The boat soup is amazing!! Get the crispy pork and put in soup. Had great lunch! Owner was server too.
Boyfriend and I came in to eat here for our Anniversary! The food was AMAZING! Food tasted like my grandmother’s cooking. Customer service was wonderful, love the ladies there! Definitely will be coming back again.
Been there twice so far!!! The Red Curry with Beef and the Drunken Beef Noodles are the talk of town!!! Souli and Tania are the best!!! 🙌
