My partner and I just moved down from NYC ourselves and was looking for a great first place to eat. I did a quick search on Google Maps and saw the peculiar name which piqued our interest. After reading about the history of the restaurant and a quick menu glance, I knew this was the place.The outside is painted minimally, the patio was quaint, but nothing prepared us for the vibe inside. Such a great energy as soon as you walk in, everyone socializing and having a great time. It truly feels like you’re in a chic Brooklyn eatery.We were shown to our seats at the bar when we arrived and were swiftly greeted by the wonderful Dexter. His knowledge of the menu was astounding, but his drink making skills are impeccable! He perfectly executed what was being described and we enjoyed every single sip.Last but not certainly not least, the food. I don’t believe one can accurately describe how absolutely delicious these dishes were. Dexter said 3-4 plates would suffice for two people so we splurged and got 5.Stir-fry noodles: to die forField Greens: something so simple yet so full with flavorFried Kimchi: wonderfully addictingPork Dumplings: soft, plump, juicy, & spicy in all the right waysKaraage: I can eat every single day for the rest of my lifeAll in all, our experience left us completely and utterly satisfied, but wanting more in all the best ways. I knew I had to express my thoughts because as Biggie said “Spread Love, It’s the Brooklyn Way!”

No thrilly at Jackrabbit Filly. In my culinary opinion this place is very overrated. The food was just ok and definitely not worth the $153.00. We had kimchi fitters which were mostly batter. No kimchi flavor or kimchi whatsoever. You would not know what this dish was if you weren’t told what it was. Never had chicken karaage like this. Wasn’t marinated in Shoyu, garlic and ginger like it supposed to be. The noodle dish was good but overly salted and very little noodles. The fried rice with scallops was just ok. Fragrant vegetable dish was super salty! The worst dish was the seafood dish. All filler and no thriller. Green chunky peppers and chunky red onions with seafood? Very little shrimp with a few chunks of squid. This is a $24 dish. I liken it to a dish you would get at a cheap fast food Chinese takeout.

When I come here I feel good. Not somewhere I’d go on a date, but somewhere to go with someone I love. Good food. Definitely worth. Definitely get a Resy unless you’ll be waiting. Brunch is also the best(unless you don’t like non traditional)

For starters the parking is horrible. We arrived at 1:15 for our reservation and we're seated promptly. Our server seemed nice when she greeted us. We ordered five dishes to share amongst three people and they were all blah. This sticky rice portion was so small and lacked flavor. I understand that day old rice makes the best fried rice, but this rice just tasted old . The stuffed French toast was deep fried and greasy. The hot karaage chicken was not hot even though it was cooked well. The egg sandwich was bland. Lastly the pork dumplings came out 10 minutes after our other food. These were absolutely the worst dumplings I have ever had in my life. The dough was very chewy and made a pasty flavor in my mouth. Nothing wowed us. We ate because we were hungry. We left unhappy. Overall this place needs some flavor. Please seek some garlic, ginger, chili, soy, salt LOL something! I personally will not be returning. I've had much better Asian foid elsewhere. You can click my name to read those reviews.Parking: Good luck.

10/10 for everything! The vibe was amazing, the food was even better and the service was top tier. I am kicking myself for not going sooner and will certainly be back soon. The family style service makes it so easy to try a ton of dishes without committing to a large portion to yourself. Such a gem in park circle and will for sure be back ASAP.

We called ahead on Valentine’s Day and the hostess said she had room for us for dinner. We came, were sat and told that they had a reservation coming in an hour so we needed to order promptly (no problem). We ordered drinks and 6 dishes ($130 worth of items) immediately, 2 of the dishes came in 25 minutes and were great. We then got a tap on the shoulder from the hostess saying that they had moved all of our remaining food order to go and that they needed the seats. The bartender was not aware as she asked if we wanted another round of drinks. We told her what the hostess had just said and she didn’t say anything, brought the bill and another box for our food that we had been served and that was it. We were being kicked out. Nothing else was said other than your food is now to go, here’s the bill and that they needed the seats. Pretty ridiculous since the hostess said we could have dinner there, we were more than quick in ordering, and we were kicked out with a bill for $150+ within 40 minutes of walking in the door. Service was terrible and no one there could’ve cared any less. Go here if you want the same experience and want to eat to go “crab” fried rice in your car in the parking lot after being kicked out due to being busy.

Sooooo goooood and worth every award and bit of hype you’ve heard! This place is spectacular. We went for brunch and ordered 4 small plates to share among us three. It’s served family/tapas style and made for sharing. The flavors and layers of seasoning and creation are just perfect. Drinks were impeccable and strong. The prices are reasonable for the top quality served. Our server was attentive, friendly, and helpful. We’ll definitely be back!!Vegetarian options: Not many options, but worth the meat cheat ?Dietary restrictions: Read the menu if you have restrictions. May be difficult to find selections as there are animal proteins and gluten (sauces and seasonings) in almost every dish.Parking: Difficult to find parking as they only have 5 spaces, but plenty of off-street parking—just read the signs and don’t park in front of the other businesses nearby!Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly, though only recommended for kids with a distinguished palateWheelchair accessibility: Very accessible
If you're looking for overpriced, appetizer sized entrees, then this is the place for you! If you enjoy your food swimming in chili oil, look no further! Another review said it's a hipster trap and I could not agree more. Food was served "family style" or "tapas style" which we didn't know about until we already ordered. It took 45 minutes to get all of our entrees so we couldn't eat as a group.

Ambience is fun- the Christmas lights add a nice glow and there's lots of eastern influence in the decor style. More of a tapas vibe, so you order and share several dishes with your party. Half of the food was good, but half of the food was bad. Visited on a recommendation and it isn't the best as far as Asian cuisine, but then again I'm not sure if they're trying to do a fusion thing.
