    Popcorn Crispy Chicken Bites
    Khanh P.

    Went here for lunch and honestly didn't expect too much from the Pad Thai since it's more of a fusion spot. But it turned out surprisingly decent! The portion was just right, and I liked how the noodles and toppings were balanced instead of being overloaded with carbs. Seasoning was on point too. Really enjoyed it! The popcorn chicken is a must try, super crispy and flavorful without being too salty (which happens a lot elsewhere). I'd definitely order both dishes again.

    House Pho
    Gionne S.

    I went here with a few friends post run club. Had the house special pho and tasted the popcorn chicken. The pho was great and had a good and balanced broth along with the combination of meats (meatball, brisket). Bonus points for having cool tables with outlets. Might be a cool idea do some work here in the future.

    Rotisserie chicken
    Jonathan S.

    Do not try the rotisserie chicken. I might have to call out of work tomorrow now. I took 2 bites of the chicken and my stomach started feeling a little weird. I'm giving them 2 stars because maybe the chicken could've been bad before it even made it to them, but even then the flavor of the chicken was awful. I won't be back again, and I definitely can't recommend it.

    rotisserie chicken + fountain drink (bottomless)
    Keeny Q.

    They have pretty good food here. Portions could be bigger but not a big deal. All their plate orders are around $17-$22

    Randomly went to this place and honestly didn't expect much, but wow the popcorn chicken was crazy good. Super crispy but not dry at all, and that flour they use got so much flavor like I don't even know how to explain it, just really good. The noodles were tasty and not dry at all, with tender meat, and the Pad Thai had a nice balance of flavor. The server was super nice and helpful, made the whole thing even better. Didn't plan to eat here but glad we did.

    Rotisserie chicken with garlic noodles
    Deborah W.

    Came by to pick up a quick lunch and got: 1. Rotisserie chicken with garlic noodles: Don't get the rotisserie chicken; it was super bland. The garlic noodles were subpar and overcooked. 2. Popcorn chicken: The popcorn chicken was seasoned well, but honestly, at this point, I've had better. Overall, I'd skip and go elsewhere.

    The food here tasted amazing! Everything is very well-seasoned. I tried their House Combo Pho and Fillet Mignon & Jasmine Rice plate because I heard those were the popular dishes there. Now I understand why those two dishes are on top of the list now. The portion size was descent, very nicely plated too. I love their Pho broth too, very aromatic and tasty. Not forget to mention the ambiance here. Very suitable for casual dining with friends, family, co-workers, cute dating spot, or study place since they have warm lighting and plenty of outlets here. Highly recommended!!!

    Grilled Pork Spring Rolls
    Heather D.

    I randomly ended up here after seeing it nearby to where I was at. I ordered food to go, which seemed to take a really long time but the food was super good. I ordered a plate with filet and garlic noodles. I told my friend I think that they were the best garlic noodles I've ever had! They were cooked perfectly as was the filet. I ordered the pork spring rolls which were pretty good. I didn't order a beverage but the milk teas are all sounded really good. I'd recommend giving this place a try!

    Pad Thai with Beef

    Stopped by on a very sunny day. The ambiance is very pleasing and the service is top notch. I love their Pad Thai, it hits home. I also tried Garlic Noodles and a refreshing salad to balance the flavor out but overall, I love the experience and would like to come back to try other items on the menu! Highly recommended! (Their popcorn chicken is something else, very addicting to eat).

    Garlic noodles with filet mignon cubes & popcorn chicken in the back
    Ryoung K.

    The food was decent! Garlic noodles were good. We got the filet mignon cubes & the crispy chicken for the protein but I personally liked the crispy chicken more. The popcorn chicken was okay, wasn't as crispy as we would have liked. The food was served to us and it came out pretty quickly. Service was decent, as well. Ambiance wise, plenty of seats inside. We went on a Wednesday evening and it was just us two and one more person inside. Price is decent. There's plenty of parking because it's inside a structure with other stores nearby, like 85 degrees.

    Are you guys doing dine in?

    Is brown rice an option for any rice dish?

    We unfortunately do not offer brown rice anymore, sorry for the inconvenience.

    Does you guys still have Happy Hour?

    no not at this time

    Why are the prices for takeout on yelp (especially the filet mignon plate) more expensive than the ones in the photos?

    Yes so we did have a price change and we need to update our menus in store. Sorry for the inconvenience

    Do you have MSG in your PHO?

    My guess is no but I don't ever order PHO. I try to limit salt in my diet.

We ordered the Papaya Salad, Garlic Chicken Rolls and their Beef Jerky Special. We had a lovely conversation with the owner and she gave us special instructions on how to eat everything, such as eating the jerky with a small ball of sticky rice and sauce, followed by a mouthful of papaya salad as a palate cleanser--We followed those instructions to a T and it was truly enjoyable! For impressions of each Entree: The Papaya Salad is incredible, we ordered it with a mild spice level sauce. It's light, flavorful and refreshing and serves as a perfect palate cleanser if you order it with another item, but having it on its own is perfectly fine as well. The Garlic Chicken Roll was fantastic, crispy roll and tender chicken on the inside. It came with a sweet dipping sauce that had a flavor we weren't expecting but a nice surprise. The Beef Jerky Special: I absolutely love the idea of the beef jerky with a crispy-charred outer shell. My critique would be to dial back the charred-ness a little bit so that it doesn't dominate the center flavor. It goes perfectly well with the sticky rice and the sauce it comes with is really nice. Really great establishment with great customer service, I look forward to visiting again!
