    A great little spot with excellent attention to detail and bold flavors! I was sad to see that they were out of some of their menu items that I had come to try, but this also speaks to the restaurant’s popularity.

    My advice is to order as many appetizers and sides on your first time (whatever you do don't miss out on garlic noodles) Kudos to the Chef - all menu items, different as they seem, are very complimentary to each other. Also, best bet is to Uber as parking is limited.

    The space was/is beautiful, and the food, drinks, and atmosphere were all simply amazing. My partner and I just got married the day before we had our dinner reservation at Mot Hai Ba, and they were kind/generous enough to give us a complimentary glass of champagne to celebrate our special life event. And every single employee we saw in passing and/or walked told us congratulations. So, by the way we left, it felt like the entire staff there knew we had just gotten married, and the congratulations kept going all the way until we were walking out the door. So nice and so thoughtful. Plus, just to reiterate, the food was INCREDIBLE. Will definitely go back again and again. Love, love, love this place.

    The food and flavors were unique and wonderful. Service was great and they were so accommodating with our table's casual sharing of all the dishes - making a great evening.

    Super creative food, excellent staff, intriguing and well-paires wine list. Best neighborhood gem in Dallas that we freely share those not fortunate enough to live in Lakewood, Dallas or even Texas. Great service as well

    LOVED. Food and service were top notch. Did not love the patio, table on slope, was really loud and just not the vibe I wanted. Will make sure to only do inside ressies from now on.
