So delicious and the service was delightful and extremely fast! Very impressed last night. There are a lot of vegetarian options for such a moderately sized menu and they were so good. My favorite dishes from last night:
#1. Creamy peanut noodles
#2. Marinated tofu
#3. Seaweed burrata (not as yummy as the green beans but points for coolness)
#4. Garlic green beans

Will be back, so much I still to try. Two dishes in particular are a can't miss opportunity. Spicy Tuna Sambal Kewpie crispy tacos. Absolutely incredible. Numbing Wings, have to be tried to be believed.
Shishito peppers could have been cooked a bit better, but they are tasty no matter what happens.
Poke Bowl and Curry Mussels were on point, although I thought a low absorption bread like Pita to be an interesting choice. Slice of grilled bread from Rosemont Bakery next door perhaps? 😎
Anyways, I gave five stars, service was great, plates were tasty and very creative, ambiance impressive, can't wait to go back and have some Seaweed Burrata and Duck Ramen.

Returned to Portland after a long time away and chose to go somewhere new instead of an old haunt. So glad we did. Everything was exceptional. Had the Chinese Numbing Wings, Friend Chicken Ramen, and Creamy Chili

This place was amazing the cocktails were unique and generous and we started with the shredded chicken and green beans both fresh and tasty I had the spicy beef ramen which was so good the beef was so tender and veggies fresh with amazing tasting broth and my girlfriend had the duck ramen which was succulent with delicious salty broth the staff were very friendly and inviting and when we called to ask them if we could move our reservation a little due to the fact we got to Maine little later they assured us it was no issue we were only visiting but if I were a local i would be a regular but will certainly revisit when I’m in Portland again!!

This place is great. Ordered Szechuan chicken shareable to start. Just about perfect. Flavorful and a light spice. 2 of us thought the spice level was perfect, and 2 felt it could be kicked up 1 more notch. All were in agreement. It was delicious. My meal was the fried chicken ramen. Even with all the different ingredients, I swear, you could taste every individual flavor. Divine. The other 3 folks felt the same about their meals.

Absolutely top notch service and wonderful food. I had the poke bowl and my girlfriend had the fried chicken ramen. So beautifully balanced and it was such a great environment. Loved watching the cooks workflow. So quiet and relaxed. Truly a gem.
