Overall rating: 4.6 Visiting from: NYC Needed a late night meal and found this place through a google search. We arrived really late that they were just about to close their kitchen. I got the samosas which were not good. I was not happy. But! The basil ice cream was absolutely amazing!! Soo goood. My friend has the drunken noodles and said they were really good. Our server who seemed like a manager was also so friendly. It seemed like this place housed alll types of Asian which feels like a good resource in CDMX, but as an Asian - a tad overwhelming.

Deliciousss. Authentic flavors and unique Asian dishes. I really liked the baby back ribs, pho soup and the tobiko fried rice. I recommend as well the Fujian mocktail. I am definitely coming back to the cozy environment and the friendly staff.

Such a cozy spot! Our server, David, really knew his stuff! he walked us through the menu like a pro and had great cocktail and wine recommendations. The food was absolutely delicious, and we’re definitely coming back. We actually ordered a bunch of dishes, but honestly, I was way too hungry to stop and take pictures!

I sat outside to enjoy the breeze. Our host graced me with a smile. I don’t speak much Spanish but they had someone there to help me. All I asked for was for the most picante item and he served me the king fu noodles. Noodles were tasty and it came with shrimp, although could have used more shrimp but still an adequate portion. They also had tasty deserts. I will return

Don’t skip on the stir fried kale - our favorite dish we tried! Everything was exceptional and we are grateful our hotel concierge recommended this restaurant to us

Yes, it is a bit pricy, but the menu is extensive and the food quality is great! With such a big range of options, anybody can find something worth trying. Food is fresh and cooked at the moment you order. Drinks (virgin and not) are great as well. We recommend it as a late meal and order to share. What we love ordering is: Pork Belly Bun - Sweet and works as an entree Kai Soup - Curry broth with noodles and chicken Tobiko Rice - The best you’ll ever have! Basil Ice-cream - Fresh and not too sweet
