Description



Dining here is straightforward, built around customizable combo sets that pair chicken with a side and a drink. The experience comes with a few caveats: while the meat is otherwise fall-off-the-bone tender, the chicken breast frequently runs dry. The herbal seasoning also divides opinion, leaning medicinal for some. Side dishes have distinct personalities, from cucumbers tasting heavily of sesame oil to pineapple fried rice prepared with sticky rice. With a tiny interior that makes maneuvering tight, it is best approached as a simple, value-driven stop.
