I placed a very very last minute grub hub order from this establishment yesterday night. It has been so hard finding Asian cuisine that is also gluten free because many dishes use soy sauce or other wheat products. I fell in love with the gf spring rolls and the gf Kung pao chicken and gf fried rice. It even came with a gf soy sauce packet. I don't eat gluten free for fun, it's a life style changed I had to make for my health. While I order online this time to be delivered i have picked up before and found that I loved the parking and the outside area of this establishment. The inside has nice seating and a more open floor kind of plan which is super convenient. I haven't tried many of their dishes but if you need something gluten free, I'd give it a try.

This review is more focused on the food itself as I picked it up to go. The ordering and pick up process was fine. The food was terrible. Thai curries were watery, pepper forward, and bland. No thai flavors came through just pepper, old vegetables and watery curry base. That goes for both we ordered. Just terrible. My wife ordered pad Thai, this also had water in the bottom of the to go plate. Bland and basically tasteless. I already knew this was place was a problem as they claim to do 3 countries cuisines. That typically means they will be sub par or marginal at all of them. This was def the case. Not to mention we paid 80 bucks for 3 entree's and an app which was also terrible. Worst asian food I have had to date in the TC. Do not bother coming here.

We used to go to the Maplewood location quite often when it was still open but have only been to the Oakdale location twice. Her stuff is way way overpriced! Every little thing you have to pay an extra fee for which is ridiculous. When we went the other day after all the extra fees (plus the extra fee for using a credit card) our meal cost over $90. What we got was two glasses of lemon ginger tea, 4 egg rolls (two pork and two veggie), a tuna sushi roll, a vegetable sushi roll, a sweet potato sushi roll (made with Japanese sweet potatoes), pork egg foo young with fried rice and a half order of coconut curry with tofu. The Pork and the tofu each cost us an extra 4 dollars. We also had to pay 3 extra dollars to switch from white rice to fried rice and $2 extra for two sides of spicy mayo (which wasn't even spicy). That's a total of $13 extra for things that should not be that much of an up charge. Not to mention the $2 extra for using a credit card. The food is not worth the prices they are asking for and this time they had a $8000 robot deliver our food when there was only one other person in the restaurant. No wonder they have such high prices!!! We will not be back as nothing is great except the egg rolls, the prices are outrageous and the Two times I've asked for my food spicy they ignored me and didn't put in any spice. There are a lot better Asian restaurants out there where you get more food, with good quality with way cheaper prices!

In the area and wanted Chinese. Well this is an Asian mix and you'll find what you are in the mood for. I got the pork egg foo young. Most are very similar, but you can't compare it to anything. The sauce is so unique. First it is very dark brown in color with a sweet taste to it. Second the preparation is the egg patty is set then the sliced pork pieces are on top smothered in the delicious gravy. 3 huge pieces. I got the lunch special that came with a Vietnamese eggroll, also good. Basil got the sesame chicken that I enjoyed my bite. I had a sip of his iced tea and I'll get that next time. We were almost tricked looking at the menu. Looked at the front and turned it over with a bunch of stuff on the back. Only to discover there was a full menu in the middle that we didn't realize opened. You can tell there's lots of regulars here.

The restaurant atmosphere is updated, bright and welcoming. The menu offers so much variety: Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese. The pho is top notch. The ramen was hearty and tasty. The chicken curry was sweet and just right. The service was fast, polite, and they even used a robot to deliver some items.

2.5/5The flavors have changed on the stir fry end and they are not good. Mild is too spicy and the vegetables are not cooked well. The bubble "tea" is good but it's more of a smoothie and not your typical tapioca pearls. The mango spring rolls are usually good but not always fresh.

I used to go to this restaurant about every other week because there are not that many places in this area that have vegan options. The waiter is oftentimes rude to us because he is overwhelmed. It's usually just him and a robot no matter how busy the restaurant gets. One time, he was especially rude to my husband and me and even tho we still gave him a 20% tip at the end because we felt bad for him, we decided that was the last time we would go there. He said he was stressed because another table was being indecisive, but it was a bad excuse to be so rude to us. I hope this restaurant would consider hiring more wait staff to help this man out so that he is not so overwhelmed. A robot can only assist so much. By cutting costs, you're compromising on customer service. Also, please stop having the same instrumental song play on repeat so loud. It's very distracting.

I love the food here! The pho here is so good and the service is great. The broth is very flavorful as is and doesn't need anything added at all.10 of 10 would recommend.

Terrible service. We ordered by phone and we're told it would be ready in 30 minutes. Got there 30 minutes later and they hadn't even started our order. Waited for 10 minutes and then they told us it was going to be another 45 mins
