Homey but elevated Asian cuisine. Always my go-to place because the food here never fails me. The chicken wings are crispy,... juicy, served with this spicy sauce that I recommend to be put on the side instead of on the wings because it really has akick. The spring rolls are crunchy, not oily at all, the fillings are flavorful with a good dipping sauce as well. The friedbao buns are surprisingly good! It looks heavy and dense on the outside, but the inside is airy, not fatty, well-fried, and themeat filling is super duper good. The Thai tea! The thing I live for! Not too sweet, just enough, literally the best Thai tealooking for a competition. Aside from these dishes I have also had the pasta and the sandwich, both were awesome as well. Thisplace deserves more love! Read more

Amazing fresh food. No wonder this place is always packed with students and togos until the wee hours of the night. I had the... bulgogi steak garlic fries. I don?t know how I ate all of this. It was massive. So delicious. My husband had the highlysuggested garlic noodles. He says it was also delicious. I hope to try their new location off harbor soon too! Read more

*This review is only on the Garlic Chicken Sandwich* Overall I really enjoyed the sandwich, but there were some things I... thought could be improved: The sandwich is grilled chicken with a garlic cream sauce, mushrooms and cilantro. The sauce isincredibly flavorful, and the cilantro cuts through with some freshness. I did think the sandwich overall was a little bit toosalty though, and I?m not sure if I would pay 10 dollars for this sandwich again as well. Read more

We ordered garlic shrimp noodles and it was very delicious. We were there around 9:30pm and they were still open. The green tea... was good but a little sweet. Other than that, the food was delicious and good amount of portions. We like it so much. Read more

IMMA TELL YOU RIGHT NOW, DONT WEAR A WHITE TEE!!! ITS A BLESSING BUT ALSO A CURSE(i wouldn?t even call it a curse because i... wasn?t even mad after looking at the stain(WORTH IT)) So, let me start by saying the Cajun pasta was naturally saucy and forthe first time i didn?t ask for extra sauce. I did however ask for a side of beef because i just had to try it and of course iput it in the pasta as well. I did ask for some extra sauces on the side too and honestly there wasn?t really a need for them.But it was cool when i wanted to just add a drizzle of something different. To be detailed, the noodles were great. Texture onpoint, shrimp and sausage were pretty good as well, adding the beef really took it to the next level tho i must say. And yes, idid drink a lil sauce put the bowl when i was finished. That?s how you know it was fire. Would definitely recommend with outdoubt. Read more

Great late night meal after a fun concert! The food hit the spot for delicious Cajun Garlic fries and Bulgolgi Short Rib Steak!... Who knew this little gem in a small strip mall would have yummy, piping, hot food at nearly midnight in Costa Mesa! Veryimpressed my friend brought me here! The food was fresh and deliciously flavored and it was a casual, sit anywhere you want kindof relaxed environment. If I'm in the neighborhood again, I would gladly return! I highly recommend the Bulgogi Short Rib steakwith either rice or noodles! Read more

Great little place in the food central of Costa Mesa, East 17th., Street! Our first time here, the menu looked friendly, simple... and exciting. The food was in well proportions, delicious with good presentation. We had the Tiger shrimps with in a rice bowlwith vegetables, short rib sandwich, chicken wings, and finally the Cajun Fries. The food was really delicious and the short ribsandwich was one of the best I have ever had. Highly recommended as a semi gourmet fastfood! #letsguide Read more
