We paid $19 for 5 shrimps and almost no fries (at first it was only 4!! Then they brought a lone shrimp over to make up for it?). It’s simply overpriced for what they serve. The wings were good I guess More

Ordered the lobster roll and there was rarely any lobster in it. Mostly half of bread bun and lots of French fries. The order took more than 30 min. It’s been the worst restaurant I’ve ever been in my whole life. More

Great dive bar with really good food. I got the fish and chips and they were very tasty, fairly priced too. staff was super nice and the ambiance was great. Also shots on the house every once in a while. Kind of annoying having to open the door from the corner but not a deal breaker haha would recommend! More

Surprisingly good food and great service! The yummy noodles and crispy fried rice were delicious! Admittedly, some items are on the pricey side, and unfortunately they still have a limited menu.

I was in town on business and met a friend for an easy bite to eat. This is a gem in the FiDi area. No frills just show up and enjoy the food, a drink and chat with a friend. Service was casual. Our food came out hot and quick. More

Alright, let’s get serious for a second. The shattered door with no handle is one thing, but I’m talking about the homestyle Malaysian kitchen that brews hours long Beef Rendang in the back of this unassuming dive.
You’re never gonna miss when coming here, sometimes packed shoulder to shoulder, other times quiet only to be populated by a few tourists and the family that owns the spot.
Jeff the owner is the nicest guy in town, always making sure everyone is taken care of 😏
10 out of 10.

Fantastic food with great friendly service. These guys are slot of fun and do their best to make everyone happy. The food is incredible as well. The dumplings, ginger wings and yummy noodles were all top notch. Looking forward to making regular visits.

The food is so good. I don’t know where I’d be right now if I didn’t have their fried rice tonight. Order the soup. I know what you’re thinking - “Soup at a bar?” - but it’s THE perfect soup. The wings are phenomenal. The people are so friendly and made us feel at home. If your friends are hyping up this place, believe them. And get another order of fried rice to-go.

This bar should be ashamed to have someone like this behind the counter. The Asian bartender looked us dead in the eye and said, “Are you in the right place?” — as if we didn’t belong there.
Let me be crystal clear: I’m Asian too. And to have another Asian person treat me like I was some kind of intruder was not just insulting — it was sickening. He wasn’t joking. He wasn’t confused. His tone dripped with contempt and superiority, like he thought he was above us.
That’s not attitude — that’s racism. The kind that hides behind a fake smirk and thinks no one will call it out.
He publicly humiliated us, made assumptions based on race, and made it painfully clear that we were not welcome.
The hypocrisy of watching a fellow Asian openly discriminate against another Asian is beyond pathetic. It’s self-hatred and ignorance at its peak.
The management clearly doesn’t care who they hire or how customers are treated. If they allow this kind of behavior to continue, they are complicit.
This wasn’t just “bad service.” It was overt racism, verbal harassment, and complete lack of humanity.
If you’re Asian — or frankly anyone who values dignity — do not step foot in this place. It’s hostile, toxic, and run by people who think it’s acceptable to humiliate customers because of how they look.
This isn’t just a bad bar — it’s a stain on the city.

Loved this dive bar! Adam was a fantastic host and we had a few shots together. Mama's Fried Rice is AMAZING! I will definitely return when I visit NYC again. Getting in was hard because the door does not have a handle/knob. Find the top edge of the door to open it.

This feels like authentic NY, I felt quite unwelcome and got asked for ID even though I’m 48. And that’s why I enjoyed my time here thoroughly and would love to come back when I have more time, no pretentious small talk, it just is what it is, a dive bar to have a few drinks and watch some sport.

Hands down one of the best home style Thai restaurants disguised as a dive bar. Friendly service and if you hang out long enough you’ll get a free shot of whiskey. The ginger wings were cooked to perfection so juicy and tender. … More
