The instructions is that there is a 15 minute grace period. When we arrived we were the only one’s there and we waited because the host was only person up front and was on a order everything from menu phone order. Once we were seated the server seemed only semi interested in our table. A couple with kids came after us and had their food order and food way before us. We ordered two cocktails which took 20 mins to get. I get it if the place was hoping, there were 5-6 tables on our side of restaurant at time. The food was excellent for sure! We asked about rice, our server told us to remind her to get it for us…. so we had rice. Not a major deal breaker except the service in total was meh.

Second time here. Service excellent. Food is anesthetically pleasing and better to the taste buds! One of my top Thai-fusion restaurants in Pasadena. Classy, dimly lit and refreshing restaurant with beautiful outdoor patio seating as well.

First time for my sister’s birthday dinner, we were able to make reservations for a large party (11 people) and the food was amazing. The service was also so great, we had a Magician come by our table, our server Daeja was so kind and took polaroid photos of all of us at the end of dinner. We will def come back soon <3
