Made a reservation and our table was ready when we arrived. Our host was friendly. Music was chill and at a good volume. Ambiance was lovely, it was very welcoming. We had Jesse as our server and he had an amazing knowledge of both the food and drink menu. Our food was incredible (see photos). Portion size was perfect and the New Hokkaido Daruma beer paired perfectly with the food. Love that they serve local beef (from Little Belt Cattle Co). Thank you for having such an incredible restaurant in Bozeman. If you haven’t tried this restaurant before, I highly recommend you try it.

Wow, delicious. We had the spicy chicken salad for an appetizer and it was as what it said was!very delicious. The food comes out when it’s hot so it’s a big table you’re not eating at the same time, But if you’re sharing, it’s great to try so many delicious flavors from red curry to green curry. Sweet sticky ribs were delicious with the white rice. I got overwhelmed. It was so good I forgot to take pictures. mad at myself.

Sticky Tamarind Ribs
Coming here keeps you thinking of going back. The hearty dishes, flavorfully prepared fit right into Bozeman’s wintry climate. A rare gem from start to finish; and we found the cut that lingers on forever. A bison ribeye from a farm
in the vicinity.

Lamb Dumplings
Fantastic experience start to finish. Walked in on a busy Saturday night, and they found us a spot at the counter. Service was knowledgeable and attentive. Everything we ate was delicious! Chicken wings, Duck Rice, and Chicken Khao Soi all pictured here. We also had the beef jerky and the bison ribeye special which were also both great. Wonderful addition to the Bozeman restaurant scene, we will be here often!

Earth's Three Treasures
The size of the restaurant is small but the food and service is phenomenal. I’ve recently moved to South Dakota from Florida and I have yet to find ANY restaurant that cooks with flavor and uniqueness until Shan. I sat at the bar and was able to see the head chef and the rest of the team really put effort into each meal and making sure it was delicious.
The chicken khao soi had amazing curry. I’m usually not one to like curry at all but it was phenomenal.
I also had the chicken two way and I have no complaints at all. The sauce is spicy but worth it.
I will definitely be coming back!
Thank you!

Coconut and Pandan 'Tres Leches' Cake
tl;dr The food was amazing. Will definitely order take-out from here again, but it's unlikely we'll dine in.
Let's start with the food. We ordered the Chicken Khao Soi and the Massaman Curry of Lamb (with the Tres Leches for dessert). Overall, the food was amazing--This is certainly a one-of-a-kind find. The menu offers a unique take on this cuisine, and I have a feeling there isn't a bad thing on the menu; I'm excited to try more. For both main dishes, they were both familiar and new in ways that really worked. This menu has obviously been constructed by a chef with a deep experience of both the Asian cuisine, but also the Montana roots it's trying to connect to. The Tres Leches wasn't bad, but it felt uninspired compared to the rest of the meal.
Additionally, I was surprised by the price. For such a unique menu and a great meal, this was an AMAZING value. One of the problems I've experienced in Bozeman is that it's very easy to pay a lot of money for a bad meal. What a relief to be surprised in the opposite direction for a change.
Now for the not-food: we had reservations for a Tuesday evening. We checked in, and then were told we were going to have to sit at the bar because 'some of the tables aren't getting up'. There was a big table in the corner who was finished eating before we sat down and was still there when we left. We would have enjoyed the experience more if we would have been able to get the table we had reserved. I know it's uncomfortable to ask people to clear the table when they are finished, but for a restaurant that is this popular and busy, that seems like the reality.
Additionally, when the waiter gave us an overview of the menu, there were multiple things that were unavailable. He told us that if we wanted those 'you need to get in here before 5 o'clock'. I think I would be more understanding if it been a crazy day and those items just weren't available or it was seasonable etc., but if those are your top items, and this is a daily occurrence, make a plan maybe? Who's making it dinner before 5PM on a Tuesday?
The restaurant is small and intimate (good vibes), but the music was much too loud. It was difficult to have a conversation, much less hear the waiter.
All-in-all, the food itself was without issue (which is undoubtedly the most important thing), but the experience still had a little bit of catching up to do. We will definitely return for the food, but we'll probably get it to-go and skip the restaurant.

The Sticky Ribs were well seasoned and flavorful, DELICIOUS 😋. We also had the Lamb Dumplings. They were well steamed and the fresh Cilantro added a freshness to the dish. Highly recommend
these Dumplings. Lastly, we had the sliced beef special that was roasted to perfection. The Owners were friendly and attentive. We felt welcomed and appreciated. Jordan and the rest of the staff worked hard to provide great service. 👍up on this Eatery !!
