    Our first time.. Took us a sec to figure it out. Come with time so you can go through twice. Great service though & very nice manager checked on us a couple of times. Will be back.

    Try Cayrum, its a dark rum aged 3 years and then infused with all natural ginger and honey. Its great as a chilled shot, on the rocks, ginger ale/beer, juices or Red Bull. Theres nothing like it! Read more

    If you go to the bathroom to wash your hands please note that the water pressure in the sink is similar to a freshly opened fire hydrant. Please bring your rain gear and sandbags.

    My first plate was delicious! Second plate I messed up but the roti bread that I ordered was soooo on point!

    A self-serve stir-fry bar where you build your own noodle bowls, flavor can be a little lacking if you don't know exactly what you're doing.

    Chow Baby is always good but this one on Ponce doesn't give you as many food options and sauce varieties as the one on Howell Mill gives... Still good though!

    Combination of the sweet chili and coconut curry makes for a unique sweet and hot taste.

    Good food, but going at 6:30p with kids wasn't the best decision. Things were pretty slow, but I think it would be better at an off time with little ones.

    Not true, you don't HAVE to valet, you can self-park on the street/alley behind. However, I do agree it is annoying to think you have to valet your car for this place...get over yourselves chow baby!

    I love the food and service at Chow Baby's. But I must recommend the Howell Mill location.

    Not the chow baby of old! Wait staff is still bad, not rude but definitely not welcoming. Food is good but the upkeep around the buffet line is fear inducing with the stains and raw meat everywhere.

    My margarita but that was before I knew the small Collins cup was my $8 drink. The food is so overrated....the trivia is boring...try bingo. Nothing Asian about this eatery, much more like Hawaiian.

    Enjoy the soulful house tunes of DJ Ausar on Friday and Saturday nights. Plus karaoke starts late Friday after the DJ's set.

    If you put the black stirrer in your bowl, they'll fill it with yummy coconut soup!

    Be prepared to spend your entire night here, cause you'll be forever waiting on everything from getting a table to getting your food.

    Service at this location is very odd. Server was friendly, bartender was slow, & rude. He intentionally took his time making drink & was condescending @ the same time. Food GREAT! bring tip for valet!

    If you hate valet like I do, opt to park on a side street and walk over. The valet line when leaving can be quite long and slow.

    I will never come here again, I sat at the bar almost 30 minutes without a menu or assistance! The employees don't communicate with each other, host told us to sit at the bar

    The only reason the service is bad is because they really aren't needed. Oh and really go light on the dry seasonings, they can get pretty strong!

    They charge $5 to get a to-go box, which I found odd because what else are they going to do with leftover food besides throw it out?

    They have Cayrum here and it pairs perfectly with the cuisine.

    Be prepared to surrender your car... Valet parking is mandatory. Seems odd for a buffet style eatery.
