The restaurant is nice and interesting overall. Some dishes are really enjoyable and captivating, other are less inspired in my opinion. I've enjoyed three out of four visits.

Super hip place in Portello! If you want fusion asian food this is the right place. We tried different dishes and they were all delish, I have to say that the ramen was average, nothing special but the rest of dishes were great!

Very good food, a little bit expensive though. The interior looks really cool.

We arrived there around 7pm when it was just opened so there was no guests but the place was fully packed in the next 30 minutes (I suggest you to make a reservation before coming). The place was aesthetically pleasing, simple yet modern. The waiters were also friendly and helpful. He asked us if we wanted a fork since they only provide chopsticks on the tables. They serve Asian food from a few different countries we ordered tom yum and pad thai. The food arrived in around 10 minutes (probably also because we are the first customers of the night) and they look good and appealing. The portion size was also pretty big and worth the price. I loveee their pad thai it was good and tasty. Unfortunately, I'm not a fan of their tom yum. It was just okay and not tasty enough for me. Tom yum is supposed to be sour and a bit spicy but I didn't find it sour and spicy at all even after I added leftover lime from the pad thai, it still didn't help. I'll be waiting for an improvement on the tom yum. Overall, I still recommend Handa. Worth to try when you want Asian food

The ramen is alright, pretty basic. The gyoza is great! The crispy duck is great too. However, the bao buns are a bit small. The staff is very nice and the restaurant looks cool on the inside.

scallion noodles were tasty, the chashu and egg were cold and the meat was a bit dry, the noodles were very tasty tho! I also tried fried gyoza (the sauce on top is a very good match I think) and kimchijiggae, interesting flavors not my favorite but okay, the complimentary fried bread was the best part music is a bit loud especially if you sit on the side of the wall interesting experience

We saw japchae on pictures and travelled to Handa, but I guess they discontinued it because it wasn’t on their restaurant menu :( very stylish with youthful energy next to the University. Great food! We tried the katsu curry and dan dan noodles.
