Super friendly service and absolutely wonderful food! Good for vegetarians and carnivores alike, gluten free options available. The kaddo appetizer is honestly out of this world, and the bowlawni are lovely too. Will definitely be going back!

I came here with a large work group, so my experience may not be relevant to everyone. I have a gluten allergy and I asked if anything will be gluten free. First, they had preselected dishes for our table on a menu that wasn't labeled. Second, the waiters did not know what did or didn't contain gluten. Third, I couldn't eat anything that came out to the table, though they kept promising they would bring something soon. Finally they brought out some crab dish that was covered in tempura flakes and vehemently tried to convince me it's gluten free. I kept telling them it wasn't. They left, then came back and took the tray away. At that point it was pretty clear I can't trust them and I left. Very disappointed to have had to leave my conference, and that they did not care about their guests enough to prepare some food I could eat for an hour. It could be that the organizers did not flag to them that they have people with allergies coming. Not sure.
