twice fried chicken wings!! not on the menu, but available if you ask. so GOOD!
Claudia AMarch 8, 2015I come here at least once a week, by far my favorite restaurant in Chapel Hill. The ceviche is on point and the Pozole is also amazing.- Great date spot. Lots of drink options and a cool Mexican-Asian fusion menu. The pork belly buns are awesome!
- Tobias PerrinoMarch 21, 2014Definitely try the ginger lemongrass guacamole, pork buns and tuna for appetizers. I ordered the Lamb and it is great.
Jane AgueroMarch 19, 2018One of the best-executed strange fusion restaurants I’ve been to. The spicy fried tofu is EVERYTHING.
Jonathan SeelbinderApril 11, 2013Biggity wow... Tacos are delicious... All of them... And the filet will make your clothes fall off.
Tacito George JrApril 19, 2013Place is very classy. It felt good to sit and have drinks. Will come back again for sure.
Food is great but this place plays way too much Lana Del Ray. Only so much Lana I could take.

"Amazing, national acts come through this intimate venue at unbelievable prices (at least to this displaced New Yorker). Cheap local beer, friendly staff. I'd see any show here. Any. Show."
