"Chef Sanjay was super accommodating to our requests. Would highly recommend the veg nasi goreng and veg pad thai!! Cocktails and staff were awesome too. Anne served us and she made us so comfortable! Vegetarian options: There’s lots of starters for vegetarian options. There was a few things on the hot dishes that could be made vegetarian"

"Food choice was amazing. Pan-Asian Fusion menu. We enjoyed the delicious sampler; Lamb, prawns, with sticky rice. Trevor was amazing he is extremely informed on the dishes; country of origin how they were made how which dip pairs with different dishes. The ambiance is perfect. There are tables for 2 to groups of more than 5. And it’s a quasi open setting. My only issue was my card was compromised after I swiped it on their card reader. Two days later I had to cancel it because of fictitious online charges."
