I got the monkey fries from here that were mad flavorful. Made with ground beef, and cheese with this mayo-based sauce over seasoned fries. 8.8. I also got this decent duck gumbo too. The broth lacked flavor kinda bland but wasn't terrible thou. 7.9. Overall I like the setup and this place has some interesting items on the menu worth checking out. 8.5.

i love this place so much but for the last month or two everything i've gotten here has been slightly undercooked, especially when i order during the day. it seems like they have someone new in the kitchen who isn't really figuring it out. i hope they fix this as it's everyone's local favorite.

Love their food. Typically order online but I've dined in as well and enjoyed myself. Delivery is pretty quick (quicker than some fast food options even).my favorites are their picadillo/chorizo egg rolls and the DUCK GUMBO (w added chicken and/or shrimp). One of few places I can get a hibiscus juice (as a fan of bissap or sorrel) . Also good: their bacos, monkey fries, THE DIPPING SAUCES, and a host of other items
It's actually wild how often I eat here/order delivery from here.
You don't get a good bang for your buck on portions side, but that stuff is tasty - no getting around that. They had this lemonade this one time that rocked - haven't seen that in my following visits though.

So I am in the middle of a cold and needed some soup desperately. I was on DoorDash looking for pho and this place popped up. I ordered the chicken mexi-pho and OMG!!! It was so amazing. Spicy enough to clear my sinuses, not too hot that I was uncomfortable. It was absolutely perfect. I also ordered the Vietnamese coffee-YUM, and the ropa verja bao tacos with kimchi. Everything was so delicious. This place is a true gem and as I am still sick today, I’m ordering more soup; and will continue until I’m healed. So Saucey Porka; thank you for keeping this tired momma alive, my husband and 3 year old both loved this place and I can rest and know dinner is handled.

Bahn mi's were delicious and fresh, chorizo egg rolls and funky monkey fries were insane. Definitely get those. Price was on par for value and service was great
I was so satisfied with this place, I HAD to run it back the next day.
Day 1 I had Bacos. The pork one was nothing special. The shrimp was probably my fav. I enjoyed the corn salsa that came on it. The duck baco was delicious as well. I could probably eat these everyday.
Day 2- I ordered the duck and shrimp bacos. ??♀️ Anyway, I wanted to try something different so I ordered the gumbo with duck and added shrimp for an extra charge. Now the gumbo was tasty, however, I would not call it a gumbo because it did not have okra. The word “gumbo” literally means okra. Also, it was a little too thin for me. I know I’m nitpicking, but it is what it is. Would I ordered again? Yes, and that’s all that matters.

Food 3/5: everything was prepared well. I only question the recipes, not for their fusion, but lack thereof. This is still worth revisiting for Five Spice Duck, which has yet to be tried.- Duck Gumbo: The weakest seasoned of my order, this was more broth than not. Make it like pho and add sides of lime wedges, chiles, jalapenos and/or serrano peppers.- Chorizo Egg Roll: They look like Chili's Southwestern Eggroll but thankfully carry more texture. However, as starchy as they may be, Chili's has more flavor.- Funky Monkey Fries: Best flavor of the three dishes tried. They remind one of Chili's starchy Southwestern Eggrolls.Service 5/5: nicest people one could find. Very attentive as well.Atmosphere 4/5: clean although those floors were sticky, perhaps on purpose so that no one slipped? Next: the disposal area. Like a barbecue eatery, there's a trash receptacle with a sign to leave plates and such on top of same. What about a separate container for utensils, like those barbecue places have? That might make things easier for the workers. Last: I wasn't offered a way to tip electronically. Some, such as myself, may want to, but don't carry cash. Please let customers tip the workers electronically.
I love saucy porka.Service: Their service is unmatched. One time after a school event, I brought over 15 hungry students here for dinner. Without losing composure, they were able to get all of our food ordered, cooked, and served very promptly and efficiently. They took good care of us and I really appreciated it after a long day.Food: It's great. Their fusion cuisine is amazing and has authentic flavors from the cultures it pulls from. I would highly recommend the ropa vieja beef banh mi. It's full of flavor and has a nice culinary twist that everyone can appreciate. I have also heard great reviews on the rice bowls. The Bacos are ok, the Bao buns were a little soggy when I ordered it though.
