Went: 12:00 pm Fri July 17 2015
Ordered: satay shrimp + thai tacos + custard
Cost: incl. $20.54 + $3.00 tip
Customer Service:
I have never been more impressed with the customer service at a restaurant.
1. When the woman who seats us was calling people to confirm reservations, that was a good sign. I've made a lot of reservations and they never call back.
2. We are small eaters and wanted to share a Summerlicious meal. Some places don't like that, but they were fine.
3. We only had an hour for lunch and had to leave sooner than we liked and told the waiter this and asked for the entree and dessert together. They said fine, but what really impressed was that they brought the bill right away and was ready to process it quickly.
4. The waiter then said the chefs are putting all other orders on hold and cooking ours first. Wow!
5. The manager came by to tell us because of a printing problem and that is why our remaining items were delayed, but he arranged it so that we'd get our entree soon and the dessert would be to go.
6. In the end, they gave us an extra dessert on the house.
Food:
The shrimps were cooked in a buttered sauce I believe. Some of them had a lot more flavour than others. The peanut sauce was light on that salty fatty peanut taste and had more of a refreshing sweetness to it. There were 6 loonie size pieces. Very good.
The Thai tacos were wrapped in a pastry resembling that used for Peking duck. A lot of tacos can taste greasy or heavy but this was quite light and was very nice.
We were in a hurry, so I ate my dessert in the car and liked it: not to sweet, nice texture, tasty.
Bottom line: The food is 3.75 Stars, so we'll round up to a 4. The customer service is definitely 5 Stars and will stand out in my mind for a long time, and will have me coming back.
