    Great service overall, except the gentleman on water duty was constantly refilling glasses even when you had only taken one sip. It was a little too much. Also, there was a screw up using a gift card that some how got added to my cc slip, but was corrected. The lighting is far too low. Looks pretty, but not functional for diners. When you move the table lap to make room for the food, you cannot see the food, especially when you have the duck on a three tier stand. I saw many patrons using their flashlights to read the menu. Bathroom sink was not working, so had to use another to wash hands. Our server and sommelier were great at their jobs and she really knew her menu and explained things well and made excellent recommendations. Food was presented wonderfully and tasted great.

    Heard about this place opening up and after browsing through Yelp and seeing all the pictures I decided to go celebrate my birthday here. I was so surprised by how good the food was. We had ordered so many things to try and they all were deliciousss! It seems that they make everything from scratch from hot pot soup and sauces which is undeniably impressive. The only complaint is that the portions are a bit small compared to the price. Inside the restaurant is decorated as Thai cozy dining room style with Thai stuff and Thai movies posters featuring Japanese decor. This place is owned and run by Thai people so the service fits my style perfectly lol. I have been back here twice in one month and I don’t live in the city. So this confirms how much I love this place lol ! I would totally encourage and recommend everyone to come visit. Tips: Crying tiger is a must try ! If you like to eat beef. Salmon clay pot is great if you like fish. Paying with cash gets some discount (if they still offer.) P.S. The pictures are from two visits. :)
