Mixed feelings. The General Tso's Chicken was excellent and the cashier was friendly, but my side came out cold and they were out of two of the things I wanted to order. Probably worth another try, but not the experience I was hoping for.
Crispy Bar & Grill has become my regular weekday lunch. Consistent quality, generous portions, and the staff has started to recognize me. I usually grab the General Tso's Chicken but I've worked through most of the menu and haven't had a miss yet.
Solid spot. The General Tso's Chicken is a standout — bold flavors, well-seasoned, comes out hot. Took off a star only because the wait at the counter was longer than I expected on a weekday. Still, I'd come back without hesitation.
Great asian fusion option for the area. The Pad Thai was the highlight, big portion and well-priced. Seating is limited so if you come at peak hours plan on takeout. I'll be back.
Brought the family on a Saturday and we all walked out happy. Kids loved their food, my partner ordered the Pho and finished every bite. Prices feel fair for the portions. The dining room was a little loud but that's expected on weekends.
