I couldn't have had better food. This place has some of the most delicious food I've ever tasted. Yellow curry, crispy chicken, with egg fried rice was "heavenly". The House fried chicken was perfectly crispy and seasoned. And the stick rice with Mango was so delicious. It's been about a week and I can't stop thinking about the food. I live in Los Angeles and am sad I can't eat here ever week. But I know next time I come to San Diego, I'll absolutely be coming back here.

My friend invited me to the reopening in Lunar New Year experience and while we had to wait 2 hours for seating due to the performance and already being booked solid, it was definitely worth the wait! The hot and sour soup was spot-on, the garlic and mom made was divine and the best mango sticky rice ever! I wanted the strawberry lychee martini wish they were out of but an alternative was a plum wine with carbonation which was so so good and I got a nice pour. I can eat this whole combo again very soon and can't wait to go back!

After our trip to the San Diego Zoo with the boys, it was time for dinner! I tried the crab fried rice, which was good (I couldn’t even finish it, haha!). My husband enjoyed his drunken noodles with a nice kick of spice, just the way he likes it. There’s so much to try here, and I’m glad we gave it a shot. The place is busy, in a great location, and the server was really nice. Definitely worth it!

I ordered 2 orders of their House Fried Chicken that is stated to be "chicken thighs fried to perfection". Sure, if a cut up chicken thigh is then fried until void of any moisture or tenderness. It should be renamed House Super Tough Chicken Jerky. Unfortunately, I did a double order because I was hankering for some fried chicken. $70 for a couple of overcooked, dried-out and cut up (not even whole) thighs was very disappointing 😞
