Delicious dinner had after a full day at Sugar Mountain. We had the Tom Yum soup with vegetables and tofu (very good), a spicy tuna roll, a Philly roll, and a dragon roll (super good). Staff were super friendly. This will be a regular stop for us when we are in town.

Went to this place for the first time today. We live in Asheville and was just going to smaller cities that we have not visited and OMG. We saw this place leaving the mountain and I was hungry. And we were looking at the shop next door. And they opened at 1130 on Sunday so we were like. Why not....... and OMG. Im soooo happy I went here. I got box number 5 and the salmon is butter. It was so smooth and soft and delicious. And I have never liked ginger salads because everywhere I go they use that nasty iceberg lettuce. NOT THIS PLACE. This place has the BEST ginger salad I have eaten. And I mean I ate the whole salad. I always give my ginger salad to my husband, but not this time. And the veggie tom spicy soup. I know I didn't put the whole names im sorry, that soup was so good. It was like a hug. I could eat a giant bowl of that soup. We have the sticky rice mango for dessert and it was 👌 perfect. I can wait to drive the 2 hours again. I told my husband to save this place in his Google. Because I havvvvvvvve to come back to this place. Uncle Lee. You know what you are doing. You are all so amazing. And the service was so welcoming. I felt like I was in someone home and they were feeding me.

Wonderful and nice people! Great customer service! We made a reservation on the phone and the lady was so nice and accommodating! Had the tuna tataki and tom yum soup. The soup has coconut milk in it and SO good! My friend got the oxtail pho and it was so good! I got the poke bowl and it was good! Definitely recommend!

Had the pad Thai with grilled shrimp, absolutely delicious and I would consider some of the best pad thai I’ve ever had. Also had the Uncle Lee’s roll and it was phenomenal. Great atmosphere and will definitely come here again next time we’re in Banner Elk!

Exceeded expectations! The food was exceptional. The salmon sashimi was remarkably fresh and buttery with outstanding flavor. The sushi rolls were beautifully prepared and thoughtfully presented. The Pad Thai was the best we have ever had, featuring large, fresh grilled shrimp cooked to perfection. Everything was artfully presented and full of vibrant flavor. Thank you for a very tasty experience.

Food is OK, but not close to a good Asian restaurant in a bigger city. Service is nice.

Very nice restaurant. Attended a small private party in the porch area one night and another evening went for dinner with two friends and sat in the same area. Lovely view and outdoor feel!
