he said it was spicy. Although when I tried it, it wasn't that spicy. He just has no spice tolerance. He still at the whole thing and liked it. Overall, a wonderful meal and if i was ever passing through Portland, I'd stop at this place specifically just to eat their noodles. read more

We went on a Saturday night and were seated in about 20m without a reservation. Fun little area with a few other eateries and bars nearby! My favorites were the wings (definitely on the sweeter side/coconut-y) and the rare beef salad. My friend really enjoyed the Khao Saoi. The Mee Goreng was decent too. read more

Coconut wings were delicious but there was a hair on my plate and that's just "no". No compensation or apology. The beer was refreshing and fabulous if you like pilsner. read more

The Honey Paw - Asian Fusion Near Me - Portland, Maine

Buckle up friends.. This place wowed me and that is saying a lot coming from me. The food is asian fusion. The dish I got was called Mee Goreng and man, I wish I were eating it right now. So much flavor packed into every bite. There was a generous amount of smoked pork, stir-fried finished to get some wonderfully caramelized bits all spread throughout a pile of glossy, slightly chewy, amazing noodles. The noodles, which I'm also hard to impress with, were perfect- finished to a golden amber hue, they could stand up on their own but served as the perfect vehicle for the pork, crab, bok choy and ginger crab sambal. From start to finish, exceptional. I also had the pleasure of trying the Khao Soi and boy, its hard to say which I liked more. If you're in a more brothy mood, go with this- the lamb pairs so well with the coconut curry and the lime helps cut through the richness of it all. I was probably more impressed with the flavors on this one, but I wasn't in a soup mood- so the stir fry is what I went with. Don't pass up the Honey Soft serve. Its not merely a novelty, its delicious and I would go back to get it again- its a perfect cap to a meal. The ice cream is honey flavored itself, the chocolate encasing the super creamy soft-serve is wonderful on its own and the "Honeycomb" pieces help tie the whole thing together. Its fun, its fresh and its something you don't want to miss. I talked in length about the food but the space is great too. Very communal feel to it- we sat a the windows looking out into the city of Portland. There are plenty of seats and a very large shared table in the center of the restaurant. Very special place, fantastic staff and my favorite food from our Portland trip. Will absolutely be back. read more

Had a great dinner at the Honey Paw. Our server was super friendly and although she didn't catch that we wanted to put an order of wings in, she made up for it with comping one of our drinks. The food was amazing, had both a fusion vibe and also seemed super authentic. The crispy wings were to die for once they did arrive, like nothing I'd ever tasted before. Really nice atmosphere, gorgeous flower arrangements and dried flower decor. read more

We tried the honey paw from local recommendations. This place was an Asian jam, packed restaurant with Asian inspired dishes. I would say try it out. If you wanna try something different from your local gems I think when we tried a lot of the dishes, we were surprised by how interesting the flavors were they were definitely not the flavors that I was looking for, but I would say I was still able to eat it, and I was surprised by the flavor that they were able to choose. The ambulance is definitely cute. A nice spot to come with your friends or a date Pricing wise. I think it is on the higher end. Good customer service. read more

The Khao Soi was absolutely amazing and deserves 5 stars on its own. The Ramen fell flat and was disappointing, and the texture of the chicken was very weird and unappealing, we didn't finish the dish. To top the night off, the staff locked the bathroom because it was after closing time so I couldn't use the restroom on the way out, and there were many more diners still inside when we left. Disappointed since we heard great things (the Khao Soi lives up to their reputation though!) read more

I came here with a group of 10 friends and we were seated at the communal table in the center which was the perfect arrangement for all of us. We were able to have conversations with whoever was sitting next to us as well as anyone sitting across the table without having to shout in order to have a convo. I ordered the Fried Wings appetizer and I'm still thinking about them as I write this. The perfect seasoning (made with coconut, smoked butter, chili, and lime leaf), an amazing crunchy skin, and the order came with 9 wings which was plenty for one person! Every single one of us was super satisfied with our meals, and the service was fantastic. It's easy to either screw up an order or to take a very long time if you're serving a group of 11, but our waitress was ON IT and we had no problems all around. Such a cute and inviting space, and compliments to the Chef on your delicious eats! read more

The server from Duckfat recommended this place during lunch so we had to try it for dinner. I had the salad and asked for the dressing on the side bc it's spicy. I not a hug fan of spicy so it was very nice to add the right amount while I ate. Very refreshing salad and filling! The kimchi was VERY spicy according to my bf. He had the soup (duck option). It was good but not what I was craving that evening. We tried a beer from the happy hour menu. Red book in the back is the menu. We shared the dessert which was the perfect way to end our experience.

We visited last night for some ice cream after I saw someone on TikTok recommend it. Ice cream was good... but the way we were treated by the host, I'd rather eat anywhere else in town than eat here. We were treated like we were an enormous inconvenience to him. There were over 20 seats unoccupied while we were there. NOT A SINGLE PERSON WAS SITTING AT THE BAR, NOT ONE! He made it seem like the world was going to end that we were going to only eat ice cream... maybe 5 minutes in and out of the building. Our picky daughter did not like it, neither did my wife. I've been in the service industry for 31 years. I cannot imagine treating someone the was we were back here in Boston! I might expect this from a pretentious restaurant back home, but certainly not from some random establishment in one of the best foodie cities we frequent. I'd give you zero stars if I could. read more

My personal favorite is the apple yuzu mocktail. The food was wonderful, pretty minimal food menu but everything on it is really good. DO NOT SKIP the honey soft serve it's a really cute sweet treat to end the night. Street parking outside of location, no parking lot. The service was very friendly from bar staff, we went on a slow day. Bathrooms were cute also. It was pretty expensive honestly for what we got but that's to be expected of kinda trendy fusion spots in this part of town. I would return! read more

The Honey Paw - Asian Fusion Near Me - Portland, Maine

Just before noon on a Sunday was a perfect time to go to The Honey Paw, as they open at 11 and there were only a couple of other parties seated. The Honey Paw is vegetarian/vegan friendly, however, many items (all of the noodle dishes for instance) are not, and can not be made vegetarian. Nor can the Bloody Mary, which has Worcestershire. I had the Mapo Doufu, a rice dish full of fresh ingredients: mushrooms, peanuts, green onion, and tofu. It was quite spicy, as the menu noted. It was a very large portion, enough for lunch and two additional servings. With one exception, the service was attentive: my friend's entree was delivered quite a while before mine, so it made for the awkwardness of me insisting she start and her wanting to wait until mine arrived. Ideally, both entrees would have been delivered together. The star of the show was definitely the signature soft serve honey ice cream, with chocolate shell and honeycomb candy. It was great end to the spicy meal, even on a cold February day. Noteworthy: have a backup plan if you're trying to go for dinner. It can be especially tricky to get a table for two. The Honey Paw is a recent James Beard Award winner, a small space, and they don't take reservations for parties less than four, so I recommend being patient, or going for lunch like we did. read more

This is my second time checking out The Honey Paw, had to stop over to come check out the hot new lobster roll! I stopped in around 3pm so dinner services really haven't started yet, food services were open! The host was incredibly kinda / full of answers for all my questions! We talked about all the seasonal food options they do to influence seasonal vegetables. As a farmer I always enjoy hearing restaurants using local resources for food influence during the seasons. The ambience is very clean up to date with trend, I love the record tables behind the host stand for music, the old restaurant menus on the walls and the floral decor on the tables and cool funky lights! Now for the lobster roll! This is now my FAVORITE lobster roll I have had since living in maine, I don't know if they are soaking the lobster meat in a citrus brine because the meat was so tender and fresh with a lovely hint of citrus and little heat from the peppers it was an amazing combination complimented by the traditional butter bun which I believe was a milk or bao bun, I would say it is about 2-3 ounces of meat in the roll and very reasonably priced at $35!! I will be returning for a traditional dining in to try other dishes and follow up with a continued review! Molly one of the employees gave me two of there in house ice cream dishes which was incredibly nice and they were delicious as well! So I will be sure to take pictures and review the deserts next visit, big thank you to Molly that was very kind. From the experiences I have had I would highly recommend checking out The Honey Paw for a lunch or dinner meal! Thanks for reading, The Dish read more

The Wee Gorbeng and Pad Wee Korat was fantastic. The pork and beef was seared, and slow cooked to perfection. Both dishes were loved by the whole family. Well worth the price. The service was prompt and informed. I will let you know they do not hold food to serve the whole table at once, but serve it as soon as it is finished. The ambiance is cute and friendly. Well worth the stop!!! Thank you for the great evening. read more

Service is outstanding. Portions are on the large side. Cool vibe inside the restaurant. Food is good too.

The food at Honey Paw is absolutely extraordinary. Everything from the apps to salads to entrees was very different from what I have experienced at other restaurants and SO delicious. For example the wings appetizer had the most amazing sesame sauce flavors. The beet appetizer was served over a yogurt sauce that was perfect. The short rib entree had the most amazing rich and deep flavors. The pork sausage and cabbage was light and had a spicy sauce that I cannot begin to describe. Service was very good. We loved the music they were playing. The only downside was that most of the seating is bar style or at a giant communal table, making it harder to have a conversation for groups of people. read more

I'll be dreaming of this soft serve! So creamy, with the perfect level of sweetness. The magic chocolate shell is nostalgic and reminds me of childhood eating ice cream sundays at home. The real star of the soft serve is the honeycomb topping. It has a hard crunchy exterior with a dry crunchy comb that melts in your mouth. The saltiness of the topping enhances the sweetness of the soft serve. I did take out soft serve which was fast. All street parking read more

We had a lovely dinner at Honey Paw this week. We ventured out in the blizzard and found this space glowing with warmth before we even entered the dining room. Our server was warm and welcoming and you could tell she was proud of the restaurant, to the extent that it felt like she was an owner. We ordered a couple of dishes: The Shrimp and Pork Wontons in a lemongrass broth Charred Gai Lan - Chinese Brocoli Nam Khao - Thai Rice Salad Rare Beef Salad Khao Soi - Thai traditional noodle dish with smoked lamb Every dish was inventive and beautifully executed with big flavors. The Honey Soft Serve was a great ending to a perfect meal. Can't wait to return and share it with friends and family! read more

Stopped by on a weekday around 2pm. It wasn't crowded and the staff were friendly. The lobster toast was well balanced and fresh, with good texture from the crispy toast and crunchy vegetables. The red pepper adds noticeable heat, along with a nice touch of sweetness and tang. The crispy eggplant with rice was a highlight texture-wise--crispy and chewy outside, soft inside. The sauce leans sweet and tangy from the General Tso's sauce and acidic pickled peppers. The dish is also fairly spicy, so it may be worth asking for less heat if you prefer milder dishes. The mee goreng was flavorful and filling, spicy but very manageable. The proportion of sambal was a bit heavy, so sauce on the side could help balance the strong flavor. The khao soi had a very good curry base, though the lamb flavor was quite strong and slightly overshadowed the curry. As for drinks, the Apple of My Eye mocktail was good, though ginger-forward. Finished with the honey soft serve, which was excellent--crunchy honeycomb, a light chocolate shell, sea salt, and a honey soft serve that wasn't overly sweet. Overall, a pleasant meal with bold flavors in a relaxed setting. read more

FRIED WINGS - $16 Contains: fish sauce, dairy, gluten, allium With: coconut, smoked butter, chili, lime leaf Ratings: 8/10 (boyfriend) | 7/10 (me) The wings were decent but lacked acidity to balance the richness. Flavor-wise, they were fine, but at $16, they felt overpriced for what you get. MAZEMEN RAMEN - $28 Contains: gluten, soy, allium, sesame, fin fish, egg With: wheat noodle, bluefin tataki, mushroom conserva, snap peas, tofu, furikake, soy egg Rated 10/10 by my boyfriend he really enjoyed it. I did like the flavor, especially the lightly seared bluefin, but wish it had been clearer that this is a cold dish. That detail wasn't noted on the menu, and if I had ordered it expecting hot ramen, I would've been disappointed. KHAO SOI - $25 Contains: shellfish, fin fish, egg, gluten, allium (can be made gluten/egg free) With: egg noodle, smoked lamb, coconut curry, mustard greens, jalapeño, lime, crispy noodles A strong 8.5/10. The lamb was tender and flavorful, but the curry lacked heat despite the chili oil and jalapeños. Extra lime helped brighten it, though the noodles were slightly overcooked. Service & Atmosphere Quoted wait time was 10-20 minutes, but it ended up being closer to 30 not terrible for a Saturday night. The space is small and quite loud, with only one restroom stall. It also took quite some time to get our check so it seems they are understaffed or not paying full attention as it was quite clear. We were ready to check out. Overall The food was good but overpriced. The 5% surcharge added to every bill feels tacky, especially given the already high prices and location. While I understand the intent to support staff wages, it puts the burden on the diner and likely cuts into tipping. read more
