High Side

Nice small cozy vibes, staff was friendly & attentative and food was delicious.I ordered the fried chicken bao which was pretty crispy. I also got the spicy Dan Dan noodles with braised pork belly. It was very flavorful and started to get a bit more spicy over time but still delicious! The lemongrass chicken over rice had a nice lemongrass flavor that went well with the pickled cucumbers.

3.5/5!Best part of this was how comforting and cozy it the ambience was with music just loud enough to fill in the silence while being able to hear the other person. I love the large selection of plates available from various Asian countries. Service was great and quick.The food is good, but I felt that each plate was lacking something. I've never had popcorn chicken were garlic was garnished outside of it and there was a large lack of basil and I can say I wouldn't want that again. I think the beef inside the pancake was good but the scallion pancake itself lacked the crispy and flavor to complete it. The Zhe Jiang noodles I have little complaint about the flavor. I just wish it were in a bigger bowl that would allow for mixing, especially since most of the sauce condensed to the bottom of the bowl, leaving the noodles at the top flavorless.

Hole in wall Taiwanese fusion style eatery. I love the minced pork w rice and their wide array of local brews.Friendly service, reasonable prices. Parking available behind the restaurant or you can park in the lot and walk.

Looooooovvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Really good pork belly buns and really enjoyed the fried chicken. Portions were great. The staff was really nice, it's a nice intimate space. I took our waitresses recommendations and we were definitely happy!

Bold flavors, despite the small size of the restaurant. I enjoy the appetizers here , where I get the Dumplings and the Tornado Fries. I also like the fried rice if you're looking for an entree. Good spot.

Wow what a find . Small restaurant great food .My daughter hosted her baby shower here . Their Bao Buns super tasty ,popcorn chicken so yummy , Fried rice and Noodles were too good .Their dumplings and spiral French fries delicious. Meat in a skewer were soft and tender. Drinks were wine and beer was good too .

Thank you thank you to the wonderful & energetic staff for providing such amazing service!! Despite the relatively small size of the restaurant, the food really delivers hugely on flavor and variety. We loved everything we tried, especially the fried lemongrass chicken. My personal favorite was the pork and rice - a yummy Taiwanese classic. Overall, this was a great, casual place to eat good food and enjoy good beer (there were families there as well so it's still a family friendly place)! Parking is difficult (small lot behind the restaurant that's easy to miss), so you're better off finding parking in one of the nearby structures.

Service staff is great, super friendly and responsive. Food is awesome and authentic Taiwanese for sure. Ambience is a plus for the boys because they get to watch the football game while they enjoy the food.

Winning combination in Fairfax: Asian street food and craft beer......except my table ordered cider. We shared the Double Haul and Raspberries & Brett, the only two options for cider. Both were distinct enough in flavor for us to enjoy. Overall, you will see a nice selection of beers from Virginia and elsewhere. For food, we got the Lemongrass Fried Chicken over Rice and the Zha Jiang Noodles from the Big Plates side. It was definitely a hard choice for us to narrow down from the menu, but we were happy with both dishes and the portions. The table service was very welcoming, friendly, and patient when we could not decide what to order. We came in for Sunday lunch and it wasn't too busy. It's very casual and a good place to hang out with friends. It's just a pain that it's so far out in Virginia for me.

First of all I really wanted to give the place another try because the owner was so responsive via my Yelp review. The beer selection was great and the juicy tiles was refreshing. The service again was TOP NOTCH. I was here on 1/13/23 at 8 pm and the staff were super helpful and efficient. The food was a lot better than when I first tried it. I really enjoyed the Dan bung (but with a cheesy twist), the fried chicken was garlicky goodness, the Zhang jiang main had a great, light flavor, and of course the potstickers were a star. Again, the beers are extremely expensive. Would I go back? Sure. Just for the staff and service alone. I see they attempted to have sound dampeners in their dining space but it does get very very very loud just with people talking.
