Cute and small. I had this restaurant on my list for some time since it opened. I had some time and had a hankering for Chinese, so I parked across the street, paid the meter, and came in.
I waited in the doorway to be seated while the server took a noisy family's order. I probably should've seen this as a sign to leave, but i stayed. The music was great, and the vibe was clean, Asian, "Urban hang suite." Very cute, yet minimalist.
Eventually, i was seated with a glass of water and a menu. It was really cold outside and strangely enough. Cold inside the restaurant as well. After sitting a while, I only unbuttoned my coat because it was still too cold to take it off. Even after 15 minutes waiting, the restaurant itself was freezing, soooo strange.
I looked at the menu, and a lot of the things that I saw online were no longer listed on the menu, so I selected shrimp fried rice. Simple, right? No. The shrimp were cut into pieces, and there were clumps of unseasoned rice, all through it. For the price, I was expecting more flavor, quality, and ingredients. I added some soy and chili oil, and it was edible. But coming across mystery crunchy bits was not my idea of a good time. Maybe I'll try the salt and pepper shrimp one day (it looked tasty), but it will definitely be warmer out.
