    Tried the spicy crispy tuna, lumpia, bulgogi fried rice, and the pancit noodles. All super delicious. The black tea crème brûlée and the matcha cake were also super yummy. Our server Kahlif was really nice and delivered swift attentive service. Can’t wait to go back.

    It was ok. Pretty pricey for the amount of food. I probably won’t return.

    Daniel was our waiter - very attentive and high energy. We were celebrating our daughter’s graduation and he treated her extra special. The food was great especially the Adobo Pork Fried Rice and the walnut Shrimp. Love the ambiance and decor. We will Definitely go back. Nice to have a delicious and unique option in downtown Aurora!

    The food was great, we enjoyed our meal. It's pretty loud inside, a lot of hardscapes. Made it difficult to hear each other and our server. Having said that, the food came out quick and was very good. Didn't like that we had to order from a QR menu on my phone, real menus should be offered. Not the end of the world, but an instant sense of annoyance was felt upon being seated.

    I took my daughters for a night out and we all loved it. They loved their Boba tea and we thoroughly enjoyed our maki rolls. The summer roll was my favorite .
