East Village Asian Diner

Great food and service. Small dining area so would get reservations at peak times

We walked in here on a whim on a Saturday night and got a table right away. Within 15 minutes they were then on a wait. The service was great and the hot stone pots were amazing! Hot until the last bite.

East village is my favorite place in town! All of the food is delicious my favorite dish is the pork monk bowl

Karelly was our server and she was excellent. She asked us if it was our first time there, it was. Then she explained the Monk Bowl to us and how to order it. She took her time and answered every question we had and made it easy for us to understand. The food was really really good! The portions are huge, I do mean huge. You will be taking some home with you. The two sauces on the table were very tasty. One of them was sweet n spicy and the other was soy sauce plus their extra flair to it. We also had the pork and shrimp pot stickers. These were excellent as well as everything else. The soy type sauce used with the pot stickers was very yummy. I forgot to take before pictures but here's what it looked like after we dug in. Words alone cannot describe how much we enjoyed this place. We will be back. Bobbi Jo and Jeff Vegetarian options: You can basically make everything vegetarian. They also have gluten free options as well. Kid-friendliness: There were plenty of kids there and they do offer kids portions from what I saw the kids eating.

Great authentic hotpot’s!

Kinda bougie. The waitress apologized for my presence to other customers almost immediately. Cuz I am homeless in a wheelchair living on the street at the moment. Then, after I ordered egg fried rice and paid seven dollars for. I got something that could only be described as the laziest dish ever. The only things in the rice were oil, egg and a ridiculous amount of carrot "in half chunks". Not even julien carrots. I could have made better fried rice with a concussion. Sucks, cuz i actually like this place. It was like I wasn't even important enough to get a plate made with any sort of pride.

One of my favorite meals during our visit to SD area. My husband got the peanut Thai noodles with shrimp added and I got the chicken teriyaki with an over medium egg. Large portions, phenomenal food, and very prompt and helpful service. We will definitely be back when we are in the area again!
