When you first walk in, you can appreciate the nice decor that reflects the Asian background of this restaurant. The location is walking distance of you are near cascine Park. I ordered the sautéed vegetables and the salmon curry. I found that both were made to my liking in terms of quality and seasoning. The vegetables were sautéed with just a tiny bit of salt. It could have used some pepper to really take it over the top but it was fine. The salmon was good quality esp for the price range and the curry was delicious! Bottom line...come here for the Thai it is delicious and you get to soak in Asia with the Asian ambience! Good for those staying near cascine. Pros Service Quality of food for the price Seasoning Healthy food factor was great for me :) healthy but delicious

Not typically into restaurants that cater to two different asian cultures because oftentimes I find…read morethat it results in an assortment of dishes that taste vaguely asian (I mean add a dab of soy sauce to rice and bam you've got vaguely asian- anytime, anywhere). In Niwa's case they've done a very good job of serving genuine food that correctly represents both Thai and Japanese cuisine. My friends and I ordered a series of dishes in order to sample all that the restaurant had to offer (ranging from pad thai to seared salmon) and discovered that not only were the dishes flavorful but also very filling. Definitely plan on popping in again. On a side note, the restaurant seems to fill up once it hits 9:00PM (or in Italian format 21:00) so make sure to come a little earlier if you don't want to wait.

The food was pleasantly surprising in how good it was and the prices were very very fair.

Even though they have only few choices, it would be ok for tourist. Spring roll was amazing. I liked the Tom yum ghoog. Bi bim bob was just ok. I think the specialty of Buddakan is Thai and Chinese. The servers were kind. I would recommend you to go if you want to try something Asian food.
