    Being welcomed by Kim was a pleasure as she was overflowing with an energetic vibe! Jason also took great care of us as he recommended his favorites and shared the history of the restaurant. Having his grandparents photo on the wall watching over him and his family and coworkers is such an honor. Thank you for an amazing experience. This is a must!

    We always go for any celebration, this time for a friends 38th birthday! She loves the menu special with duck for 3 people plus choice an entree and a veg. Plus soup and appetizers the selections haven’t changed much. Which is great has she loves them. We had lamb chops and string beans with minced pork and shrimp rice. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend a reservation as we got there at 5pm and the place was packed by 530pm. Large and small parties plus it’s byob so tip generously
