We came here for an early dinner and were surprised by a waiting line for those (like us) who thought that reservations weren't necessary a bit before 5PM. After a reasonable wait, we were seated and, having read the reviews and checked out the menu online, ordered right away. The grabang squash fritters were good if a tad greasy, but the Singha beers ordered to go with them never arrived. Our busy waitperson was apparently covering too many tables, thought we had the beers, and questioned if we were getting for a second round when we asked where they were. That was the only glitch in service from an otherwise attentive and personable server. The Chiang Ma beef noodle soup and the Khao Sol with beef were both worthy of five stars. Would we go back? Most certainly. The ambience isn't great, but the food is excellent by any measure.
