Nice staff and awesome food. The Latin/Asian fusion totally works. The Asian paella is fantastic! Spicy and complex flavor. They even gave us free sweet potato fries! Definitely recommend!
They might be pillowy and light, but they are huge on flavor!. These are lovely, light, pillowy puffs of stark-white dough, surrounding some amazingly-seasoned meats and toppings.The wonderfully-stuffed bacos are their signature dish – think Wow Boa dumplings shaped like tacos- and they are filled with flavors like pork carnitas ($2.75/baco), Thai Chicken Curry ($2.75), Miso Braised Beef Short Ribs with pineapple salsa ($3.50) and, my favorite, Soy Ginger Tofu ($2.75).But dont stop there! The Miso Braised Short Ribs also come in a huge bowl of rice ($11) and as a sandwich known as Domo Arigato, featuring a mound of perfectly-braised meat on a large French baguette.Other options include a Pork Ramen Soup ($4.70 half bowl, $8.75 full bowl) that is wickedly-spicy, but not in a heat-ful, hurt-ful way. There are several salads as well, including Basil Chicken on romaine ($7) and a gorgeous Beet Salad ($5) that makes an awesome side to any meal.Finally, their Curry Sweet Potato Fries rival the famous D4 Irish Pubs offering as a side dish they are like nothing youve ever tried, with almost a dessert-like quality. A $3 half/$5 full basket comes topped with queso fresco and a curry aioli. The place is a tad small and a line forms out the door shortly after 12:15pm – plan on dropping in between 11:30 and noon. If there are no seats available, simply walk across the street to one of the local plazas.
Great name; decent bacos. I liked the Taiwanese-style, guabao-esque merging of baozi and tacos, and the short rib, carnitas and curry fillings were good (not great, but good), but I think it had more novelty than culinary value. I’d rather just have a good baozi or taco, instead.Still, if I worked around the corner, I’d probably be a regular.
