I always root for the little guys - especially when it is something unique. Ergo, I was really pulling for Tiaga. My first impression, was good enough, as the little space they have in an odd part of town (for a restaurant) is decorated with a modern, slick-yet-comfortable style. The server was friendly and really attentive (although, we were the only customers in there). So far so bueno. Now if we just did not order any food... Outside of the tasty caterpillar roll, everything else (gyoza, tom yum soup, scallops, crepe cake) was a letdown. Largely, the problem was that there was little flavor going on - and if you have ever had tom yum soup, you know that that is a difficult task! Both the gyoza and scallops seemed to be victims of overcooking, while soup lacked spice and the cake was just plain bland. Additionally, there was a gnat/fruit fly problem going on. With the food and the location, it was not too surprising that there was no else there when we arrived nor left.
