Cheryl Hawley: The Pho soup & Bbq Spareribs are superb!

Beverly Ho: Xiao long bao(soup dumplings) was good but pricey @ $12. Shrimp dumplings, BBQ pork buns were yummy!
Paul Cunningham: Ask for what you want, don't just take what comes by. Try the house special dumplings with soup in them. The BBQ pork is excellent in buns or rice wraps. Have fun, try stuff, it's all good
Jake Levine: Great quick bite for a weekday lunch. Pricey, so check the menu before you order. Shanghai soup dumplings and BBQ pork buns are great.

Jessica Galiana: Great service. Delicious food. Everything was good: Bourbon oysters, gumbo, risotto, sliders pulled pork, fries... #great #foodie
Maria Riabtchenko: Definitely get chipotle bbq oysters, clam chowder (or any seafood stews), fresh oysters, grilled scallops/razor clams. Don’t order the uni chowder, doesn’t taste like uni at all, just cream.
Greg Einfrank: Bourbon Chipotle BBQ oysters are amazing. The chowder is really special, unlike any chowder I've ever had.

Ryan: 2 Tacos for $5. Try one Korean short rib and one chicken to get the best of both worlds.
Grant Anderson: Try the BBQ Chicken Sando KFC style, or the Gamja fries with short rib.
Juney Ham: Get the garlic chicken omu-rice. Rice was well-seasoned and likely cooked in stock, and the egg crepe was tender, umami-y & topped with both ketchup and a soy-vinegar-like sauce that made it all pop!
