| - There were five of us in our group and we had dinner at Eez Fusion on Sunday night around 7pm. When we got there the place was busy but it wasn't slammed. Our server, Phelps (really sweet guy!), was great with us and took the time to answer our questions on the menu and help us figure out what to get. He was very friendly, very willing to accommodate our multiple requests, and he was so willing to make sure we were happy with our entrees. Midway through our meal, they gave Phelps a LARGE table adjacent to ours with about twenty people! He juggled both groups effortlessly and never once seemed to lose his cool. I don't know how he did it but he didn't miss a beat. As someone who has waited tables in the past (pathetically might I add!), I have a lot of respect for a server who can multitask to that extent and maintain the same level of service as with smaller parties. If you're the Manager of Eez reading this, please give Phelps a bonus or something, he seriously deserves it! Even after getting totally tied up with such a massive table, he still checked on us and was fantastic with us!
Ok the food. Thanks to Phelps I gave soya a try for the first time in a Thai dish, and loved it. It's a meatless substitute you can order that has a semi-chicken texture and is high in protein and calcium. I had their vegetarian curry with brown rice and really liked it. The dish was slightly dry so when I asked for a side of curry sauce and added it in, it was just right. The soya was a hit and really gave the meal substance. My friends all seemed happy with their food too, because when I looked at their plates most of their food was gone!
The atmosphere is clean and contemporary with cherry finish tables and bright wall paint that is somehow still soothing and inviting.
They take online reservations at opentablecom. Parking is pretty easy as there are plenty of spots in Birkdale Commons. Lastly, nice fusion food and fairly extensive menu, of Thai and sushi options.
