Chuck Hirsch: Excellent grilled pork chop with veggies and an app too for $10!
Stacey Kratz: Go with a group. Order different meals and share family style. You can't go wrong with the chicken mango, chicken curry, or beef basil dishes.
Harry: Most of what we had was really good. Try he Thai 51 dumplings, the Phuket noodles, and the tom yum super bowl!

Ms. Mo: They took out the classic dishes like chicken meatballs, grilled pork cheeks. No more charcoal grill. Food not as good as before.
Erica Choi: Sautéed noodles is pretty amazing. Crispy noodles due to the hot pot it's cooked in and just really delicious seasoning. Plum wine with hints of earl gray was also incredibly memorable.
Serious Eats: Come here for excellent Japanese cuisine, great desserts (try the Matcha Tiramisu!), and a sizable sake menu.
