Customer Reviews
Simply wonderful. Delicious food and friendly service in this intimate pork restaurant
Really great meal and friendly service. Nicely prepared pork with a unique style. Got lucky without a reservation but it would probably be safe if you have one.
This amazing restaurant was hard to find, but worth the extra effort of asking help from some locals in the vicinity. We went after the (early) rush on a Tuesday around 8 or 830pm with no reservation and the owner/manager/chef greeted us warmly. We had the place to ourselves. He took great care of the four of us and even managed a little conversation here and there. He is dedicated to great food with simple but refined touches. He has an excellent assortment of drinks (alcoholic and non-) as well. Gorgeous food, but if you are nervous about slightly undercooked pork then either don’t go here or warn him in advance…but I am not sure he will change his slow cooking method. That is probably what makes it so tender and juicy. Great local dining experience!
