Great food and great service. The curry sauce that comes with the fries is really good, and the hanger steak is fire. The peppers onions and mushrooms it’s served with are really good, and the mint chutney is a fantastic addition. Everything came out quickly, and they also packed up our leftovers for us which was awesome.
We walked in a very basic looking place , but I needed up loving our choice. Surprisingly very good food. Decent size portions! Seaweed salad, wings, fries, pork bao. Loved it all! Thank you so much!

What a fun hidden gem! I came here with a friend with no reservation and no line on a Thursday night.Good:- Loved the laksa noodle soup here - so much flavor and the coconut flavor was very pronounced and good.- The fries here were great and I loved the dipping sauce- Good place for a catchup - it was nice and quiet inside and good clean vibes that felt homey- Staff were so kind and willing to help!- Good value!Bad:- Took a bit for entrees to come out!Overall this was a great find, and tucked into a nice corner of the mission. I will be back!

Had a great dinner here. I had the laksa, which was fantastic, but I wish I got it with ramen noodles. I have a high spice tolerance, so this place was perfect for me, but definitely order with care if that's not you!Dietary restrictions: No peanuts in the kitchen!

Let me start by saying that my wife and I were both super excited to go here because of the great reviews and the amount of dishes.We went there for a Saturday night dinner and started off with the Vietnamese coffee for her and Nigori Sake for me. She loved the coffee however it was not made with typical Vietnamese ingredients. It seemed like chicory coffee instead of Vietnamese ground coffee.We also ordered the Korean Wings, Garlic Fries with curry mayo, Pork Bao, and Tonkatsu Ramen. The Korean Wings were cooked really well and were pretty sticky but the taste was incredibly sweet. The Garlic fries with curry mayo were the best part of the meal but again there wasn’t anything that stood out except perhaps that the curry powder used was the Japanese brand.The Tonkatsu Ramen ( one of the main reasons I went there) was super bland. The broth barely had any flavor. I kept having to add Sriracha to get some flavor. There was no umami, definitely no Tonkatsu. It had pork belly, which would’ve been fine if it was actually good. It was not! I am an avid lover of Ramen. This was not good ramen. The noodles were somehow undercooked and barely edible.The Pork Bao tasted like balsamic vinegar and sherry with too much sweetener. It had none of the notes of authentic pork bao. You can find authentic pork bao on Clement st. To be honest, the pork was over cooked and incredibly fatty.The highlight was that the service was incredible. They were very attentive without being in your face. The service was a 5/5 but food was 2/5.It’s a good place to hangout after a few drinks but not meant for foodies, especially individuals looking for an authentic meal.
Super rich, super tasty East Asian comfort food. Nothing healthy about this joint but ingredients are fresh and the flavor is on fleek. The menu is fairly compact but in a very good way, a diversity of choices but no decision anxiety from a multi-page menu. We started with the pork Shu-Mai which were solid, very well prepared but not epic. Same for the crispy spring rolI, they were a bit pedestrian. The mains and sides were the 4-star caliber dishes: we went with the Spinach and Roasted Garlic Fried Rice (strong in flavor, only for garlic lovers), the Mongolian Chicken which was super savory and a tad too rich but overall pretty epic in flavor, and the garlic green beans which had the right balance of garlic and sweetness and salt were also the bom dot com. Service was friendly but the dishes were staggered in an non-ideal way, apps came out together but then there was about a 20 min wait after we finished those before our first entree came out (the fried rice), and then another 10 mins before the other two dishes (chicken and green beans) came out.

All of the starsI consider myself a green curry connoisseur. It is my favorite of all the Curry's and this place is now on my top of the mountain in San Francisco for Green Curry and be still my heart, but they also have an excellent IPA on draft. It doesn't get any better. Lovely cozy restaurant. I am seeing a show over at the brava theater and found myself starving before I am so happy to have found this place.

Discovered this place while on a trip to San Francisco. My friend was visiting her bf when we ended up here for dinner. We had the garlic noodles with beef, they were so good. They have great wings. We also had the Zen Noodle soup which was perfect for the cloudy and rainy weather. The staff that helped us for the evening, if I recall correctly his name was Luna something, was very nice and made sure everything was going smoothly. The ambiance was similar to what you would read in those romance novels where the characters would meet their soulmate at.
