take 50 minute to get your food

I recommend you take out or eat in at the restaurant. drunken noodle is good, but some sushi had too much rice, and delivery services is always bad. it usually takes about 50 minute to get your food, so you'll get dry noodle. if you eat in at the restaurant, recommend you a thick noodle dishes than thin noodle.

  • Pros: good thai coffee, some good dishes
  • Cons: poor delivery services, dry noodles.

This eclectic pan-Asian restaurant features an adventurous mix of Thai, Korean, and Japanese dishes. The eatery?s ultra-modern decor is like a nightclub with its vibrant colors, funky dangling lights, porthole windows, gleaming tiles and cushy booths. The hip sushi bar serves colorful house drinks like the fruity ?Woo Woo,? a mix of cranberry juice, peach schnapps and vodka. The sushi selections sparkle including the Spice & Rice Maki, a salmon, crab and avocado roll with black, red and green fish eggs. Thai standouts are the Randang Curry: chicken, bell peppers and carrots in a spicy sweet coconut sauce; and the Crispy Pad Thai: shrimp, chicken, and egg with crispy fried rice noodles. Off the Korean menu, try the Tofu Bi Bim Bab, crispy tofu marinated in red sauce with seasoned vegetables. Also good is Shrimp In The Pan, which is fish served over a fire in bubbling brown sauce with glass noodles and vegetables. End the meal with their radiant green tapioca pudding served elegantly in a martini glass.
