| - Sochu House really impressed my date and I!
We were there for a drag king pageant, and decided to get dinner beforehand. We had the Saigon Egg Rolls, Thai Spring Rolls, and Tofu Wedges, with the Sweet Fried Wontons for dessert.
The Saigon Egg Rolls were incredible! Served with a small salad, which helped cool our palates from the spicy (but oh so delicious) sauce.
The Thai Spring Rolls were delicious, too, but nothing super special - for the price, I may opt for something different...that being said, the mint in these spring rolls was AMAZING.
The Tofu Wedges were my favorite - I have a thing for fried tofu that's crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside...and these were PERFECT. Served with the standard spicy peanut sauce, these were a delightful end to our dinner. It was a super generous portion, too.
The dessert definitely stole the show...the Sweet Fried Wontons blew us away. Cream cheese and goat cheese fried in a wonton skin, drizzled with a sweet strawberry sauce. My only complaint is the small portion - not enough to share with a friend/date, unless you're both already stuffed from dinner (and then it's perfect).
My date and I just had water (also delicious, infused with cucumber!) and dinner was, including tip, just under $40. Overall, not bad - especially with the amazing atmosphere that Sochu House has to offer. Comfortable seating, nice lighting on the patio, and an attentive (but not overly so) wait staff.
