    Went here for my birthday dinner. First time visit. We ordered the calamari and crab Rangoon to start. The calamari was very bland. Needed more salt and flavor. The crab Rangoon were decent, but tasted better when dipped in the sauce. I ordered the seafood medley as main course. It was good. Had nice flavors. My husband got the street stir fried chicken and rice noodles. Portion was large but he didn't care for it because it didn't have much flavor. Honestly, the dessert was the best part of the experience. They gave me free coconut ice cream with nice presentation, and we ordered the cotton candy chocolate tree for dessert, which was fun and delicious. Service was nice. Parking in front is bad but there is a public garage around the corner. Not sure on the parking costs though.

    The food was delicious and well presented especially the deserts. The only thing I wish was better was some of the dishes in the buffet were cold such as the drunken noodles, I wish they were hotter. This restaurant is really outstanding and we won't let the cold food at the buffet ruin our experience, next time we will order individual entrees made to serve. Other than that minor detail our experience was fantastic and I recommend others to come visit this restaurant.

    In a city of a lot of mediocre Thai, this place was really good. Bonus was they had plenty of options for my vegan friends.
