    We took my mother-in-law here for her 92nd birthday yesterday. Everything was great and all of the staff made sure it was a special occasion and that we felt like family. The food was fantastic- especially the fresh ahi poke, tasty and meaty pork ribs appetizer, japchae, and eggplant with rice cakes. Add blackened ahi to these last 2 entrees. It’s melt in your mouth fantastic. The Thai lime tart was amazingly delicious as was the seasonal pumpkin crunch cake. We can’t wait to go back again soon.
