  • Casual BYO Convenience and Value

    A hospitable BYO policy with minimal corkage fees pairs with generous portions for an exceptionally budget-friendly group dinner.

    Only a few dollars corkage fee for BYO. We shared a few entrees, and ordered a pad Thai with tofu and a green curry with “chick’n”. Everything was absolutely delicious and we had tons of leftovers.
