Went for brunch here with husband. Service was friendly, would love to see a bit more decor, though. The food was good - the karage chicken bowl being the stand out. The Okinomiyaki was a little disappointing- it barely had any cabbage, was practically just a pancake… BUT the pork baos were very good. Dalgona coffee was also delicious. We will come back and certainly hope that this cafe sticks around. I recommend checking it out - also, the prices are reasonable (for today’s economy).

We had a great, quick breakfast here! We had a Vietnamese Iced Coffee, Dalgona Coffee, Hong Kong French Toast and Okonomiyaki. It was our first time trying all these foods and we didn't know what to expect, but everything was awesome! We were looking for a breakfast without a wait where we could get in and out easily in 30 minutes, but still eat real food instead of just a pastry. This place is such a great fit in the neighborhood and we'll definitely be back. We visited on Valentine's Day and they made my pancake into a heart, which was so sweet! All the staff seemed super engaged and happy to chat and explain things on the menu.

First visit with my husband and daughter, and we were excited to try a new local spot. We ordered a variety of dishes, including fried shrimp wontons, chili peanut noodles, bao buns, and the chicken katsu platter, plus Vietnamese coffee. There were some highlights. The chicken katsu platter was excellent. The chicken, coating, and sauce were all very good, as well as the rice. The bao buns had a great texture, and the Vietnamese coffee was also very good. Service, however, was sparse and it was not very busy. We weren’t given enough silverware or plates for sharing and ended up having to make do with what we were given. The front seating area was also quite loud due to a freezer/refrigerator running behind our table, which, when paired with the music playing, made conversation in this small space difficult. A couple of dishes could use improvement. The shrimp wontons tasted overly fishy and were awkward to eat as a fried appetizer due to the way they were folded and their large size. The chili peanut noodles were very under seasoned and lacked depth beyond some heat, with a sauce that left a pasty coating in our mouths that was unpleasant. Overall, this place shows promise and has some areas of opportunity for improvement. We’d maybe revisit in 6 months after more time is given to work out some of the kinks with the service and menu/food consistency.

Nice quiet place no big tables so probably not good for big group. Dishes are all pretty spicy, even for a non spicy dish like congee, so not suitable for kids. Things are definitely overpriced compared to other “Chinese restaurants”, portion sizes are ok. Don’t expect the traditional dishes here, it’s more Asian fusion style.

Had the chicken katsu sandwich, wontons, and dumplings; all were delicious! The iced milk tea and ginger limeade were perfect with the meal. This was our first time here and we’ll be back often.

Got the peanut chili noodles with pork, wonton soup (which came without wontons) and Vietnamese coffee to go. Everything was fine, nothing to write home about. I felt like I got plenty of food and was full before I could finish. The service and atmosphere was incredible.
Loved it! Vibes are warm and friendly, food is high quality and very tasty

All the food was amazing and came out quick. The staff was super friendly, and vibes were awesome. Can’t wait to make this a regular stop! I was so sad we lost Falestine but the fact Sol has occupied the space is incredible! Duluth needs more restaurants like this.
