The Write-Up

The full story

Fast-casual Pan-Asian on South Orange Avenue, built for the group that cannot agree on one cuisine. Build your own poke, order the drunken noodles or chicken curry, or go for signature rolls like the Mt. Fuji and the Miami, then finish with boba under ube cold foam. Guests call it super fresh and packed with flavor, with quick service and lines that move; it is a workday staple, not a special-occasion room.

Our honest take

Guests give this the softest score in this set, and the honest read is convenience over destination. It solves the group that cannot agree on one cuisine, quickly and downtown. Set expectations at a solid workday lunch and it does its job; nobody should book it as the special occasion.
