Love Stories We’ve Catered

The dumplings are to die for. Thicc noodles and vermicelli were amazing. Haven’t found customer service like this in a while. The girl who served us was extremely nice and funny. Love the family dynamic.

First time eating here and I was so impressed! Hours later, I’m still thinking about my delicious meal and already planning my next visit. I had the Singapore noodles, salad rolls, and a Vietnamese coffee, and every item was phenomenal!

As someone with celiac, I always feel cautious eating out, but I was really impressed by the clear gluten-friendly options on the menu. The staff was super helpful, and I felt confident talking to them about my dietary needs.

I also really appreciate that they are a small business making an effort to source local ingredients. I had a fantastic experience and will absolutely be back. Thank you for making my first visit so enjoyable and safe!
