| - Close to 5*, especially given what you might expect when you see the place and its location.
I mean, what on earth is a place this good doing in a crappy little casino on E. Sahara near Lotus? We split an order of pork belly bao, and then I got a short rib grilled cheese and the wife got the duck rice with an egg.
Our waitress Michelle told us how everything was cooked (both the techniques and the timing), but honestly I was so distracted by something going on at work that I didn't really internalize it; plus my expectations were so low. But man oh man, the bao was pretty solid, the short rib grilled cheese was pretty much heaven (not super hard to get right, but the short ribs were done really well, and short-rib-anything is such amazing comfort food), and OMG the duck rice. Super flavorful rice/sauce topped w a confit duck leg w a ginger/garlic sauce. All served w fries or salad.
Will be back for sure. Bao $7, grilled cheese $10 I think, duck rice $12+$2 for egg.
Had only 4-ish options for tip (something like 0/15/18/20) using cc on square app, so if you would be annoyed by that (i was initially but got over it), bring cash.
