    We had a delightful lunch before theater. The restaurant is very nicely decorated. The wait staff were lovely. Selena was our main person but the other 2 people were also very helpful and all were very available. We found the papaya salad very good as a shared start. We had tamarind duck with eggplant and a mixed seafood dish with salty duck egg sauce. Both dishes came with a generous amount of well prepared rice.

    Food came out at different times and the service was slow to respond. When none of our guests finally got their food it was mostly fat and not protein. They did replace it but by that time everyone finished their dinner What was served was very tasty

    This was sub par as Thai restaurants go in HK. We had a mussels appetizer that was undercooked and possibly unsafe to eat. The staff didn't seem to care. They seemed overworked and running full speed around providing very sloppy service. The rest of the food was disappointingly bland, and food came out cold. I realize it's a new restaurant so they might work out these issues, but they're off to a poor start.

    The place is brand new. Nice looking place. They played good music at low volume. Food was delicious and so were the drinks. I think once word starts getting out about this place. It will be hard to get a table, but for now the place was only half full. The girl told me it’s only been open for about a week

    Definitely a must try spot. Such a hidden gem in the Hell’s Kitchen. I tried the crispy chicken and the chef’s special duck. They didn’t shy on the portion for sure and the duck was melt in the mouth out of the world !!!
