I came here in mid-January but apparently it is closed now. It was just okay - the pad see ew didn't have much flavor and the apps weren't anything to write home about.

Took my girlfriend their to celebrate her birthday and the experience was excellent. Be warned it is on the pricey side but worth it. The ambiance is great for a date night dinner, great mood lighting with a Japanese garden feel with blossoms and lights throughout the restaurant. Our server was attentive and patient. My only knock was the octopus which was my least favorite in Miami but everything else from the shrimp appetizer to my duck red curry( expensive but honestly the best I've had, flavorful, large portions, and spicy) was amazing. The wine was high quality and reasonably priced per glass. Finally the DJ was awesome. Definitely gives you the going to a Thai restaurant on the beach. Fancy but cool place. Love this place and will go again. Highly recommend.

This place had great reviews and we wanted to give it a try. We did not have to wait for a table. Food presentation was nice, but it wasn't spicy like we requested, and didn't seem like it was homemade or made with the freshest ingredients. The drink was very sugary, also said it would be spicy and was not. The restaurant is kind of americanized and didn't deliver for me. I have been to Thailand and I loved the food and culture, but I would not come back to this place.

We had to dine end due to unexpected illness so we gave this Thai place a try. I am Thai but like any pallet...we all have different taste in what we like.Ordered:Sticky ribs, husband like it but I still have to tried it.Beef Jerky, good but why do anything to sticky rice. I prefer my sticky rice plain. Reason being the jerky usually has enough flavor and plain sticky rice complements nicely.Green beef curry, very good!Massaman, little different from what we're accustomed to but still good.Highly recommend this restaurant as good Thai food.

We love coming here for a late dinner on NYE. Have been reserving the past few years that we have been in Miami Beach for NYE. We like to sit outside and then after dinner walk down to the beach to see the fireworks. Food, drinks, and service always great!

The food was Delicious one of the best sushi Thai restaurant in Miami . I was disappointed for the New Year it's was too quite. I recommend to everyone the food is Ridiculous yummy.

The food was great. The waiter kept trying to up sell every time he spoke and if you don't mind paying $2.00 for a round piece of ice per drink without being told about it, then go and enjoy.

One of the best Thai places in Miami! I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical considering this is still a fusion place but got pleasantly surprised. The service was amazing, food huge portions and best pad Thai I had in Miami, drinks- amazing, atmosphere- perfect!

5 star food 5 star ambience 5 star service: Fantastic Thai food in a beautiful intimate setting with some of the best service I've seen in M Beach.5 star food: Chicken Pad Thai is always my go-to at a Thai restaurant and this was among the best I've ever had...creamy with a rich peanut taste and perfectly soft chewy noodles. Dessert was also pretty stellar: passion fruit cheesecake was tart and creamy without being too sweet.5 star ambience: Inside it feels like a very hip Zen garden. The are blossom trees over almost all the tables. Soft mood lighting and meditative music compete the mellowed out vibe.5 star service: From the front door to the servers, everyone here is very sweet, cheerful, helpful and on the ball. It was a well-coordinated cycle of drinks, food, check back in, bill, etc .

Atmosphere underwhelming for Miami Beach. Waiter was not very interested in our table or any others for that matter. Food took a very long time. Appetizers were just OK. The noodle entrees were just OK. Lots of oil on everything. Pricing was astronomically high for rather basic Thai cuisine. There was nothing special about these dishes. I'd rather eat at little Thai house in south beach dollar for dollar. With all the options in the beach i will not return. In all fairness we did not eat the sushi so maybe that's what their strength is?

This is definitely a great option if you are looking for Thai Japanese fusion in South Beach. Also a great spot for a large group. My friend did a birthday weekend in Miami for Labor Day and all 8 of us were seated comfortably on a Sunday night. They also brought us desserts and a sparklers for my friends birthday. I split the Udon drunken noodles, red curry, and shishito peppers with one other person. All of which were delicious. I do think the duck in the red curry was a tad over cooked and the curry overall could have used a lot more spice but it was still a delicious meal. The beef in the udon was super tender and cooked really well. I think the udon was my favorite meal. For the dessert, we had a chocolate cake and ice cream, mochi ice cream and mocha donuts. The mochi ice cream was stale and the texture of the ice cream was icy. They chocolate cake and ice cream were really good. The restaurant is super vibey and has a great playlist. I think the service could be better, we ended up waiting over 30 mins after eating to get the bill. This restaurant is medium priced. If I'm back in Miami, I would return!

The good - the ambiance was really nice and the food was good. The bad - the service was horrendous. Our waiter barely took our order, never checked on us, and didn't give us a receipt - just said total is xxx and I had to ask if tip was included. Took a long time also to get our food. We almost left because we were tired of waiting. Plenty of other places in Miami to eat so we will not be returning.

Very average. The food was Ok, the place was OK though we sat outside and it's probably better inside. Service was ok, it did feel a bit like we were ruining his night by being there! Overall wouldn't recommend. For the price, we expected delicious and we got average

We have been coming to the restaurant a long time and it is always such a great experience the food is amazing and the service is maybe the most efficient in Miami. Thank you for maintaining such a high standard at your establishment

We can to Miami as the first leg of our vacation on the keys. Naiyara is great at the Thai part of the menu. Presentation was on point. The sushi is just ok for the price. I had the coconut soup and it might be the best version I have ever had. The spring rolls were also delicious.
