| - People absolutely love this place and I heard the greatest things ever about it prior to going. The food is very authentic and if you're into the real deal Asian experience, this place has got ya covered. If I'm being honest though, my husband and I didn't really care for our meals. I got the boat noodles because I was afraid of most of the other dishes and he got the ramen because he said it was the only 'lo mien' noodle he could find on the menu. We were told to get the dumplings as an app, but they were out of them when we got there so we skipped on getting anything in hopes that the meal would blow us away. We tried each other's dishes and my opinion of the ramen is that it has a strong egg flavor. Granted, there are eggs in the soup and the noodles have egg in them I'm sure, but the flavor was pretty overpowering. As for my boat noodles, I'm not sure if it was the sauce they gave me to put on top, but the dish had an overwhelming smell and flavor of lemongrass. I may be a little off about the exact flavor but it made the dish almost inedible. The thing is that some people might really love these unique flavors, but they just weren't for us. You won't find typical Americanized Asian dishes on this menu. That means leave your picky friends and kids at home because they're not going to enjoy this place like someone that likes authentic Asian food. Give me some sweet and sour chicken and a boat of rice and I'm a happy camper, but this is much deeper and more unique than that so it just comes down to this: If you're a foodie and you love authentic and wild dishes, you'll like this place. If you're picky like me and the only vegetable you eat is fries, then I would suggest a place like Gimbu 01 or Hasaki.
