I can't remember the last review i left.This place rocked me to the core with how impressive and enjoyable it all was.The food was on point. Even things that I usually dont like were so damn good.The service was pleasantly surprising for an Asian restaurant that isn't expensive.The atmosphere was fantastic. Clean and classy with tablecloths and real indoor plants!What a gem! I'll be back!
