    Excelente en todo pero la reservación mediante la app de Open Table no es definitiva, se necesita llamar al restaurante para confirmar. La app no lo menciona.

    Deliciosa cena! El lugar es espectacular y la atención de primera! El arroz con jaiba suave es una delicia, los cocktails también muy ricos. Las atenciones de las señoritas Laura y Elizabeth excelentes, nos hicieron sentir en casa. Super recomendable, regresaría mil veces.

    La comida estuvo excelente; conocimos al chef Óscar porque quisimos felicitar la cocina, es la segunda vez que vamos y siguen con la misma calidad y sabor , solicité un pastel de cumpleaños y venía la leyenda que les informe pero la vela deja mucho que desear para ser un lugar como este restaurante, pero en general muy recomendable , gracias

    Unacceptable level of service. We were not allowed to enter the hotel for 30 min because the restaurant’s error. Then they were unreachable by telephone, despite 3 different people trying to call them. And all we got in response from the manager was blaming everyone else.

    The shrimp dish was lovely. The satay was soso. We didn’t like the beef satay at all. The mixed seafood with sauce was mediocre . Sauce over powered the seafood . Very expensive for Thai cuisine!
