"This was the most delicious meal ive had in a long time. The tempura was perfectly crispy and crunchy and the spicy Tonkotsu Ramen had so much flavor and was very filling. The egg and pork were so tender they melted in my mouth. "
"General tsos chicken is fine. The ramen was very disappointing, it was very bland and the chicken did not impress, slightly rubbery. I ordered it spicy and there was to no flavor over all, even the kimchi lacked flavor. Also small portion of everything in the dish and only half an egg. Not worth the price & surprised how bland the ramen is at this place."

"I got the ramen with tonkotsu broth. I also added cilantro, corn, and carrots. This is my first ramen experience and my first time eating at this restaurant, and it certainly did not disappoint. The broth came separately (though I'm not sure if that's normal or just when to go), and the corn and carrots came in the broth. I poured it into the bowl with the noodles. The pork was delicious, and the broth was perfect. I barely ate half because it was so filling and comforting. But it was so good "
"We frequently order from Som Za, and it is always wonderful. Comes hot with very fresh ingredients, the portions are large, and the flavors are amazing. From a spicy Plik Pow, to a milder but still very flavorful Mix Veggies. Be warned extra spicy is the real deal! I've yet to try anything from the menu I have not liked. By far the best Thai I've had in the area. Will definitely order again. And again. And again!"

"Had this spot for the first time and wow! Delicious and so flavorful. Definitely try the seasonal menu.. I grabbed the curry chicken with naan and my kid had the N6. Wonton in Beef Broth which had a few bok choy and she enjoyed. I was happy that she was happy with the new pick up. Quick service too! "
"Real food with complex flavors. Good portions too. Plenty for leftovers. Wish I had more buns though haha. The dumplings smell so good. Like the type of food you have to stop to smell if you were passing by. Taste as good as they smell. The lamb soup has such a pleasant cilantro aroma and the lamb meat was incredibly tender and flavorful. Rich flavorful broth without being greasy. The chili oil is not very spicy but very tasty regardless. Overall 10/10 for both the soup and the dumplings. Can't wait to try more dishes."

"How is it possible for someone to make wonton soup incorrectly? With just two dumplings, it tasted like water. There was not a single piece of chicken in the extra money I paid for it. I also placed an order for organge chicken. It should not be sweet like dessert. I will never order again."
