OKAY SO DELICIOUS.
First of all, I called at 6:30 to see what time they closed and OMG they were so sweet on the phone! A lot of busy restaurants often brush you off, but even though they were super busy, they were so kind and I didn't feel like an inconvenience.
I didn't realize it's not a formal sit down place, but that's okay. Most people seemed to do take out so there was plenty of seating for anyone who walked in.
We took our order up front, and again, they were so kind and helpful. We didn't feel rushed at all. I think the only complaint from the group was there's no beer, but I didn't mind that.
Like I said, they were super busy, and I could tell they were a little insecure about it. They made us an appetizer of brussel sprouts on the house (which were delicious) to apologize for the wait - but to be honest, I didn't think the wait was bad at all. The same amount of time at a regular restaurant. Our appetizers that we did order came out SO quick so they shouldn't have even worried!
I got the butterfly tea, which was so delicious and naturally sweet. Then I got the rice fritters for an appetizer, so yum!! The sauces on it were the bomb. For dinner, I got the crispy tofu bowl. I'm not sure what they do to their rice but, um....it's crack. Wow. It's weird to say "the best rice ever" but seriously, the best rice ever. It had such good texture and flavor! Their tofu was also super flavorful and delicious. They really load you up on toppings and sauces.
Overall, I will absolutely be back next time I'm in the area for work. This place is the freaking bomb, I wish we had one close to home. Highly, highly recommend.
