Wild East Asian Bistro

We work in the building so it 's easy for us to head downstairs to have lunch. However, I would go even if I didn 't work in the building. This is such a nice place on many levels. The food is great. The prices are good for Las Olas Blvd., and that 's a big factor. The portion size is wonderful from the larger portions that you receive when ordering the full sized meals and/or the smaller $6.00 portions from the Card they have. That 's perfect for lunch or for ordering a number of items so that everyone can taste something different. There is an outside seating area that sits right above the water and I am looking forward to the cooler weather when we will certainly enjoy sitting out there. The service is always with a smile and I have made a habit of SLAPPING THE BUDHA on my way out. He 's a huge over sized bronze Buddha that stands near the door. I get such a kick out of his smiling face so I slap his hand on my way out each time I visit. There 's a back room for extra seating, the washrooms are clean, the decor and the music are soothing and the overall feeling is a bit of an experience for me. There is a small bar as you come in and it would make a nice after hours stop before heading home at the end of a long work week. Either way, it 's worth the stop. I eat here often, I meet friends and others here and will continue to do so. Give it a try. I think you 'll find it very nice, indeed!

What can I say. I am in love with this place. First, it's so nice to walk into the space. It's decorated simply and with a contemporary yet Asian flare. The service is great and the servers are friendly and polite. I adore that. When I go out I like to be waited on they do that. Now the atmosphere; it's very nice. Fresh and bright. Overlooking the water on Las Olas Blvd., you can see boats outside through the many windows that allow the view to the patio. The patio is lovely. It sits above the water and the view is great. On a nice day sitting out there is like being on vacation. Umbrellas at the tables make it easy and convenient to sit outdoors. THE FOOD. Each dish is wonderful. More wonderful than the next. If you like spicy you can get it. If you like not so spicy, it's there too. The food is fresh and delicious with half portions at almost half price on certain items. It's a separate little menu and it's great for lunch or if you want two of instead of one dish. Ordering a few for the table is fun and delicious. There are many dishes and they are so far all great. I've had fish, chicken dishes, steak, udon and more. The dishes are served in so many ways too. I have enjoyed strips of delicious mouth watering steak or chicken on a stick. Lightly battered and sooooooooooooooooo great tasting fish is another favorite. The fried wanton is outrageous and a great appetizer. My girlfriends and I like to get one or two apps and share. Portions are good but not overbearing. The half portions are $6.00 and because we go there a lot for lunches with friends and lunch meetings with clients it's perfect for anyone sitting at the table. Oh, oh, they have the best teas too. Hot or cold. I mean I can't say enough about this place. It's located on the East end of Las Olas so it's really convenient if you are walking the Blvd. The restaurant butts up against a gallery and antiques place that is worth the look see. I happen to also enjoy udon and they make the best. If you don't know what that is, it's a fat, tasty noodle that is light and delicious if it's made correctly. Well, they make it perfectly with great flavor. You leave the table feeling comfortably full without feeling stuffed. You can take some home if you like and more times than not, I do. Lunch and dinner. It's just great. What can I say? I went there today for lunch, AGAIN, and I can't wait to go back. OUTSTANDING. I guess you can say I recommend Wild East Asian Bistro...!

Do try this Asian fusion restaurant. The Mongolian Beef is super! Lunch is our favorite. Parking is in an indoor garage just around the corner of the building.
