Picked up some takeout from here on a Saturday afternoon when they had just opened. Their online ordering service was convenient and the order was ready upon arrival. I ordered the Mongolian Beef Monk Bowl (with noodle instead of rice) and the fresh and crunchy Side Salad. Both were a welcome relief from the heavy holiday fare I'd been consuming all December long. The veggies in the bowl and the salad were delicious and very fresh. The sauces which were ordered on the side were tasty and enhanced the meal. The dining room was bright and inviting, and though my order was to go, I'd definitely eat there if I were in the area. Delicious and very enjoyable, can't wait to return.
Came here last night and have been here a few times before! Sign your name on the waitlist right when you walk in if they're full. Waited about 10-15 min to be seated on a busy Saturday. Had coconut shrimp and some pot stickers for appetizer which were delicious and came out quickly. Had the monk bowl with pork and noodles and an over hard egg and it was sooo amazing! their monk bowl is their signature and so delicious. put their sauces they have in the table on the bowl and you're in Heaven! server was very sweet and attentive. great little local spot:)
Experienced this spot last night for dinner. I was really impressed with their stone bowls. This place is fresh and healthy. I will be coming back. The service was 7/10. And the atmosphere was comfortable. I really enjoyed trying new things. Looking forward to another experience soon.
We love this place! Monk pot is the best; my picky eater also loved the ramen! So glad this place is still here after so many years!
