Reviews
- calm_lemongrassThe food here is honestly so good — really unique flavors, the kind of place where you finish eating and immediately wanna come back. Everything we tried was super tasty and the ingredients and service were both on point. Definitely not one of those spots that's all style over substance, it's legit delicious. Highly recommend trying it out, no notes. The vibe: tucked down a little side alley, so don't drive if you can help it. The setting is nice though. I actually just walked in randomly and got lucky with a table. The service: the head chef is super chill, doesn't say much, but you can tell he takes the food seriously. Everything coming out of the kitchen is really well done. Price-wise: pretty solid, no complaints. Will definitely be back.
