Booked a table before a gig in Whelans as it’s next door, was a little unsure at first as it’s new and hadn’t heard much about it but now I hope people don’t find out about this spot because it is a gem! The food was extremely tasty, lots of flavour and excellent choices on the menu. We went for a selection of small plates and rice and noodles and it was delicious. The staff were so friendly, attentive and welcoming. They topped up our drinks with fresh lemon water before we even knew we needed it. 100% recommend this spot, delicious food, great tunes, lovely experience all round.

The best Asian food experience in the town! As an Asian living in Dublin I found it hard to find Asian restaurants which satisfy me. But every food I had here was outstanding, and reasonable price as well! Dumplings were well seasoned, all kinds of meat were so tender and juicy and the staff were friendly as well! Will defo come back
