    What a find walking around downtown okc! Walking distance from the botanical gardens. Good elevated fast food. Their bun type sandwiches are what they are known for and the Sriracha chicken one is very food. The beef bulgogi bowl was very good as well. I got extra sambal but did not need it - perfect spice level. Will return with friends for a quick bite before we head out for the night!! Oh and the staff was very helpful and kind - thanks to them 😀

    Definitely recommend ordering from the table so you aren't rushed in the line. The buns here are very soft and sweet. I got the combo deal with the char siu chicken and honey siracha chicken. They were both spicy and flavorful! The order of fries is a big order, enough for 2 people to share. Definitely keeping this place on my favorites for the next visit to the city.

    This place is a hidden gem! First time having buns and had them two days in a row as well as tried the chicken cheesesteak egg roll, with the sweet and sour. that’s a tasty egg roll right there! My favorite buns are the Fried Shrimp bun, Char Siu Chicken bun, Honey Sriracha bun, and the Bang Bang chicken bun! The sauces on these are perfect. No substitutions or altering needed! Will probably order more today!

    This place was packed with business district foodies who clearly know a great place when they taste it. It was recommended to me from a trusted source. I was told to try the bundle with the Honey Sriracha chicken bun and the fried shrimp bun. It also came with fries. All of this food was amazing. The fries are insanely good and have a great seasoning with crunchy outside and soft inside. The buns have soft feel and nonstick. The shrimp has some mayo and spice. I just had regular tea with my meal, but they offer so much more like Vietnamese coffee and Thai tea. Also Asian fruit teas. I definitely need to come back soon and try more of this menu! It is located downtown across from the Colcord Hotel.

    Want to try something new, then come on downtown for a fresh and yummy food experience!! There is so many great choices on the menu, I will be back to try them all! The portions are good, the food is made fresh, and the staff is wonderful/ happy people. The tofu steam bun is full of flavor with the vegetable and sauce, the Sriracha chicken po'boy is tender, juicy, and so flavorful!! Check out the desserts too! Taro cheese cake with cookie crumble or Strawberry crepe with whipped cream will surely make you happy! And don't forget about the Chicken Cheese Steak egg roll! Yes, it's an egg roll!! Light and crispy, filled will chicken and cheese along with a spicy mayo yo dip it in, your tummy will thank you for eating it! Come on down to check this wonderful Cafe out!!!

    I got the buns which I have had before at a different restaurant and they were as good as I expected. My friend got the Chiken rice one and they loved it. I don't recommend the Thai Tea I've had good Thai tea and this wasn't it, it had a funky aftertaste. Fries were good too.

    Delicious!!! Got the 2 bun bundle with pork belly and bangbang chicken. Got the chicken philly egg roll for my side. It was all delicious! They also have a military discount. Will absolutely be back. Went back and got the 3 pork belly bun bundle with an order of the eggrolls-it wasn't a fluke! Just as delicious as the first visit. 3rd trip! Thought I would get something different this time so I got the wagyu burger with a side of togarashi fries. The burger was good but saltier than I like. The fries were good but were too hot for me. I'm sensitive to hot/spicy things and won't get them again. Made my mouth and lips tingle and had me guzzling my drink. That said, most people are going to think they're perfect so as long as you're not as sensitive as me I would recommend them. I think I'll give the banh mi a try next.

    This place is absolutely astounding. We were staying at a hotel in the area and happened across this place and decided to stop in. Super clean, tight, well thought out menu and plenty of amazing drinks. The service was great and friendly, the kitchen was open, and the chef was very kind. We ordered an assortment of buns, Bulgogi patty melt, Birria Banh Mi and. Vietnamese iced coffee. Everything was about as close to perfect as you're going to get. The coffee was darker than I usually get it, but it was so good. The tofu steamed bun was actually the favorite we tried, and the banh mi was very creative and straddled both worlds in a creative and delicious way. Can't say enough about this place. Do yourself a favor and stop by if you're Downtown. 100% worth it for a dining experience punching well beyond its price.

    This place is fantastic! If you're looking for some delicious Asian cuisine that is quick, fresh, and flavorful, then Cafe de L'Asie is the place for you! Everything my friends and I had from here did not disappoint and we'll definitely be coming back! Also News 9 is right next door so you may run into some of the local celebrities like we did during lunch!

    All my kid wanted for their birthday dinner was Chef Vuongs Pork Belly buns and Taro cheesecake. We have always been so pleased with all the food we have tried here. The service is excellent and of course Chef Vuong is always so sweet and friendly. Cafe De L'asie is an Oklahoma City MUST TRY!

    I'm gonna start where I'd normally end and just get it outta the way early; I will be back. Now on to the review. Lunch visit, and the place had a decent sized crowd. As I was looking over the menu one of the kind staff (I have GOT to start asking people's names) gave me a brief overview of the menu. I ended up ordering the Honey Sriracha Chicken Po'boy with Togarashi Fries. The chicken was tender, and had the sweet/heat combo I can never get enough of. The fries were cooked very well, and I actually couldn't finish them because the portion size was HEALTHY. Looking over the menu since my visit ive picked out quite a few items id like to try out. Which brings me back to the beginning; I will be back.

    Came in today (6/30/22) w/a group of co-workers. It was our 1st visit. We all ordered something different. I ordered the FRIED SHRIMP BUNS & an egg roll. It was soooo good. My co-workers LOVED their food too. We will definitely be back

  • 4/5 CB S. 1 year ago on Google
    Google Reviews were good, so I decided to check it out. For the most part, my expectations were met, but I did have an issue with some undercooked pork. I let the staff know and they replaced my order without any issue. The food was fantastic! Within walking distance of the Paycom Center, which makes it a perfect place for a dinner-and-concert date night!

  • 5/5 Linzi B. 2 years ago on Google
    Great vegetarian options for lunch! Their kung pao tofu rice bowls and fried tofu steam buns are tasty and also very filling. Definitely grab a boba tea!

  • 5/5 OuiKatie 11 months ago on Google
    Delicious! The fries with the aoli is cravable, the bulgogi patty melt was oh my word so good, the little slider-sized steamed buns are great. Though, I'll be honest, I could pass on the wantons. It's also walkable from the myriad gardens and has a lot of natural light. I recommend trying this place.

    Great breakfast! Stopped by during a trip to OKC and ordered one of the eggs benedict meals. Vanilla Latte was brewed to perfection and was hot when it came out. The cups have sleeves which help a lot when ingesting a high temperature beverage. Fruit as the side was sliced banana, strawberry, green grapes and whole blueberries. Great start to the day.

    Good food but their baguette for the bahn mi could be better. Very soft. I personally like more crunch. Pork belly is my go to. Juicy and delicious. I feel like their style has changed from the last time I came in (maybe 4 or 5 months ago). Possibly smaller portions? Like coming on weekends or weekdays after 5 when parking is free downtown.

  • 5/5 Megan S. 7 months ago on Google
    Wanted to try something new and looked at the menu and everything looked delicious. We ordered our food and it came out WAY faster than we expected. We got the bao bun bundles 2 w/ an egg roll and 1 w/ fries. It was amazing!! We also got 2 Thai teas with coffee jelly and a Vietnamese coffee(they let you have a sample because it's very strong) the tea tasted like a dessert and the coffee was perfect for someone who loves the taste of coffee. We did order more food after devouring every thing we originally got and loved that as well (bulgogi rice bowl and wagyu burger and fries). Only negative is portion sizes felt closer to a lunch than a dinner but over all can't wait to go back!!

    I really enjoyed stopping into this breakfast place during my time in Oklahoma city. The prices are really reasonable with excellent portions and quick service. I really enjoyed the pork belly with eggs and potatoes and so much more. My flight to Boston during a blizzard was delayed and I got thrown all over the country and didn't have time for lunch that day. Thankfully the pork belly hash was enough for breakfast and lunch!!

  • 5/5 Andrew D. 7 months ago on Google
    Wow, wow, and wow. I wasn't looking for this place or food type but dang. This stuff is amazing. I had the Bang Bang Chicken Bun and Pork Belly Bun and fries. The pork was an actual slice of pork with the fat still on it!! I enjoyed the first two I went back for the Shrimp Bun and Char Siu Chicken Bun. Be wary about the fries, they are spicy but delicious as well.

    Excellent place to grab a quick lunch. I got Beef Bulgogi Bowl (pretty spicy) but perfect for lunch. Going to try the steamed buns next time they looked great.

  • 5/5 Overlord A. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is pretty tasty. I recommend getting the Pork Belly Ricebowl and a Chicken Steam Bun. The thai tea with the coffee jelly was nice too. The price was a bit steep but it's expected for the location. Definitely will go there again.
