Given that we arrived early for our reservation they were still able to accommodate us. We ordered drinks and appetizers and right after they brought the drinks at a comfortable waiting table and sofas we were escorted to our table. It is our second time at this restaurant and I would highly recommend it. All 6 of us truly enjoyed our meals.

The food was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere of the restaurant made you feel like you were in Thailand. The service was excellent! We will look forward to coming back. Although the lights on the tables add to the ambiance the fact that they cannot be moved makes communal dining (as you hoped people would do) very difficult.
