Could not recommend this place enough! We shared three dishes, the Hot Honey Sliders, the Street Tacos, and the Kimchi Fried Rice. All of them were delicious, the hot honey sliders had a wonderful flavor profile, each bite was nice and flavorful without too many things going on. The breading on the chicken was done in house and was spiced very well, the crunch of the kimchi was great, and the flavors of the sauces blended in perfectly. The buns held up to everything happening and did not fall apart. The bulgogi beef in the street tacos was very well done with some very excellent flavor, the crunch provided from the slaw and the flavor from the cheese was a perfect compliment to the bulgogi without being overpowering at all. The kimchi fried rice was very tasty, I think maybe the spam we ad

The Night Owl is top tier Asian fusion that knows their craft. Explore the diverse menu and get out of your food lane with a Bahn-mi sandwich or Coconut curry ramyen. Service is welcoming and you’ll leave happy!

We ordered the sweet potato noodles with beef bulgogi - awesome! We recommend the beef bulgogi addition. Service was great, atmosphere stylish rustic. We give the atmosphere 4 stars because we sat in the booth area. The tall wooden booths capture the music in a very bassy and loud way. Next time we’ll try to choose a table in the open dining area. Great evening anyway! Thank you Night Owl 🦉

Amazing tasty, interesting food. Very cool design, responsive staff and 100% worth a visit again! Small plates are not small at all! 4 double Street tacos, huge bowl of ramen, kimchi is a total good surprise!

★★★★★ 5.0 Ruth Painter · Feb 2025

This place lives up to its 10 ⭐️ rating! We tried the Hot Honey Sliders, the soy garlic flavored chicken wings, and the potato noodles with cucumber and pickled ginger. The homemade kimchee with the honey sriracha sauce in the sliders is the perfect sweet to spicy ratio. And the minced dill (I think) in the house made ranch for dipping the soy garlic wings in is an absolute taste bud delightful surprise. The noodle salad was cool and refreshing and an excellent balance to the flavor explosion of the other 2 dishes. Highly recommend this place! And if they still have the Matcha Pandan Sour Mocktail on the menu YOU MUST try it! It would be a massive mistake not to. This is my new FAVORITE restaurant!
