Emily TaingJanuary 20, 2013Best papaya salad I've ever had... excluding my mom's. lamb meatballs and potato balls FTW.
Tasting TableMay 25, 2012Try the fried head-on shrimp. They crackle boldly with the spark of both lime juice and wild-lime leaves: Read more
Megan GemJune 11, 2012Get the scallion fried rice and lemongrass chicken! You'll never look at Chinese takeout the same after this!
Mike WinstonMay 6, 2012You need the Fried Potato Balls, they are incredibly light and the sauce works perfectly
Best new Chinese restaurant in NYC! Much better than Mission Chinese down the street.
Dom GoodrumSeptember 27, 2012Lamb meatballs, tofu ribbon salad and Chinese sausage rice. And repeat.
David TaylorMay 15, 2012Make sure you say "tap" water when they ask I you want "sparkling" or" still" -- both are $5 bottles.
Ham rice cake is not yo' mama's rice cake--savory, saucy goodness!
pinsuda sagooleimJuly 9, 2012Lots of hype that this place is awesome. Nothing on the menu is over $13.
Shane AntonyAugust 17, 2013Not a huge fan of the potato balls. Definitely needs more flavor. Tofu salad was surprisingly good, though.
