    This place always has excellent food. The lunch box is exceptional value, and the regular menu is nothing but bangers. What really stands out is the service and staff. Everyone is always super friendly and attentive. I had an experience the other day that blew me away. Our server made a small mistake with our order which caused a minor delay. They went above and beyond to make amends. Truly outstanding stuff. It gave me hope that the classic service industry isn’t dead. They really know how to operate a business and I will forever be a patron. Well done Horang. Well done.
