Creative Asian-Latin fusion with standout pho burritos and strong drinks in a casual bar setting, but service inconsistency can sour visits.
Restaurant Summary
On Santa Fe, the room feels like a gallery-adjacent hangout with murals, strong drinks, and a lively bar at its core. Service swings from wonderfully attentive to stretched-thin when one person runs the floor, but many guests still note warm bartender energy. A diner summed it up: "Came for a quick bite and stayed longer than planned." The cooking is playful and fearless: think a pho burrito perfumed with basil and hoisin, furikake-dusted fries, and Korean BBQ folded into tacos and bowls. This is fusion in the fun sense—bold sauces, texture contrasts, and big portions at approachable prices. When the kitchen hits, it really hits; occasional misses like mushy ramen or overcooked tuna do happen, especially on busy nights. Families can do well here thanks to fries, quesadillas, simple tacos, and sweet finishes like churros or the Twig and Berry. There is no formal kids menu, but the casual bar setup and shareable plates keep things easy. If your crew prefers plain flavors, note that many dishes lean saucy and punchy; still, you can steer toward straightforward tacos and fries for safer choices.
