All the food was good but the veggie dishes were a standout for me! I would definitely come back and get more of the mushrooms and asparagus and oxtail.

One of the best restaurants in town! Hubby made reservations on a Saturday. Upon arrival we opted to be seated inside. Then I ordered the Moscato and hubby got their organic orange soda. For an appetizer we had the bruschetta, crab cake and oxtail dumplings-sooo delicious! Then we ordered the roasted corn, squid ink fettuccine and half chicken(a lil salty). We couldn't resist ordering their delicious snapper but ended up taking it home. All in all this is one of my favorite restaurants in Los Angeles. The portions are small but we had no problem ordering a variety of dishes. The customer service was great. Will definitely be back!

Had a birthday dinner with my boyfriend and we thoroughly enjoyed it! Both the food and the atmosphere were amazing! Can't wait to go back to try more meals!

Happy that they were able to accommodate us as walk-in’s on a Sat night! I thought the taste of the food overall was okay, but my friend really enjoyed every dish. We got the fried snapper, king trumpet mushroom, bone marrow, Sun chokes, and the grilled mussels. Red Snapper: Personally, I thought the fried snapper lacked taste in itself - and needed to rely on the side dipping sauce, which was too sweet for me (and the fish sauce flavor in the sauce was pretty strong, usually I don’t mind fish sauce at all). Was hoping the fish itself had more flavor without relying completely on the side sauce. King trumpet mushrooms: Was okay, didn’t really stand out. Grilled mussels: Wasn’t a fan and I’m usually a huge fan of mussels. Some of the mussels didn’t seem to be completely cooked. The sauce came on a side - I prefer my mussels soaked in sauce. Bone Marrow: Not a personal fan of the seasoning used. Sun chokes: This was probably my favorite dish of the night - they were cooked so nicely with a lovely citrusy hint of flavor. I’d like to note that our server was great, and provided fantastic service throughout the night.
