The fries are good...
The flavor is good...
Not to my liking, the wings are big...

The atomic wing sauce is spicy but I didn't like the TASTE of habanero peppers...

The cajun wings tasted like buffalo wings with a lil trickle of cajun spice.

The garlic parmesan was cripsy and yummy.

I'd rather eat at Hooters.

Ok.. the food isn't bad. I've had good sushi here... udon, tempura, and all that jazz. However, it's overpriced with small portions. The chicken teriyaki, for example, they gave little giblet sized gizzard looking things... Like crumbs of chicken teriyaki. No thank you.  And no, it's not the kind of restaurant where small portions are cooler. Whenever I to go food here (only because I work right next door), they're sooo stingy with everything.

There was a time when I asked the older waitress bitch for sriracha hot sauce. They said they don't carry hot sauce! Wtf! Lying ass bitch. I need hot sauce with japanese food... Just walk your lazy ass to the back of the kitchen and give me some hot sauce! If my ma's boutique wasn't right next to this place, I would've already given her a piece of my mind. Ugh... Screw that bitch. No tip for you.

The best pho I've ever had... Usually, pho is like a donut. It's missing something on your palette. The pho here has a certain "oomph" that fills that donut hole. It's sweeter~~~ it really does the job on a rainy day.

I had no idea this place was good until I tried the rest of the yakitori places... Something about the chicken is addictive. The service still sucks.

    The saboro rice was yummy. The regular wings were extremely tasty. Everything else ended up tasting exactly same. The service was so bad. It also didn't help that a trainee was waiting on us. We asked for our sake about 6 times and got it an hour later. That wasn't even the worst part of it... I won't get into it. I'll flip out. The wings basically salvaged this place.

Perfect place to eat good food and drink good beer. The burger was amazing! You can only have it one way. No condiments nor hot sauce. Take it or leave it.

They totally revamped their menu. Revamped, as in shortened it. For better or for worse? You decide. Many of my friends favorite dishes were taken off the menu. And guess what? No more paella! What the hell? So we were pretty much set up to order things we otherwise wouldn't order. However, I was pleasantly surprised by it's tastiness. Not bad at all... But not great either.

Also, there's a $5 corkage fee. Unless you buy the wine next door and bring in the receipt...

    Tapas!!!

    I love this place~ Here are some of my suggestions:
    1. Do not come here starving. These fun little plates will have you spending a lot more than you bargained for.
    2. Do not sit next to the mini open kitchen. The fireplace oven will have you sweating more than carmelized onions.
    3. Do buy a nice bottle of red next door! It's BYOB and no corkage fee~
    4. Do come with a good amount of friends. More to share, more to taste!

    Yum!

I totally forgot I enjoyed this place~ it was V day too!

Of course, I started with a few slightly dirty goose martini's to offset the sexy mood of V day. And then went onto an aphrodisiac of fresh oysters that made me squirm and go "Oy~ so fresh!" Then I lunged into some crab cakes that were absolutely delectable! I needed more crab... So I couldn't help myself but enjoy a crab and fresh arRrrRRrugula salad. What's sexier than truffle fries? So of course, I made sure I pleasured myself with ordering those special fries. Mmm~ delicious... For the main course, I ordered the asian style sea bass. Nothing sexy about that. Nothing really good about it either, so I move on. My manster had lobster and it was seemingly delicious. (I don't like lobster.) At the end of this course, a banana tart chocolate cake a la mode~ the manster went to the men's room for what he says was a quick tinkle, and by the time he came back, the dessert was chomped away.

Escargot? Just the thought of it gives me the heebie jeebies... The little crates of puff pastry looked like unfrosted little cupcakes I used to make with my little sister. I dipped my miniature fork into the puff and instantly a cloud of a delicious combination of garlic, butter, and herbs changed my mind. Along with the fork, out came a black slimy slug. And then once again, I changed my mind. "I can't do this..." so I flung the escargot onto my friends plate. "Thanks!" she said happily, and eagerly devoured it. I looked at my other friends and they were seemingly enjoying something that I didn't get. That pissed me off. I went a-go at it again. I quickly and reluctantly took a bite of the smothered slug into my mouth. Whoa~ *sparkle sparkle*  yummy~! An escargot convert was made.

The oysters were absolutely bombay and fresh! A great wine selection, bien sur! And of course, you can never go wrong with pomme frites. I had the seabass in which the portion was a bit minute. I downed it in about two and a half minutes. Wish I could've enjoyed it longer...
