    Place had a very weird, unpleasant smell when I walked in. Maybe something similar to a dirty mop being used to clean. I almost walked out but decided to try it anyway. Food was good. Service was a bit slow. Had to get the servers attention cause he was chatting with other workers and on his cellphone. If I go back Ill see if they can seat me further back because that smell really through me off.

    Food was just “OK.” The dish we had (fried rice) was very salty and had way too much garlic in it. Service was slow and it was very noisy.

    Our server was the only one working and when I tell you she went above and beyond to making our experience memorable. From a server, bartender, bus boy and more, she was amazing and I will definitely be back with her soon. Her vibe and work ethic is amazing! Great conversation, great vibes, amazing food and drinks but most of all she made our experience the best.

    We had no experience. It was closed and no one notified us. We found out when we got there and they were closed. We ended up Dallas BBQ. Someone should have called and told us.
