Gluten and dairy free – everything! What a great find for those who eat with celiacs. Here you do not have to give up on flavor to enjoy a great meal! We had one teriyaki bowl, one make your own with crispy tofu, chicken tacos, potstickers, and plantain chips with mango salsa. Everything was fantastic!

If missing key ingredients, uncooked food, and making you ill is your jam, go to this place. I swear I am having the worst luck with the food in Massachusetts! Excited to leave.

Disappointing. Ordered the Market Noodles. Lacking in flavor. The carrots were brown/oxidized. The “crispy” tofu was soft, mushy and had a crumbly batter on it that was off-putting. Still, edible and other veggies were fresh.

This place is usually great service and great food for a good price. But today was terrible. We ordered ahead but still ended up waiting 30 minutes when we arrived. It took 45 minutes from order to getting our food. The guy taking our order was maskless (though the establishment requires mask from customers) and not courteous either. Then we got home and my wife spit out a big chunk of saran wrap that had been in the food. yuck.

Awesome fast-casual bowl place with lots of Asian-inspired ingredients and sauces. Great portion size for the price range, fast and easy pickup service. A great new addition to the restaurants in Davis Sq.

Ordered takeout for the first time tonight after thinking about trying this place out for a while. Honestly I was not super impressed by their food – I ordered a rice noodle dish and it was a smaller portion than expected given the price tag. Other BYO noodle/salad places in Boston give much more food at the same price point. The dish itself wasn’t bad, it was just pretty bland and the sauce was watery. I ordered sweet chili sauce as a garnish and they added way too much to the dish so I had to try and wipe some of it off before eating. They also added vegetables to my order that I did not request.
