Worst service ever! Server literally came to our table to laugh at my toddler who’s trying to finish a meal on his own. And he was constantly giving us eye rolls and making the urggg expression throughout our meal.

We had the noodle soup, yellow curry, and pad Thai - it was all delicious. But the MUSSELS. Absolute game changer. So many flavors packed in those little bites. The garlic, chilies, and onions all complemented the flavor. Definitely worth a try!

The food here is super good, nice seasoning. I very like the milktea here, and the boba is great too. I ordered ka-kua, the soy sauce is delicious. Also the hot pot is perfect, the soup is very tasty, sour combine with spicy and sweet from the seafood. Although the service is kinda slow, it's okay btw.
