Several of their main menu items had slight recipe changes made to them leaving them worse. The Kalua Pork Sandwich, which I used to order religiously, comes now topped with dry, under sauced meat and a stale bun. The Spam Musubi used to be served the traditional style and it was changed to a deep fried disaster with extra, unnecessary added ingredients. The menu and recipes used to be perfect and they were all changed to lesser versions which really sucks becuase it's no longer worth $15 a plate here now.

The food was well-prepared and the staff was extremely friendly. I especially enjoyed the Kalua pork tacos. For appetizers, you can choose four options and create your own culinary adventure. I will definitely return to this mini oasis in Astoria.

I tried the breakfast tacos and enjoyed them. They also offer bottomless mimosas and a variety of other food options. I included photos of the dishes my table ordered, including two separate vegetarian dumpling dishes.

The food is tapa sized, so make sure to order a few dishes if you want to share. Some of my favorites would be coconutshrimp and pork belly bun. The chill environment is definitely good for dates, but otherwise nothing special.
