| - I read the good reviews on here and decided to check this place out for lunch yesterday. I had a great experience. It wasn't very crowded when I went in there, so I was able to talk to the owner. What a nice woman! She talked me through some of the dishes, and told me what to try with what sauce, etc. Very friendly and helpful. She's definitely the kind of person who you want to see succeed. Food was great! The barbecued skewers and salmon dish were especially exceptional. Great texture and flavor on both of them. Also, there was a very good dessert selection. I never knew how much I liked sweet sticky rice until yesterday. I think I ate 4 of them. To top it all off, I finished 3 buffet plates, and lunch came out to only $7.99!
My only complaint with this place is that the dishes weren't labeled. Some of the dishes look very foreign, especially to the average American, and I'm not sure that I would have tried them if the owner hadn't told me what they were. I'm a fairly adventurous eater, but I could see this being a problem with more timid eaters. This place could also use a little more decor and atmosphere, but that doesn't matter to me. Good food trumps decor every time. Talking to the owner, she already had plenty of ideas for how to improve the look and feel of the restaurant. This place is still very new, and I expect the atmosphere will continue to improve as it becomes more established.
Minor complaints aside, this place is awesome. I'll be making plenty of return trips.
