First time customer and now a repeat! Small restaurant, clean and decorated nicely. Lionel is so friendly and welcoming. I ordered the Lunch Special which comes with an appetizer and drink. I went with the NanJee Noodle Salad, which they were able to make vegetarian. It was delicious, just spicy enough and the bites of cilantro took it to another level. The samosas were cooked perfectly and the spicy sauce was a wonderful addition. Can't wait to try the other items!
Absolutely loved my experience going here. Really chill atmosphere and the owner is a great guy. It was my first time here and he was so friendly with introducing me to the cuisine. All the food was delicious (fried tofu, seejet noodles (roast duck with garlic)) and I'll definitely come back to try the other dishes.
We've eaten in twice with different guests and it's been unanimous, the food is good! The owners run a relaxed place. The chef/owner and self described dish washer seated us both times. His daughter and self described indentured servant served us cheerfully. We appreciate that the cuisine is distinctively different - it's not Chinese, Thai, South Indian, Malaysian. Since it's different, just experiment The tea salad is a crunchy delight. The pork curry isn't a "curry" but braised chunks in a dry sauce. The 8 entrees we've tried have all been different.
What a delightful culinary experience! The flavors of our choices were delicately balanced enhancing the essence of each ingredient. Mastery! Highly recommended, our hosts are as warm & inviting as their food. You'll feel like you're in your favorite neighbor's kitchen.
Amazing food and even better hospitality. Thank you for such a delicious and authentic flavor fest. Must have the green tea leaf salad! The coconut rice....has actual coconut pieces in it. So incredible. Will visit again to try more of the menu.
