Great food, from the entre to the dessert! They also have gluten free options. Was able to accommodate easily for vegan & gluten free dishes. Love the ambiance as well. This is my 2nd time coming here, & I plan on coming again. Great job!

Nous avons trouvé notre repas délicieux & le service était très bon. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié. Seul point plus négatif, nous avons trouvé ça un peu cher pour la quantité de nourriture reçue, les portions n'étaient pas si grande & nous avons quand même trouvé ça dommage d'avoir à payer 4$ de plus pour avoir un accompagnement de riz avec notre repas de protéine.

Le service était bon, mais sans plus. Nous n'avions pas de serveur/serveuse attitré. À chacune des visites à notre table, c'était une personne différente qui venait nous voir. Nous avons demandé quelques minutes pour choisir le dessert, mais personne n'est revenu nous voir. Nous avons dû nous lever pour payer, même si nous avions notre facture & nos cartes sur la table. Le service des commis était meilleur que le service de la personne qui a pris notre commande. Le Pad Thaï était bon, mais le goût n'était pas authentique. À noter que curieusement, les plats de cari n'incluent pas le riz.
