Came to Bangkok Garden for their lunch buffet, which for its price is amazing to try out what this place can offer. Their tasting menu is basically like a food court's or beginner's guide to Thai food, with classics like green, yellow, red curry as well as phad see eew noodles, pad thai, and a noodle soup station. Overall, this is a very popular and optional place to bring people new to Thai and vegetarians (as they have a pretty good veggie selection); however, some of the food definitely could have been hotter. The reason why I mention "for people new to Thai food" is due to some missing classics like papaya salad, mango sticky rice, fried banana blossom, pad kra pao, etc. and the flavor profile was on the more gentle side instead of the strong punchy basil or saucy dishes and the spice level is mild at most compared to what other Thai places offer in Toronto. This could just be a regional or personal preference so YMMV. Of what we sampled, the pad see eew noodles, their meats section including various chicken dishes, the spring roll, and banana fritters were very delicious. With their fish curry and fried rice being my favorite. We did order a Thai Ice Tea just to try and it was the right amount of concentration and sweetness. It wasn't too much ice (like in Thailand) or too sweet in some other Thai places downtown. It was a perfect balance for Toronto. This place is very well decorated, with an indoor koi fish pond and lots of seating: front of house with 8-10 plus 4 bar seating, inside the main area has several platforms totaling 30-50 seats and a mezzanine floor for privacy with another 30+. The whole place probably could handle 80+ in a combination of seated 2+ person tables and bench seating. It doesn't look like it is wheelchair accessible, YMMV. This place does fill up super fast, get here within the first 45-60 mins of the lunch buffet or make a reservation ahead of time. They seem to have lots of office workers, hotel guests/tourists, students, and some regulars. Definitely visit if you are in the area, it is very much worth a try. Would be bringing any vegetarians and friends to try this great deal in the future as well as trying their regular a la carte options for lunch or dinner. read more

Came for their lunch buffet between 11:30-2:30pm. They have a good selection of food including a noodle soup bowl bar, pad Thai, yellow/green/red curries, fried rice, spring rolls and a small selection of desserts and fruit. For the price of $24.99, it's really not bad especially for how much food is these days. In terms of the authenticity and quality, also not bad, but nothing amazing. I would say the fish dish was their best.we came early so the food was not as hot anymore but after staying a bit with a few rotations of dishes, we got some piping hot spring rolls :). It is missing some of your classic Thai dishes in my opinion such as mango sticky rice, gra pow, khao soi, so if you're looking for some of those popular northern Thai dishes, this is not the place. We also got the Thai milk tea was really good. The service here was wonderful, super friendly and attentive. And the decoration and space is absolutely beautiful. Considering everything, it's not bad. I wanna give it a 3.5 in general. Definitely an easy place to take friends and family for who are out of town and want a good variety of food. read more

Saw their ads for the weekday lunch buffet for a while but havent had a chance to drop by. Weekday lunch hours are tight. Today's Thai lunch buffet was in celebration of Mother's Day and the place was busy! Nice to see a place crowded with people. Interior dining area is beautiful, spacious, plus there is an upper floor for additional parties. Not accessible friendly for scooters unfortunately. Contrast to the dining space, the buffet area is brightly lit. Staffs are readily available everywhere to help guide you as needed. FOODS: The steamed rice was great! The glass noodles (with the use of fish sauce) was superb. The red curry fish was fantastic! Chicken wings were great too. Everything else was meh or missed the mark imo. For instance, the honey garlic pork ribs and bbq chicken were bland, the noodle station (though a nice touch) tasted like its broth (I chose chicken) leaned on the bland side as well. The dessert bar is on an island to itself and if you werent looking around for it (or read there would be dessert), no one there told you what is where. You walk in, get seated, and off you go on your buffet adventure. My favourite thing there were the pineapples (fresh) and the pina colada jello (fresh, well made). They didnt have mango sticky rice which is the quintessential Thai dessert but instead they had coconut sticky rice with mung bean (the mung bean was on the "too sweet" side for an Asian palette but certainly can accommodate other palettes), and there was jackfruit sticky rice. Now, I'd raved about this if the jackfruit was fresh not canned (but sadly these were canned). All the other dessert options were nice to try but nothing that makes you leave and dream about coming back for. Overall there is a handful of quality items (from the savoury section) but at the price point of $33.50/per person, it's not something I'd recommend to anyone I know. More of a curiosity that once's satisfied, you can mark it off your list without needing to go back to. read more

We enjoyed the unlimited ayce tasting menu here (weekday lunch only). Not a big buffet offering, but decent amount of dishes to choose from, and all were delicious. Really enjoyed the noodle soup, it's simple but very satisfying. Definitely try this place out, especially the ayce if you like varieties. The restaurant is elegant and peaceful, although just steps away from buzzing Eatons. read more

An elegantly designed interior accompanies delicious and fresh food. I truly enjoyed my evening dinner here. The restaurant is decorated with beautifully crafted wood bells which act as lighting, as well as a Koi pond near the tables. The service was friendly, quick, efficient and attentive. The food is picturesque, savoury and delicious. The dishes look good in photos and tasted great on the plates. Full of flavour, fresh, and with vibrant colours. I would definitely come back for more of this Thai food. read more

We enjoyed a delicious meal at Bangkok Gardens last weekend. The restaurant has moderately nice ambiance and I really loved the water garden, which I passed by on my way to the rest room. THE FOOD: - LEMON SHRIMP SOUP TOM YUM GOONG The Tom Yum Goong was really good and it came with a nice quantity of shrimps (3 big shrimps) a delicious lemon flavoured broth, mushrooms, lemongrass, lime leaves, and bird's eye chili. The portion was a little on the smaller side but it was really good. MIXED VEGETABLE STIR-FRY PAD PAUK The mixed vegetable stir fry was really good and it included carrots, bok choy, broccoli, and other mixed vegetables. The flavour was really good and it wasn't too saucy. I enjoyed eating this with our entrees. GRILLED SEAFOOD SATAY AAHARN TALAY SIEP MAI YANG This dish was really good but arrived differently than we anticipated. It came with three skewers, which included grilled shrimp, squid and mussels marinated in a curried coconut milk. This dish was also served with a delicious piquant garlic dipping sauce (the employees thought it might be too spicy for me) on the side, which I used on all my proteins and rice. The garlic dipping sauce was exquisite! EMERALD CURRY GAENG KIEOW WAAN The Emerald green curry was my favourite dish. We ordered this with beef and the flavour composition was phenomenal. The dish was made with coconut cream, fresh basil, and lime leaves. We ordered two bowls of jasmine rice to go with our dishes and the meal was really good. I believe the reviews have a low rating because the prices are high and the portions are smaller than other restaurants. Would we come back? We would come back when we have another $20 off coupon from Elmwood Spa or to celebrate an event, since it's pricer than some of our other go to Thai restaurants. read more

Bangkok Garden Restaurant - Beef green curry, seafood platter and mixed vegetables - Thai Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

TLDR restaurant is old but with great ambiance, great service, food is perfectly average Visited for winterlicious and ordered honey garlic wings, chicken pad Thai, and Thai tea float. Unfortunately I thought the appetizer and desert I got last winterlicious was better than this year. Wings were crispy but I thought could be hotter. The pad Thai is very saucy which I don't mind but may not be everyone's cup of tea. There was also soft bone chunks in the chicken. The Thai tea float was just weird, and the coconut jelly in the bottom of the tea was the worst part. The ice cream was pretty good though. It's the perfect three stars being not too bad and just okay. Maybe I'll leave my next visit for the 26 winterlicious again read more

Worst Thai food ever! Menu is misleading, you don't get what you order. Amateur cooks! Food tastes horrible, food court Thai food is better! Wasted a lot of money! Never again! read more

Mediocre Thai restaurant with slow service and beautiful decor. Restaurant is quite big and there is ample seating. I got the Thai chicken wings and pineapple fried rice. The chicken wings were great: crispy and well seasoned. The fried rice was very greasy and quite bland. The servers weren't very attentive and it took some time for the food to come and for us to pay the bill as their system was down. The restaurant feels quite dated and at this price point, there are many other Thai restaurants in the downtown core that rival Bangkok Garden, such as Pai or Koh Lipe. I would skip this one. read more

Bangkok Garden Restaurant - people eating and drinking - Thai Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Went to this restaurant after the movies and it was definitely a great place to wind down. The atmosphere and service was great. The entire aesthetic of the restaurant really elevated my dining experience. It felt like a zen garden with running fountain streams and great interior design. I would say if you like a beautiful restaurant to take your date, this is a great place! However, the food was a bit disappointing. I ordered the Pad Thai with a thai iced tea. I've made this exact order many times at other restaurants, but this time it was really below par. The Pad Thai tasted like almost artificial: the sauce was too sweet like ketchup, undercooked, and none of the ingredients blended together well. The Thai iced tea was also too sweet and as if it was made from artificial ingredients. The pad see ew my friend ordered was a little better but still does not have that authentic Thai taste. If you wanted to get some good Thai noodles, just go to Salad King down the street. However the aesthetic and atmosphere here was the best part, so if you are willing to compromise on taste for looks, this is a good choice. read more

What a gem! I was recommended by my massage therapist to go to this restaurant for the best Thai food in Toronto, and I was not disappointed. My massage therapist worked at Elm spa for many many years (Keisha Davis) and she said that the staff at Bangkok Gardens shared a change room with them. Keisha mentioned how the owners of this restaurants come from Thailand/specifically import spices from Thailand to get their food to truly taste authentic. I went on a Friday for lunch around 12:40pm and we were the first ones seeded in this unassumingly big restaurant. The interior design is gorgeous, with a running water little pond with koi fishes swimming inside, an upper floor with more tables, a big giant Buddha statue that was not in your face, but more classy and subtle than you expect. My friend ordered the yellow curry with chicken (Yum!) And I ordered the red curry with chicken (also good, but I preferred the yellow curry dish and overall just now of a fan of green curry but that was not one of the lunch options available). To be honest, the curry was not what I had expected. Here in Canada and in the States, the curries that I've had are thick, creamy and very very rich (like fatty-tasting rich and thick) of a sauce, but the curry served here, I think, is authentic and likely how they serve/cook it in Thailand. It's a lot lighter, not as heavy, more "watered down", but it was surprisingly better than those thicker curries because Bangkok Gardens' curry is one that you will not have a problem finishing and still feel good and satisfied after eating, vs. getting sleepy/itis after a lunch meal. We also had the lychee sticky rice. A very good twist on the classic mango sticky rice. Our wait staff, Annie, persuaded me to try the Thai Iced Tea, and I'm so happy she did! It was too sweet for my taste, so I told Annie and she brought me some cream on the side with extra ice cubes and I thinned out the Thai Iced Tea so it felt like I actually had the equivalent of two drinks and it made me feel like I really stretched my money = the food and everything was worth the high pricetag. I will take more of my friends and my family here for a delicious Thai meal! Thanks for all your help and for being such a lovely wait staff for us! All the best (: read more

Bangkok Garden has been around forever, and occupied a historic building on Elm Street. Inside, the decor is 80's-style but fantastic. The food is similarly dated unfortunately. The lunch buffet is what everyone gets, but for $24 I would have hoped for something more than typical food court-style food. It was fine, but nothing special. Newer Thai restaurants like Pai blow Bankgok Garden out of the water at similar prices. Minus points for refusing to split a lunch bill with work colleagues even though we all ordered the exact same thing. A bad policy for a restaurant open for lunch downtown. read more

Overall: The food waa decent at best. I felt like I was paying a bit more for some fancy alterations of traditional Thai food, but I'd rather have the original kind at a more fair price. Location: Downtown very close walk from either college or dundas subway station. Price: Summerlicious menu was $33 for dinner. Food: Appetizers 1. The crispy wings were delicious. They were very crispy but not too oily, and the top part of the wings were stuffed, so no bones to pick out. 2. The crab tom yum really didn't suit my taste. It was very sour and quite runny. The dumplings were super thin and I barely tasted the crab. Mains 1. The Red Curry Duck had very good curry flavor. It was quite spicy. The duck breasts were pretty tough to chew though. 2. The Thai garlic fish came with a surprisingly large piece of fish. It was made very crispy and had a very nice sauce. The only issue was it didn't come with any veggies, and eating a huge piece of fish with rice was a bit heavy. Dessert 1. The Thai tea panna cotta was very tasty and unique. 2. The mango sticky rice was unfortunately disappointing. There were only tiny sprinkles of diced mangoes. The mangoes were also the sour, hard type which didn't compliment the sticky rice. They also added ice cream and whipped cream to it, but it was a bit much. I think I would've preferred a nice wholesome mango on top of sticky rice. read more

Came here during Toronto's Summerlicious! You could get lunch for $23 dollars with an appetizer, entree and dessert. However, I was hoping to have a better experience compared to the previous yelpers who have been here. But that was not the case... The service was poor and our waiter disregarded us several times. The food itself wasn't anything special, therefore I didn't bother taking pictures of anything. I was quite disappointed because most restaurants in the heart of downtown Toronto usually have flavourful dishes and great experience. Bangkok Garden was not one of them. There are many other places for great Thai food in Toronto! read more

This restaurant is pretty much a Toronto landmark and has been around for over 30 years! The food is authentic, with chefs from Thailand, and the service is gracious and welcoming. We like to come from their weekday buffet for $17.95 so we can try many of their dishes. The buffet offerings are similar each time we have visited. I'm glad they have descriptions on each of the dishes or there would be no way to remember them all. Buffet items: vegetarian Thai spring rolls, vegetarian crispy bites, chicken wings, glass noodle salad, mango & jicama salad, green leaf salad, vegetarian red curry, eggplant tofu, vegetarian pad thai, vegetarian anytime noodle, vegetarian stir-fry, sriracha chicken, spicy fish, yellow curry with chicken, green curry with pork, noodle bar - choose your noodle, protein, broth and toppings, sweet potato & banana fritters, cassava, fresh fruit, rambutan The food is perfectly spiced with a balance of spicy, salty, sour and sweet. I love spicy food but my wife prefers it on the milder side. The green curry is perfect for her, and some of the dishes are mildly spiced. This makes sense because not every one's palate is the same. I find it's much easier to add heat than take it away. The curries are very flavorful with the addition of Thai basil, kaffir lime leaves and coconut milk. I really enjoy the noodle bar, and usually order the rice noodle with fish, shrimp, beef balls and extra dried chili and coriander. One of my wife's favorite Thai desserts is mango with sticky rice. She makes it at home, but it can be time consuming and it's not a dessert you can eat a lot of. I called in advance and requested it for the buffet and the kitchen staff were very happy to oblige. Thanks Bangkok Garden! read more

We came here for lunch Buffet. They have one section for cold dishes: glass noodle salad, mango Jicama salad, fresh roll, chicken wings, Thai spring rolls. For the hot dish, they serve spicy fish option, Thai, and different types of curry such as with chicken. My favourite is the soup noodle station, you can select your own topping such as fish balls and other herbs, garlic, vinegar and the noodle between the rice noodle and egg noodle. The rice noodle taste better but sometimes I just ask for the soup with the fish balls so I can save room to eat other things. read more

I came here with my boyfriend for the winterlicious special, it was $28 for dinner per person. When we first enter the place looked like they were empty, but they lead us to the back and it was quite full. The decor and interior was really nice. There were two floors and two servers per floor. For appetizers we ordered the calamari and the chicken spring rolls. The calamari was a bit soggy and the spring roll was decent. They came at a reasonable amount of time. Main course however took a very long time. It took us an hour,I've seen other ppl get their orders quicker than us. I ordered the shrimp pad Thai and my boyfriend ordered the goat Currey. Because of the delay the manager gave us shrimp cocktail s, however my bf does not eat shrimp. I thought it was nothing special. My order was alright, the portions are big and they did not skimp out on the shrimp. However I would say it's only slightly better than Thai express but definitely not worth the 1 hr wait nor the price. For the goat currey, the taste was just okay nothing special. My boyfriend did say the rice was hard, I took a bite and agreed. The rice was either old rice or it wasn't cooked properly. As for the dessert, they came at a reasonable manner, I got the cassava cake and the boyfriend got the white chocolate rice pudding. I tried both and thought it was mediocre, nothing special . It's like something you can get at the Asian supermarkets . read more

We got to try this place as part of the Exotic Escape package with Elm Wood Spa. It comes with a 4 course meal. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience, service was very attentive and friendly. We ordered the shrimp spring rolls, calamari to start. We also tried the mango salad, which was perfectly portioned. Super yummy! For the mains, we ordered the Emerald Curry with Chicken and the grilled lemongrass chicken. The grilled lemongrass chicken was by far the best dish, perfectly seasoned and flavourful! For dessert, we tried the Coconut Crème Brûlée and Bangkok Coconut Cream which we're both really good. But the Bangkok Coconut Cream really takes the win. Unfortunately, they didn't have Thai Iced Tea, but we opted to order lychee and mango juice instead. We're usually skeptical when buying juice, but it was definitely worth it. read more

Came here for Winterlicious dinner last night and once again was extremely satisfied with the quality of the food, the service, and beautiful venue. Btw Bangkok Garden is one of the only Winterlicious restaurants with a fully vegan menu option. I started with the Tom Yum shrimp soup - 5/5 for taste! Omg I've had Tom Yum soups at a couple of other Thai places on Yonge street before and each time I left the broth untouched essentially because there was so MSG and tasted so artificial. I was very happy with the soup base here as it had a hint of coconut milk, which added creaminess and depth. My only complaint was how small it was! My friends also enjoyed their sausage and fried chicken appetizers. The vegan main, a red curry containing squash and soft tofu, was disappointingly small, but ohhh so very flavourful and creamy with the addition of coconut milk again. I was so jealous of my friends' Khao Soi, which had an abundance of chicken and veggies. Dessert was simple, but amazing. Order the vegan option even if you are not vegan as the rice crackers option was kind of underwhelming. The vegan sticky rice had bananas and black beans and was so aromatic and heavenly. Remember to top it generously with coconut milk... So frickin delicious. Overall my only disappointment was how small the portions were for Winterlicious and it makes you wonder whether paying $33 might have been a bit ridiculous. However, it also goes to show how amazing the food was-- just couldn't get enough of it! read more

Had such high expectations for this spot based on how much I drooled just looking at the summerlicious menu. Listen. I love Thai food but this did not do it for me. I got the spring veggie rolls for the app. It was very basic. Good but plain, you can get it anywhere. In fact you can get better ones at salad king down the street. Entrée - curry pad Thai with vegetables. Uh.... this kind of reminded me of old socks. Very little flavour with lots of sodium. I picked at it until I ate all the tofu and veggies. The pad Thai used these glass noodles that are like, a dollar at any Chinese supermarket. Not a fan and did not finish. Dessert - I had this sticky rice thing and it came with this weird egg texture looking thing with the tiniest bit of coconut milk dripped on it. Unappetizing- I didn't want it after two bites. I took the boyfriend's dessert, some chilli chocolate mousse and it was really good! Not light like regular mousse and had the spicy kick (the white people beside me were gulping water because it was too spicy lmao) but I liked it a lot. Oh! Cocktails wise, we got the cucumber gin & tonic and the piña colada. Pina colada was too sweet and too little rum. Highkey probably would not go here again but it's not 1 star. Super good service and very sweet. It was really slow though and we waited forever and it wasn't even packed. The place is gorgeous as well, bf said it looked like "an Asian keg" Wasn't a fan of the food and would probably go to salad king instead. read more

As for the dishes I usually order. I usually get the seafood friend rice. This dish is extremely delicious. There is plenty of seafood in the dish. The flavor is good. I would definitely recommend it if you like seafood If you like curry, the curry here is also pretty good. They are creamy and strong. Complements the rice well. read more

A friend of mine took me out to brunch today. Thanks suggested Bangkok restaurant. I used yo yo there about 25 years ago. Recently, on BlogTo I saw their menu. They were offering all you can eat menu for $24.00. The decor has not changed much. The owners are different now. I was really looking forward to the experience and the price looked pretty good. The menu was not what I had expected it to be. I was expecting a buffet with food. It waxed not. There was a preset menu, but it was rather limited. You could order as many items as you wanted. The menu suggested that you order no more than 4 items and than reorder. At the bottom of the menu, in small print there was a warning that you had to finish everything on the plates ordered or you would be charged a full price. We ordered only 3 items to see what the good was like. Red curry soup arrived in a very small dish. It looked inviting. Sadly, it did not measure up to my previous experience at the restaurant. It was rather watery and did not have all the required favours that one expected from this famous restaurant. Sadly, it was a great disappointment to me today. The food was not what I remembered it to be in the day before it changed hands. The menu pictures were very inviting. The actual food lacked the finesse that I remembered. I was expecting robust flavours that Thai cuisine is famous for. They were not there. The salt was MIA. The chillies were not prominent. We're I expected coconut cream I found coconut milk. The spicy fish was n-eatable, the batter was hard as a rock and not tasty. Maybe it was cooked long ago. I had to tell the waitress how bad it was. The batter is supposed to be light and tasty. Vegetable fried rice was light on taste as well as vegetables. Chicken wings were sub par. Even their famous spring rolls were just ok. The sweet duck sauce was house made and was just ok. All in all, a big disappointment. Very disappointed!!! Would not recomend. read more

Summerlicous 2023. Food was soso. Service was rushed and not once did they ask if we would like another drink.

I do not understand why people would leave a negative review. I have personally travelled to Thailand multiple times and love Thai food. This has to be the most authentic Thai food in Toronto. We devoured the food so quickly I forgot to take photos of them. The rainbow trout and the red curry sauce that comes with it is phenomenal. I personally think that the food here has the right amount of spice and flavour. (Although the Tom Yum can be more spicy) 10/10 would recommend. read more

Bangkok Garden Restaurant - Chicken Red Curry and tom yum soup - Thai Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

No flavour in the food. Service excellent. Good location. Ok ambiance. Right next to the spa.

As an old customer who used to come here a lot, I can say their all you can eat buffet is nothing close to the one before covid. Options are extremely limited. And I'm not sure if they changed their chefs, almost everything is tasteless. No more different kinds of curries, customizable noodle bar. They need more stuff too, there are only a few people on the floor. Many customers were waiting to be seated for a long time. The only few good points are the vibe, and $24 price for AYCE. I really missed the old buffet here. read more

We came here for a work function lunch, and it being my first time visiting Bangkok Garden, I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious their food was. We had the buffet lunch, and although there isn't much variety as compared to most other buffets, it's one of the few buffets I've been to where every single dish was delicious and flavourful. The noodle bar is a great feature, but be warned, they don't hold back on the spice! Our servers were extremely attentive and kept our glasses full and whisked our empty plates away faster than I can notice - not an easy feat for a party of 30. The only two downsides: 1) the buffet empties out extremely quickly. From the moment I got there to my revisits for more food, all of the trays were pretty much empty. More than one occasion I scraped at the trays to get the last bit of pad thai or rice, which is disappointing because like I said, the dishes were all very well made and I would have liked the opportunity to try more. 2) we had some issues with the booking. Our original reservation somehow got cancelled, and it wasn't until one of us called a couple of days before to confirm, that we were informed that our reservation did not exist. They offered us a new reservation for 1:30pm (instead of the original 11:30am) and luckily most of us were able to make this new time. The manager was very apologetic upon our arrival and offered us a group discount for the trouble, which was very nice. Overall, it was a great dining experience and I look forward to returning for the lunch buffet. read more

Food was pretty good! A little expensive for what we ordered though. Probably would only go again if I was going with company that insisted on going there ALLERGIES: be careful with your order for allergies.

This is a decent restaurant with some good food and modern dimly lit decor. It's a short walk from Eaton Centre so it's a good option for dinner after shopping. This review is for the Winterlicious menu. We had the Thai calamari and coconut mussel soup for appetizers. The portions are quite small and the calamari was crispy if a bit on the greasy side. It was good but the coconut soup was better. The soup was creamy with a hint of sourness. It was satisfying. The sriracha bbq pork was disappointing. It barely tasted of either sriracha or barbeque. It was almost tasteless. The crispy fish with red curry was so good, however. I'm not usually one for spicy dishes but this was so good that I had to keep eating it, though my mouth was slightly burning. I'd go back to eat just that. The warm white chocolate rice pudding barely tasted of white chocolate. It's basically just rice pudding, and it was okay. The cassava cake was also forgettable. It came in three tiny cubes and it was drier than it should be. My mother makes this cake and it was far from my standards. Ah well, I still really enjoyed the fish. read more

WINTERLICIOUS REVIEW Flavour of food is okay, portions are small and service isn't the greatest. FOOD We went for their $33 dinner menu. The majority of the winterlicious menu cannot be found on their usual a la carte menu. I had ordered the Shrimp Pakora appetizer - 3 small pieces that consisted of more batter than shrimp. Given, it tastes good but significantly smaller than a typical appetizer. Next I ordered the Crispy Jungle Fish - the fish was seasoned but it was nowhere near crispy. Did they intend for the green beans to be the crunch of the dish because they were on the cusp of undercooked? Lastly, I had the Banana Fritter - 1 piece of banana with a scoop of coconut ice cream. The best part of the meal.. SERVICE They cleared our dishes and brought out the next plate quickly. However, they didn't refill the water until the end of the meal. They brought out the bill while we were still eating (if there was a lineup of people then I would understand but there were plenty of empty tables left). The staff don't seem warm and pleasant - felt like they were there to do their job, nothing more and nothing less. After we finished our meal, we showed them a plastic piece that was found in one of our desserts (Upside Down Cheesecake). We just wanted to let them know to be careful in the future but they didn't even offer a "sorry". Instead, they tried to convince us that it was on the outside of the dish and not in the food (yet it was pulled out of the mouth).
