| - Loved this place!
Went on someone's suggestion with my brother and parents. In our ignoramusness we forgot to make reservations on a Friday night. It took about 30-40 mins to be seated. Had the "all you can taste" dinner - did a whole lot more than tasting :D
Food: Delicious! There is an extensive menu (see website) for $28/person. They say they will charge you for anything you don't finish so we tried :S
From the apps, really liked the coconut shrimp. The tempura was good, standard. The mango salad was excellent, and we went through quite a few of them - super fresh. I liked the curried pumpkin soup - different and yummy, but spicy.
We all shared the spicy salmon, dynamite and rainbow rolls, which were fine. My brother had the butter fish and salmon sashimi and barbecue eel, which he liked. The beef tataki and salmon pizza were good too.
From the entrees, the salmon teriyaki was good. The chicken in green curry was alright, but the red curry was delicious. The pepper beef was outstanding, and so was the thick curry tiger shrimp! We also liked the tamarind tiger shrimp.
Service: VERY good. The order was taken and delivered promptly. Our server made several helpful suggestions. It would be a plus if the restaurant could include complimentary green tea which many Asian restaurants do, considering the price.
Ambience: upscale. Several couples seemed to be there for an anniversary or date night. There were groups more casually dressed as well. We were pretty casual and did not feel awkward, so it should work either way.
Tips: make a reservation. Apart from the curries food is not super spicy (just fine with my palate!).
