    Food was excellent. Portions are good for communal eating and sharing. Servers are pleasant, not pushy about drinks or dessert. Owner went round to ensure all guests are happy with food- he explains how to “wrap” gem lettuce leaf around really crisp shrimp if one is bothered by the crispness! And it is so so nice that they added 20 percent to the bill so that it gets distributed to all staff. No more tipping anxiety to ruin an evening. V civilized. The service level and the quality of the food is such that you won’t mind the 20 being added on upfront!

    Great food and cocktails. The Thai shrimp with lychee was flavorful. I also enjoyed their Suan Lychee cocktail (Sabe vodka sake, lychee puree, lime, basil & mint leaves). Will definitely go back to try other dishes.
