    Service was nonexistent. The food was disappointing. The AYCE was a small buffet with a sad selection; the worst pad Thai and Tom yum soup I've ever had. The photo is all I ate for $30. The best Thai food I've had in the Houston area is at Thai Halal Bistro in Sugar Land!

    Beautiful food with great, bold flavors. Nice decor. Food came out a bit too quick, but other than that good experience. Live music was a nice touch.

    I love the place; the ambiance is perfect. However, my only concern is the food service. We ate 1, and the buffet was not refilled. I love the taste of food, but I would suggest more choices of buffet dishes. The is quite expensive for the limited available. There's no Pad Thai on the selections.
