⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Megalingam Thiruvarangam
Really enjoyed the food here! Everything we tried was tasty — especially the fried dumplings, soup, and shrimp dish. The flavors were great and the portions were just right. There are so many options on the menu, it’s fun to explore and mix things up. Definitely planning to come back to try more next time. The iced tea was surprisingly good too — nice and refreshing. The place had a relaxed vibe and the staff were friendly, which made the experience even better.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Frank D.
Great Food. Wide selection, served Hit and Fresh. You pick your Meats, then Veggies, Add an egg or two, then Sauce. Pick your Starch or not if your on Keto. Will Return and Recommend . Approx $16 per bowl. Not all you can eat tho. Pro tip _ smash your ingredients down to get more on Top.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Jonathan C
I went here with my son and we had good meals. You create your own stir fry. They have lots of great protein, vegetable, and sauce options. The service was great, with lots of smiles and energy. I'm glad we went here!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Solanine Eustoma
This place was very busy when we went with the line going out the door, but the service was very graceful about it. You go along the counter and scoop what you want into a bowl (you will be charged by weight if you overfill it), tell them what kind of base starch you would like and then wait for them to cook it. There were disposable gloves we could use with the tongs. All of the sauces are very delicious. Because it is so popular, maybe making a reservation in advance is wise.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Jermaine Madding
Had a great time there and the food was fresh and delicious 😋. Will definitely be stopping bye and grabbing some on the way to work.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Dana M.
We love eating here! We love how you can customize your food by picking from a wide variety of proteins, veggies, sauces and spices. Great prices as well!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Carol Khoury
They have so many options here. It’s sooo good. Honestly one of the best restaurants in Chattanooga. They give two yum yum sauce to go and a fortune cookie. Love that they have gloves to wear at the buffet. Wish the bowls were more dry when you pick them up from the buffet, kind of find that disgusting. If you eat in they offer salad or soup with your main course. You pick your meat first, then the veggies, fruit, eggs, then pick your sauce in a separate ramakan, then they ask if you want noodles or rice. After that it’s cooked and you are given a # for your dish. Overall this food is devinely delicious. Definitely recommend. PS not sure how come sometimes they ask when you are dining in if you want soup or salad with your stir fry, but they didn’t ask last time.
