I have only gotten food from here through Postmates and has been a positive experience every time.
There's tons of options to customize your order - from the toppings to the different sauces. Keep in mind that there may be additional costs with these customizations. I personally really like the chicken and find it quite flavorful on its own. I usually get the chicken, vermicelli noodles and everything but the jalapenos and peanuts. For sauces, I get the peanut sauce and Asian street dust. Portions is not too bad as I feel content after finishing the plate - so no food coma haha. The chicken plate without any additional customizations is around ~$13. Although this is more on the pricier side, the ingredients do seem fresh and I also don't feel terrible after eating this since it's more on the healthier side haha. -

I come here to buy lunch for my employees. As of late though there seems to be a lack of efficient management. On two separate occasions, they forgot to make one of the items and I had to wait an extra 15 mins for my orders.
Today I put in an order at 10:45 to get picked up at 11:15. When I get there, they tell me that the order is being made. I wait an extra 30 minutes to receive my order while watching people who had come in after me, receive their order first.
The food is good. Our company gets food here at least 3 times a week, but these last couple weeks here have been abysmal. Unless something changes, my company and I will not be ordering food here anymore. -

Asian box is a great example of a restaurant that is perfectly average. It doesn't offer delicious food but it's also a great place to get a quick satisfying meal.
The Chicken Curry Box wasn't that bad actually, I'm not too comfortable with Indian food but I decided to try it at this restaurant and I'm happy to say that I was fairly satisfied with my order. But one thing that caught me off guard was the peanuts that was in the box, maybe it's just me but it seems out of place in the meal.
The Build Your Own Box wasn't that good even though we had the freedom to customizing everything to our preferences and I think it's because the ingredients that they used wasn't so fresh and wasn't prepared very well.
Even though it may sound like I'm bashing this place, it's not a "bad" place to get food, it's just average and there is nothing wrong with that. If you're in the mood to get some Asian food and you're close to this restaurant, I would recommend it to anyone who is willing to try new things. -

I finally stopped to try this place out. I got the workout bowl and was able to swap out the rice for salad. Thanks to yelp, you get a free drink. Trying to be good, I got the no-sugar added mint something tea. My friend buildt her own and was able to try difft sauces on the side as well which was nice.
The food came out and it looked very fresh! I asked for a house spicy sauce on the side as well. I enjoyed my bowl. Only thing is the tamarind sauce I thought was way to sweet! Next time I'll need to order it dry and add my own other sauce on the side. Chicken wasn't dry out which is always a good thing.
I feel like I had a pretty healthy dinner. -

Asian box, you left me disappointed. I used to come for lunch regularly. Customer service was amazing and the food....ohhhhh the food. Heaven, just heaven.
However...we moved and I have not been able to go in way too long. Well, we went for lunch last week and while the customer service was awesome (as always) and the mint tea and coffee were delish...my bowl was lacking. Did the noodles change? Or were they just grossly overcooked?? Not sure what the reason, but instead of chilled noodles, I received a warm, gelatinous blob. The noodles also seemed way thicker than usual...again, maybe because they were SO overcooked. Minus the noodles, the bowl was just as I remembered. The pork and veggies were delicious and the tamarind vinegarette and sriracha sauce were excellent...but the noodles ruined it. I will probably try going again, in hopes that it was just a fluke, but man was I disappointed! :(
