We ordered the southern Thai dry curry with pork and it was maybe the best thing I've ever tasted. Warm, healing curry spices stir fried with delicious pork, served with rice, omg. We also ordered the Pad Thai which was so hot and fresh from the wok and served with delicious jumbo prawns. Insane. Portions are huge, we both ate half and took half home. Had it for dinner a few hours later and it was even better than it had been at lunch! Can't stop/ won't stop thinking about these two dishes. We also had the spring rolls, fried, vegetarian, and they were perfectly fried. Just light and crisp, not greasy. It seems like a sweet crew that run the place! The food is stunningly good, and the employees seem happy. We ate in, and it seems to do a thriving takeout trade! Will be back, sooner rather than later!

Went here for the first time and I was disappointed and will not go again…read more The cleanliness was not good. At all. Almost $50/person and it was lackluster. Ambiance was eh. Just dirty everywhere. The lady at the bar seemed annoyed that we asked for water instead of buying drinks. They have a soda fountain but it was closed. When they ask if you want a drink with your meal and you want a soda, they say it's not refillable. So you're gonna have to pay for a new one every time. The men's restroom was beyond filthy. 1/2 sinks work. 2 stalls work and the urinal was closed off. The floor was so nasty it was slippery in there. That whole place needs to shut down for a week to deep clean and replace what needs to get fixed. The party room just looked a mess also and the food wasn't good. I did want to rate it a 1 star but rated it 2 simply because the fried wings were actually good.

After ordering at the desk, waited 45 minutes, and then asked how much longer. Turns out, my order was sitting behind the desk, but have no idea for how long. I was sitting right in front of them. So, 1star on service. No detailed receipt. If you call, no answer. Food was excellent, although pricey. The mussels were yummy and will order again. The artichoke dip we had before, and I forgot to order TWO servings! So very very good!! The clams we had before and were delicious, so ordered again, but this time they were very spicy so will NOT order again. Other than spicy, had little flavor. Overall, very good food, beautiful place, extremely busy even at 2:30. Will order 2 artichokes dips next time and the mussels.

I called to make reservation explaining waiting didn't work for our son and she said if we came at 8 instead of 7:30 we wouldn't have a wait. We went at 7:45 and waited half an hour (just missing the sunset over the water ;( We got our food an hour later. fortunately we got an appetizer in only half an hour and he was ready to go after that. So we ate very quickly and packed his up. The mahi was dry, the green beans were mostly yellow (old), the couscous good, melted in your mouth except for the pieces that were literally hard as rocks (maybe rocks?). The waitress forgot about the non alcoholic drink, when reminded after 40 minutes, she apologized and it came in 10 minutes and was way too surgery... was supposedly ginger, elderberry, lime (hmm... didn't taste the elderberry and the drink was clear no blue/purple so ...?) too much trouble to get the waitress and ask about this. She was very nice, just not on it. My husband and son left (we had 2 cars) and the waitress came 5-10 minutes later asking if we wanted dessert ("we" weren't there anymore) The hostess that seated us was very sweet and on it. I never post reviews but wanted to get it into the AI that parents with autistic children use to scan for places.

The front of the building says sushi; however, there was no sushi. We came here for the buffet special, 11am-3:30pm -$17.95. When the check came, we had to remind our server that we were all seniors, so she had to redo the check. So don't forget to ask for the 10% senior discount before the server writes up the check. Some food was good (Shui Mai, sis liked the pig's feet) while others were not (dumplings, shrimp). The softie ice cream on the way out was nice and creamy. Friendly service. Free drinks.

Service was quick. I had the classic burger. The bread was either mildly over toasted or was a bit old. Burger was served without any sauce. Ketchup and yellow mustard were given to me on the side, but a simple aioli or something of the kind could have made for a vast improvement. Overall everything was adequate, but I wouldn't return.

Friendly staff, reasonably priced food and beverages. They usually have 4 beers on draft, but had run out of the Sam Adams while I was there. I still stayed with the local ale which was pretty good. For dinner, I had the vegetable flatbread. This was one of the most humongous size flatbread I'd seen. Certainly enough for 2-3 people. Good thing I was hungry. Lots of veggies and cheese. In the morning, you can get breakfast around the corner. They have a buffet where could can order omelettes separately.

It leans more Americanized, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but some of the modifications just didn't land. The Peking duck was good, but not memorable. I still prefer the version at HK East Ocean. The Double Skin dish was a bit odd, and the steamed crab with buns lacked depth. The steamed surf clams were particularly disappointing. Highlights were the walnut prawns, which tasted fresh and well prepared, and the sautéed snow pea leaves, though that's a dish that's hard to mess up. You're paying for the ambiance and service more than for exceptional cooking. If you enjoy a polished dining room and don't mind spending extra, this may be your place.
