This place is definitely a hidden gem when it comes to atmosphere, presentation, and overall vibe. Everyone was super friendly and good and drinks came out quick! Only thing was as good as the food looked i wish it delivered in taste. Thai tea was great though! Definitely would still recommend this place to people just was a little disappointed in the food.

Food is very fresh and clean! Portions are generous and very well garnished. Flavours standout, very well balanced flavours. Each dish is different, loved the peanut curry! Great vegetarian options! Tofu in the red curry was particularly good. Drunken noodles and fried rice were awesome! We over ordered and the leftovers were fantastic the next day!

Loved the food and service! Very nice people. Only change I would ask for would be to turn the volume of the music down. Also, maybe consider matching the music theme to the relaxing garden theme??
