Always greeted with warm a welcome, food is great and not super expensive and the service is great too. Nice and quiet and close to campus!

Family was in town craving from their college days. Couple upstairs was so sweet & food is authentic! Boba Thai tea could’ve beeb a bit better. However still highly recommend & marketing wise they should add another sign to be seen as they are hard to see from main gate could be why their business is slow at this time as it could be missed easily.

A hidden gem. Their chicken Pho (available for dine-in only) is the best in Tucson. Healthy comfort food. Ask for it spicy!

Nice, quiet place to eat local on campus. Boba tea can be hit or miss, but their food has always been good. Not a hugely expansive menu like some other places nearby, but the items they do have they make well. Nice staff, and I appreciate the free ice water to refill my water bottle.

Hidden gem! Great food and great service. It’s upstairs above snakes and lattes. Really nice to sit outside for a “rooftop” feel.

Sesame chicken was real good and so was the sweet-and-sour chicken.
This place is great
The worst food is served on styrofoam plates. It was terrible

The Mongolian beef was very tender and perfectly seasoned. The hot and sour soup had a great level of spice. Highly recommend!
Would not recommend the food, unfortunately. The egg soup tasted really odd and watery, and near the bottom of the bowl were clumps of corn starch. Got the chow fun noodles and the portion was very small. None of the food was satisfying.
Great food and still very consistent after many years in business.
Must try!

Second time I’ve eaten here! Food is very good! The menu is good and I can’t believe how affordable it is. Remember it’s upstairs! Please support this small business
