Overpriced and uninspired

by aquawarlock

After hearing rave reviews for their Hollywood branch (which often gets booked to the max) I decided to take a chance with the less-crowded Huntington Beach branch. Wow... (and not in a good way) -- the cocktails were weird-tasting, and while the dishes are OK, they're not that remarkable, small on portions, and really stuff I could've gotten for MUCH cheaper in real Asian restaurants. We got a Salmon in Red Curry (Daily Special) and Shaking Kobe beef, neither were really Pan-Asian/Fusion . . . just Asian-styled foods with a heftier price tag.

Would not go again.

• Pros: close to the beach
• Cons: very overpriced, just OK food

Best restaurant in Huntington Beach!

by hbmom

My family and I can't get enough of this incredible food! A previous reviewer discourages bringing children - but all I know is my teenagers love this food and it's very friendly servers. The menu has changed since this original review here. We find the portions are perfect not "small plate". My son loves the calamari appetizer and the shrimp dumplings, I love the cashew chicken, my daughter loves all of the noodle dishes and my husband is in reverie with just about anything they serve. This is definitely a busy happening place, but we usually have no problem being seated - maybe because we eat before things really get hopping in HB. Great place to bring visitors to HB.

Mixed reviews - Not for family fun

by grammiew

I love this place, but I can't get the men in my family to return, because they believe the portions are too small (they don't get "small plates" concept!) for the price. Do NOT bring children. THey are discouraged (that's the polite phrase.)

THis is a trendy place for 30 years olds at the bar. Food is incidental.

• Pros: Food presentation, taste
• Cons: parking is poor, portions are small for the price
