The Scene – Right by the approach to the Holland Tunnel, a red awning invites passers-by into this sweet, low-frills spot. It has a diner feel, with industrial flooring and yellow tables. Warmly welcoming service makes it comfortable, though the gloomy lighting leaves room for improvement. The young clientele is drawn from neighboring Soho and Chinatown. – – The Food – The Asian comfort food works: There is a touch of attentive flair to everything, even the rich earthy flavor of the Chinese-sausage sticky rice. A terrific Thai-style steak salad is fiery with jalapenos…

great asian food
by yin1104hr
The food was awesome! The steak plate with cilantro sauce was exceptionally delicious and it costs less than $10. The sandwiches were great too. And all the plates were huge, which prevented me from trying the soups and salads...this place was much smaller than I expected, yet cozy and we were able to stay as long as we wished.
- Pros: food, service
- Cons: small
great food and service
by karen213
mooncake foods is a must for great pan asian food. the best dishes are the miso glazed salmon, fish tacos and the steak dish. the lobster mango rolls are great starters. prices are unbeatable and the staff is always very friendly from the waitresses, waiter and the chefs.
Hidden gem

I went in there randomly the other day, even though it was busy, i dont have to wait long to order, a minute after i ordered my drink was on the table and 5 minutes later the food was there! Quality of the food is amazing for its price (sliced steak platter is less than $9!)... I loved it. Now i'm about to order my lunch delivered from there :)
- Pros: Delicious food, very affordable menu, cozy
- Cons: small space but the food makes up to it :)
It's a mooncake!
by amihaly
This place is amazing! And consistent! And always fresh! I order here at least once a week. I always get the same thing, cilantro steak entree. I am not a creature of habit, but I can't get enough of this dish. Almost two years I've been addicted. I dream about it. I am in love with it. To be perfectly honest, I've never once actually step foot in the restaurant. Always ordered in, and always was extermely happy.
- Pros: Delicious, fresh, tasty, inventive, unique, friendly
- Cons: None.
Randomly delicious
by Christiana01
Most random location and random place and random menu. But freakin' terrific. And priced really reasonably. A clean but bare-boned interior, small and diner-esque with a good vibe and a very friendly, welcoming staff. The food is the hero here, and they have the most unique and surprising menu I've seen... and everything on it rocks. Literally everything on the menu is amazing.
