I found the food here really good! Came in for lunch and the main things on the menu were rice+meat+vegetable. We had the 24 hour pork belly, the pork sausage, and the beef short ribs. All were very rich and flavorful. Delicious! We added the egg on top which was nice and runny (*warning* for those who don't like runny eggs).
Also tried the condensed milk soft serve cone and the coconut rice pudding. The rice pudding was different, but very good with a rich coconut flavor and banana nut topping.
service was fast and friendly
Slightly on the pricier end for lunch (spent about $12 per person) but definitely worth it for the quality of the food! Will stop by again if I'm in the area!
Finally got to try this place! I've been wanting to come here for a while! It's best to go with a big group to be able to try a bunch of different things. It's small plates, so you can get a lot of dishes - we got a bunch! Nice to try a variety of tastes, textures and flavors. Everything was very flavorful. My faves were the Crispy Duck Leg (special) - I loved the basil caramel; the Satay Beef Short Ribs - well-seasoned, and the peanut satay was good and not overly sweet; and the Fried Chicken - which was reminiscent of Japanese kara age (I recommend getting the sauce on the side for best flavor). But everything was good!
I think I found my new favorite Asian fusion lunch spot. My coworker and I shared the blistered green beans, which contained a nice little kick. I had the gai yang, which looked, smelled, and tasted amazing. Great grill marks on the chicken, which was moist with the crispy skin. The mint leaves that came with the dish acted as a nice palate refresher.
One of my favorite restaurants. Great quality and skews more authentic. I love almost all the dishes but my go to here is the fried chicken with green papaya salad and some sticky rice. Start it with some beer nuts and a dark beer lao. BOOM
A very laid back and fantastic Southeast Asian "street food" restaurant, though I would hardly describe the quality as "street" anything. The chefs know how to play with seasonal ingredients, providing a varied and fresh menu that will make you come back again and again. They are definitely known for their pork belly rice bowl, but I find their entire menu to be extremely polished and tasty.
Linden St. Brewery brews a beer only for them called Supafly. It is a rice beer, packed with citrusy and crisp flavor, though lacks nearly all carbonation. It pairs quite nicely with this genre of food.
Make sure to come early, as there is often a line.

Blistered Green Beans, Our Khao Mun Gai (the chicken fat rice had option of egg on top YUM), Satay Beef Short Ribs, Gai Thot, Seen Ping, Jasmine & Sticky rice.
For three people was enough and then some leftover. The server\s were very gracious and the prices were reasonable. The place is clean and the wait wasn't too long at all, even for a Friday evening. I'll definitely recommend to friends when they visit Oakland and I'm very grateful to my local peeps for bringing me!
