The friendly staff, affordable prices, and fantastic food really make this restaurant top notch. We love it for take out and bustling lunch time rush (allow for extra time, your food may take longer than expected).

We love this place for Gluten friendly and family friendly take out. My son is in love with their dumplings and I highly recommend their sweet potato noodles. Prices are incredibly affordable for Boulder and service is quick, friendly, and on-point every time.

Drinks & Nightlife

Excellent for late night drinks past 10pm. Cocktail recommendation: Nah-imastay. Slightly sweet; perfect for beginners and anyone looking to shy away from ordering the usual.
