This popular pan-Asian BYOB eatery attracts a colorful, diverse crowd of Lakeview loyals who gather here for cheap dates, dinner before a night of bar hopping or just a laidback lunch. A renovation in 2005 added additional seating and atmosphere. The brick-walled dining room is warm and encourages conversation, especially among the large groups of friends who make this a weeknight gathering spot. In the summer, it's large patio-style front windows make it the perfect spot for a solo lunch as you watch the procession of Broadway passersby.
