I’m from Chicago so I feel like when I go to other towns I really seek out food. This was an excellent meal. I had the chicken jerky rice bowl. There was plenty of delicious spice on the jerky with the fresh pineapple and sweet radish too balance it it was a perfect meal. I ate every bite.

The service was incredible! Our server Jordan was awesome and took the time to answer our questions and didn’t make us feel rushed to order. The food was amazing and had the perfect amount of flavor in each bite. Definitely worth it and I highly recommend.
