Description




The kitchen turns out dishes quickly, making it a reliable stop for a quick bite. Diners report a generous hand with peppercorns that adds a floral bite to the meal, though the default spice level leans mild. If you want the signature numbing heat, it is best to ask for extra spicy. Standouts include the dry-fried pork intestines, prepped to keep their chewy, non-greasy texture, and a refreshing cucumber appetizer. Service is notably friendly and helpful with menu navigation, though you should keep an eye on your receipt, as gratuity may be automatically included in the bill.
