"I got the bento box with bulgogi, miso soup, California roll, rice, and veggies. I would say this meal was decent but don't go in expecting dishes on par with an actual Asian restaurant."

"I was completely disappointed with this place. We were so excited to try it out. The atmosphere is bright and beautiful. Very nice set up and the decor is cute. It is very pricey for what you get. Being a Pho connoisseur my husband ordered the Pho which was served luke warm! The noodles were all stuck together cause the soup wasn't hot enough. I tried the bulgogi and rice, the rice was crunchy. It was either undercooked or old! The bulgogi had great flavor but was a small portion for the price and was also served just warm. You have to order at the register and your food will be brought to you. Other than that you don't have a server. You also have to fill and refill your own drinks. It's basically restaurant prices for fast food service. I honestly expected higher quality."

"Mixed feelings about the Pho. The soup was not hot enough because the noodles were just breaking up when you tried to mix the soup. Noodles are not supposed to fall apart. Maybe it's just me being critical because I've been eating Pho since 1991. Maybe it was just a bad day for the Cook. What causes the noodles to get stuck together? The second half of the order was the rice and Bulgogi dish with kimchee. The rice was crunchy. I don't think sticky rice is supposed to be crunchy. Overall the food tasted okay but that just means it is edible. Again maybe it was a new Cook being trained."

"This restaurant is located in a casino away from the busy roads of CA. It’s a nice cool area, the drive is scenic. The servers are friendly. You’ll have to park outside (plenty of parking) walk through the casino and enter the restaurant. The servers are very attentive. They don’t have a large menu, but kind of anything for everybody. Very clean place."

"Why the low reviews? The décor is vibrant, food fantastic and service superb! The restaurant is so cute one would think they need table service but I’m not sure if this is what Sycuan was looking for. Ultimately, I want to say it’s somewhat of a quick table service eat fast and go when you please more for the gambler on the go. LOL Pay and order take your number find a seat…. Ordered Wor Wonton (Large) – Delicious with 6 pcs of good size wontons, 3pcs med size shrimp, ton of pork, beef, carrots, mushrooms and bok choy! If this is the base for the pho (which probably is) I can guarantee you the pho here is as bomb! Salt and pepper wings – Cheehoo the salt and pepper wings were a perfect paring with the wor wonton! Came out piping hot and seasoned with perfection. More than enough for two hungry gals, even had left overs!"
