Customer Reviews
Chris was super kind and the food was fantastic. You can tell that she has passion for what she does. There are only two tables inside her restaurant, so you might want to opt for takeout. The portion sizes are pretty hefty (my photos were taken after we started eating - I apologize). It’s a one woman show, so patience is important - but the wait is worth it!! Very flavorful, very fresh.
A cute little place to have a delicious veggie fried rice and noodles. Definitely recommended for your veggie/vegan stop near Massanutten resort! May have limited spaces to sit.
Our party of five was craving sustenance after hiking that morning and Google Maps revealed this tiny little spot to be one of the closest options. Couldn't be more glad we stopped! The space is teensy, but as the only patrons we managed comfortably around the one back table within the restaurant. Our server was also the cook, a truly remarkable one-woman show who had our food to us relatively quickly considering she was the only employee, but not so fast as to suggest re-heated or pre-packaged meals (it felt like the majority of our food was being made to order). She was otherwise friendly but left us to our own devices when pertinent (a real pro!). Every single thing we ordered was fabulous: tofu lettuce wraps, tofu rice entree, a tofu bahn mi and then (one of the specials) birria ram
The food here is fresh, fun, tasty and delicious. It's a tiny place that packs a punch in your foodie face! Chef Chris hales from Vietnam. Her personality and friendliness will make her home countrymen proud. Did I mention that her cooking is fantastic?! Don't hesitate to stop in for a delicious meal when you're in town.
The woman working was incredibly nice and welcoming. She was handling everything on her own between taking orders, cooking, and serving. The food took a little while, but I appreciated her effort and patience. The ambiance is a little unusual. Inside, there are just two small tables that feel a bit cramped, while outside there are four more communal-style tables. Definitely more of a casual, quick-bite setup than a linger-and-dine atmosphere. As for the food: • Edamame – Tasty, though I would’ve liked a bit more salt or some kind of sauce to elevate it. • Shrimp spring rolls – Solid and fresh, with a nice peanut dipping sauce. • Chicken Banh Mi – Just okay for me. The bread was on the soft side (I prefer a crustier French roll), but the mayo and veggies were enjoyable. The chicken was te
