    Awesome food - luckily avoided a long line

    Was able to be top 4 in line by signing up on the book around noon. Would not be worth it if I had to wait an hour, as the head chef cooks the dishes herself (clear bottleneck for speed of service). That being said,...More

    Excellent food

    We booked ahead via email which would be what we would recommend doing. When we got there, there was a lineup outside but we were ushered in. So worth it. The drunken noodles were the best I ever had and the crab omelet, while expensive,...More

    Fantastic!

    Long line but it’s worth the hype. Egg omelette is really good. It is totally worth visiting if you’re around the area!

    Highlight of our trip

    The rules are simple. You email a few weeks in advance to make a reservation (give wide availability windows). You turn up at the allocated time and wait, possibly half an hour to get your table and another 45 minutes to get your food. You...More

    NOT WORTH THE WAIT. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

    I don't understand why they have such a high rating. The omelet is full of crab meat, they have credit for that but to me and my husband, I don't think it worth 2 hours of waiting. The tom yum soup is the worse. And...More
