Sue Lee: I would be here all the time if I lived nearby. Loved their spicy salmon cup with flax seed rice, but I'll be trying their other dishes next time.
Candice Rivera: The rice cup was delicious and so flavorful!
Ifeoluwa: The rice cups are delicious and great value if you're hungry for more food than a roll. The farmer's bowl (veg) or fisherman's bowl are the bomb if you're looking to spend extra.

Alison Gresham: Loved the Plantain Crusted Chicken with Mango BBQ sauce, steamed yucca and rice & beans! Add the Cholula Hot Sauce for the perfect spicy flavor topping.

Ashley Chen: Live a little and try some fun stuff - sea bream and durian sticky rice. Nobody comes here for pad Thai.
Zucchini Rose: Laab (duck salad), Kao Tod Nam Klook (curry rice), and Kang Kua Supparod (mushroom, pineapple 🍍 curry) all super delicious! Can’t wait to come back!
F. Bastard: I like this place but I can’t help feeling the spice level is turned to 11 as some kind of statement about authenticity. Duck laab inedibly hot. Kao Tod Nam Klook (rice salad) my fave dish.

Ancy: Probably the best Chicken & Rice I've ever had! It has so much flavor!
