Dinner was excellent! From the hostess to the waiter to the bartender everything was spectacular. Our waiter was professional and engaging. He gave us great ideas and helped us with our friend who had a shellfish allergy. The food was delicious and served at a great temperature. The coconut ice cream was an excellent way to end the perfect meal. Bravo!

The overall experience was pretty good (7.5/10). The ambiance was nice for a date night. The food was good (8/10). The drinks were ok (6/10). The service was great (9/10). I felt that we were well tended to, but overall, it was a bit pricey. You can get better Thai food for a lot less. You're paying for the location and atmosphere. It was worth checking out, but I'm not sure I will be back for dinner. I might check out their lunch special.

We went for the tea service and I was a little underwhelming as they only had 2 tea options. we also saw lots of marketing of a $39 option per person which was discontinued last year All in all, we had a good time and we’re glad we went, but it’s a one time experience not a reputable experience for us Based on purely focusing on the tea service

Food and service are consistently great! Sit at the patio if you want a quieter dinner, as music might be too loud indoors for conversation.
