It's a nice hipster looking place with indie and alternative music in the background ? the staff is super friendly and you can see that they work as a team and get along ?‍♂️I tolerate spicy very little and well ? this place has very few menu options and several of them are, guest what? spicy ?️? however the good reviews and photos made us come ? the little I tried from my boyfriend's dish (Pad Kra Pao) it seemed to me that the meat was very well seasoned, and he was fascinated by his dish, the buns we ordered to share were delicious, sweet and soft, both the bun and the meat ?; my greens tasted sooooo good, we were impressed; the Jiao Zi were a surprise, I had never tried that flavor profile and I It seemed very interesting honestly but I also started to burn my mouth our waitress Natalie saw me struggling with water and my ginger beer and brought me ? milk like ❤️ it was the freakin’ sweetest and most considerate gesture on the ? because I knew that it would be spicy and I still took the risk and didn't ask for help but she was watching our table so she noticed it honestly super attentive not only with that but with her whole service during our stay, I am so pleased whenever I get actual quality services, 5 stars for Natalie ⭐️?We were satisfied in our tummies and our hearts ? (and had some leftovers to go ?)

We were excited to visit this restaurant based on its reviews. We quickly realized it was not only disappointing when it came to the quality of food but the service was equally as bad. The food was not edible, the amount of sodium put into each of the three dishes we ordered made our mouths hurt immediately and caused stomach aches after just trying a bite of each dish.The staff dropped off our food and never returned. We were never once asked how the meal was or if we needed something else. They acted like it was a burden when we approached the staff for our bill. They only asked us “what do we want” in a very demeaning and tone.We walked away paying full price for a meal that was inedible and for being ignored by the staff. Do not waste your time and money visiting this restaurant. You will be disappointed.

I have never ordered a dish at a restaurant that I have not been able to eat until eating here. I love sodium but every single dish we ordered was like having a spoonful of salt. A single bite was nauseating and that went for every single dish we ordered. I’m still trying to understand the rating. We payed way too much for food we couldn’t even eat and the server never checked in on us. Very disappointing

The okonomiyaki was pretty good. Bao was just alright, the buns were a bit dry but the pork was deliciously saucy and fatty. Our waitress was super nice but the atmosphere was sort of lacking.

If you want good Asian food don’t come here. The chicken was over fried, the beef was so salty we couldn’t eat it and the boc choy was not cleaned properly we tasted grains of dirt in it. Honestly the only good thing about the restaurant was the ambiance. If you are choosing between this place and Panda Express, I would choose Panda Express.

Everything was delicious. It wasn't to busy they have outdoor seating. Will come again for sure. We shared the plates which was nice.

I really wanted to like this place. The atmosphere is cool. But the food really fell short of Chinese food in Boston, Providence RI , New York and Toronto. Sorry Charleston- you need to up your

Insanely good. At first we were skeptical of the small menu and the encouragement to get multiple plates per person despite the ~$17 price on each.Until we got the food. Unbelievably flavorful. Absolutely delicious. And yes, good to get a few plates (we got three for the two of us) and share because the flavors are so rich but also so varied, so it's nice to eat a little from one and then take a break from that flavor by eating a little bit of the another.We were absolutely blown away. Delicious!Vegetarian options: Simple vegetarian options as well as items that they say can be made vegetarian upon respectDietary restrictions: Waiter asked right away if we have allergies or restrictions, so definitely conscientious and accommodating!

The okonomiyaki is off the hook! Make sure to get it with candied pork and a fried egg. Heaven!

This is one of those rare finds where you get ridiculously good food at a good price.They have a really simple menu, but the food was delicious, and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.Parking: They have their own parking lot. It was slow when we went, so no issue finding parking. But it would have been tough if we went when it was busy.

Okonomiyaki did rock as the reputation went. Mala chicken was disappointing. It was annoyingly salty and not made of fresh meat.
