“ I went here as a kid with my mom and sisters. God rest their souls. Best food I have ever had. I compare all cuisine of this type to Liche Gardens. Living in So Cal, they just don't have this flavor. Vegas had good food, but not like Liche Gardens! Thank you for being open on Thanksgiving years ago to save me from my mom's cooking, God bless her soul. Merry Christmas! ”
