Hidden Gem with Flavorful Food
What an absolute hole-in-the-wall gem! The place is tiny, with just shoulder-to-shoulder bar space and one table, but that's part of its charm. Despite the humble setup, the food truly punches way above its weight.
The chicken dish was fantastic—juicy, flavorful, and seasoned perfectly. My only note for next time is to ask for the sauce on the side, as it was poured over the rice by default and became a bit heavy. The mapo tofu was served in a generous portion, featuring silky-soft tofu with a rich, savory flavor.
It was a bit salty and not very spicy, even though we asked, but still really tasty overall. We enjoyed the free hot tea, which is always a plus. The best part?
It's cash or Venmo only, and two full plates came out to under $30, which is hard to beat in the city. Overall, it's a cozy, unpretentious spot packed with flavor. A must-try if you're nearby and want great food without the frills.

Delicious and Affordable Homemade-Style Cooking
My experience at this little spot was fantastic! They offer some of the most delicious and affordable cooking around, truly feeling like a homemade meal. I tried their #5 and loved every bite.
The chicken, the kebabs, and the imperial roll were all 🧑🍳 chefs kiss. The space is small, and while we found spots when we arrived, expect a tight and cozy environment. Overall, the food was exceptional, and the atmosphere was rated highly.

A Hidden Gem with Delicious Food
This is a small restaurant with a single table and the rest of the seating at the counter. I had the grilled chicken with meat sauce, served with rice and cabbage, and a magnificent spring roll. The portions were very generous for the price, and the food was very good.
It's a little gem! The lady who cooks is adorable.
