I ordered the orange chicken special for just under $10. Food was fresh and had alright flavor. Portion was a bit small, and there was a very thick breading layer without much chicken in the center. Service was friendly and professional. I would be curious to try their Vietnamese food to see how it compares.

Do you see the presentation? Even on a unimaginative non busy time Saturday! Curry Rice doesn't look only good but taste good! Very sincere and great service. Love the touch less menu. Very open parking lot. Cash only, no problem. Thank you for having me at your business!

It's unique, very hole in the whole, but very good. My BF and I went there for dinner on a whim, great food, and knowledgeable staff. We got the springrolls. He ordered the B1 beef curry, and I ordered the C2 Chicken with chili / lemongrass. It was amazing, full of flavor.

No longer in business. I arrived last night and found a sign on their door saying they were closed UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE due to a medical emergency, but also thanking Webster Groves for 42 great years. They also included an email address. I emailed while standing there and asked when they might be open again. A few hours later I checked my email and found a response. In short, they are closed permanently. I'm sad. Now I have to locate another place for fried rice and St. Paul Sandwiches. Get well soon Susie.

Came here for take out around March-April 2024 and had to use an ATM to pay in cash. One of the workers at the desk was patient and willing to help me use the machine. Wasn’t the best and wasn’t the worst food. Wished I ordered different verity to give the food a better rating. Noticed there wasn’t a lot of space for dine in. . Chicken and vegetables tasted off. . Rice felt soggy . Food serving was decent.

Amazingly done food, not too sour, salty, spicy, or sweet. Just the right amount. Fair prices and friendly employees. Food is also served very fast.

The staff was nice and welcoming. Very comfortable spot that you can tell has regular customers. The food was pretty good. Service was good as well. Pork fried rice was a little over cooked. Beef and mushrooms' dish was amazing! I was a little disappointed in the lack of chicken in my specific dish. (About 3 oz. which isn't much - I am a bodybuilder and often take my scale to ensure i get in what I am supposed to be eating), but the dish was good. Steamed veggies and chicken. Im sure that's more about survival in this harsh economy, so i am somewhat understanding. I would suggest ordering extra protein if you prefer more protein in your dishes. All in all, it's a very nice and cozy spot to grab some tasty food for dining in or take out. I would return. ** Note that many of the Asian restaurants we frequent usually give about 3 oz of protein, so I usually have to order an extra portion. This seems to be typical.
