CityRover Media: Check out the gigantic chalkboard menu over the counter, boasting oddly-named sandwiches, like the “Mahatma Gloves”, a crowd favorite filled with curried chicken salad, cashews & lime-mango chutney. Read more.
Kirin K-L: Any of the sandwiches on brioche need to be tasted to be believed, especially the lindas swinging single. Salads are pricey but generally fantastic -try the Curried chicken or grilled chicken salad.
Cat Ang: Amazing bread, sandwiches and baked goods. Try the Counter Choice for breakfast and buy their babka on Sundays - amazingly delicious!

Jonah Jenkins: When ordering tge Chicken Curry special with veg, you can swap for Chicken Tikka Masala.
Tom Manshreck: Curry Special is a bargain. Samosa, curry chicken, naan, and side veggie for $8
Jake Smith: Everything they cook here is very good. I typically go with the Chicken Saag or Chicken Tikka Masala. Be sure to pick up some naan too!
katrina panovich: the tomato & feta egg sandwich. add a side of ham. perfection!
Alexandra Hodgman: SUCH good omelets! Very healthy with interesting flavors!
Jake Smith: They grill their breakfast sandwiches on the flat grill, giving it a grilled-cheese-esque flavor and consistency. All this really means is that the sausage, egg, and cheese is magic.

Zac Chance: Good, well-made Chinese food. Courteous waitstaff and very fast preparation for takeout. Recommend the Yu Hsiang beef, crab rangoon, General Gau's chicken, and egg rolls.
Graham Webster: Take home some frozen pork and leek dumplings to boil up for yourself later. Cheap and hand-made!
Serious Eats: It's all about dumplings here—if you can't get enough at the restaurant, bring a frozen bag of 50 home.
Terence Michale: Off the menu Malaysian items is a must! Spicy Grilled Sting Ray, Kangkung belacan, red curry! You can request halal chicken for some items. Ask the owner.
Dorothy T.: Absolutely get a plate of the Peking ravioli! And the Peking duck. Yum!
Adam Hertz: Try the Pea Tendrils, they're awesome!
