Great Taiwanese food! I had a dinner date with a girlfriend here. The restaurant is small. Luckily they were not busy when we arrived and we were immediately sat at a table. Employees were all super friendly and helpful. I tried the Beef Noodle Soup and Lychee Colada. Both were super delicious!

Wanted to grab some food in Kearny Mesa and this places seemed like it would be a good spot. We walked in on a Sunday after noon with a 30 minute wait for 2 people. We got the beef noodle soup and the popcorn chicken. The beef noodle soup was amazing. The broth was so flavorful and the noodles were bouncy. The chicken wasn't dry either and came with a spicy sauce on the side that we enjoyed. Not the best we've had for both but definitely hit the spot for what we were looking for. Food took a while to come out but they came out hot. Food: 7.9/10 Service: 8/10 Ambience: 7.9/10

We are visiting San Diego and decided on a late lunch here because we've never had Taiwanese food and it was close to where we were. I'm so glad we tried it! We just happened to get here right on time for happy hour. We got the beef roll, chili wontons, popcorn chicken and the sesame noodles with beef. The beef roll was outstanding. Everything was absolutely delicious. Nicole was attentive and helpful. The food came very fast. I also tried the mango cocktail. I liked it! Such an interesting flavor combo. I'd definitely come back and recommend it!

Wonderful ambiance and cozy vibes! Pork over rice was on the saltier side, but great overall. Pork over (wavy) noodles was delicious. Popcorn chicken could've been better, but still went well with any leftover noodles/rice :) Service was good and efficient.

Service was great speedy! Shawn took great care of us and was super attentive. ITEMS WE HAD: 1. Beef noodle soup: a must when you come here - they offer hot oil on the side to make it spicier if you like that. 2. Chili Wontons: succulent and savory! Chili oil mix is light in spice but still good flavor 3. Beef Rolls: my personal favorite. Crunchy scallion pancake and flavorful beef with cucumber and sauce on the inside So good we finished everything (forgot to take a pic )!! :D Definitely coming back as the weather gets colder

Thanks Paige and Julian for a great first dinner in San Diego!

A great find!! It's a bar-like restaurant with some tables. They have a simple and easy-to-read menu, where you aren't overwhelmed with a lot of things. The food quality is pretty good and everything is made fresh upon ordering. They give you a QR code for the menu and to pay for your meal, so they've everything pretty convenient. Just be warned, good luck with parking. Convoy street on a weekend? Parking is scarce.
