Tongue in Cheek

We have found our new "take friends to dinner here" spot! This food was a culinary journey. And our server was so knowledgeable and friendly, he guided us through recommendations and made us feel so welcome. We had elevated food while still feeling very comfy. I highly recommend trying all of the 4 teaser options. They are all one bite phenomenons of flavor. The chef got very imaginative with these flavors and will make anyone who sees food as a journey very excited! After reading reviews, we prioritized braised pork and ended up having it three different ways! As the East Fried Best (teaser), here comes Johnnie, and pork belly ramen! All of them were delicious. The use of sauce, herbs, and texture will leave you feeling like Remy in Ratatouille, shooting fireworks and lightning sizzles on your taste buds. Vegetarian options: They always have a Vegasm menu item, which is a rotating vegan meal option, today's was a Korean rice cake and I wish I remembered the epic toppings and mix ins b

Fantastic food, wonderful service, great cocktails. The vegetarian and vegan options are out of this world. Staff is kind, attentive, and helpful. We had a burger (very good) and vegasm for a dichotomy of dishes. The cucumber Thai salad started things off with fresh deliciousness. We finished with the berry dessert which was sweet, tart and light with edible flowers. I recommend this place to those who are adventurous and looking for fantastic food. The wall art can get a bit dilettante and the neighborhood presents some urban challenges. I recommend visiting during the daylight if you don’t want to experience the nighttime ambiance the area has to offer. Parking can be tricky at times. For sure put this place on your list, nearly a 5.

Amazing restaurant! I was blown away by how flavorful every dish was. The creative “teasers” on the menu were especially fun and festive. I really appreciated the excellent vegan options too. The Vegasm was delicious! Elegant yet cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended!
