★★★★★ 5.0 Todd Cannata · Nov 2025

The food was amazing. The pork jowl paired so well with the citrus sauce, and the homemade bread served with the mussels mopped up the liquid like a sponge. The cauliflower was flavorful and well-seasoned. The Cornish Hen red curry and lamb roti were cooked perfectly and very tender (the homemade roti was the perfect vehicle). I talked with the owner, Sung, who is fantastic. Will be returning soon to check out their brunch.

First off, their food is incredible. Unique flavors and absolutely delicious with beautiful plating. Secondly, their service is top notch. Their servers are attentive, kind, and great at their job. We came in with a party of 9 and they were able to fit us in. We tried 9 dishes off their dinner menu and every single one was fantastic. We couldn't decide which we liked best. I wish I had taken photos of the small plates we ordered but I forgot. Their brunch menu is also amazing by their dinner menu is my new favorite! Highly recommend

Kothai is definitely my all time favorite restaurant. I am so addicted that we have been going there every weekend since they started serving brunch. Their food is unique. They do not take short cuts and each dish is carefully engineered. Yes, engineered, the owner puts in a lot of thoughts and trials before adding a dish onto the menu. We do go there for dinner, too. They have different menus for brunch and dinner and every dish is great. Service is very attentive and everyone is informative.

★★★★★ 5.0 Mara Lu Herrera Cohen · Jan 2026

I have eaten here several times and it is consistent: service is friendly, caring, on time. The menu is creative and the food is delicious and beautifully served. Portions are a good size for either sharing or eating individually. And then desert 😊, what a treat! Drinks are tasty too and they have a variety of wines as well.

★★★★★ 5.0 Illan Weiner · Aug 2025

Only first time visiting, and I'm EXTREMELY impressed. the steak salad I got was unbelievably good. I was truly shocked at the flavor and all. I saw smthng abt a meatball in their menu, def never getting that. but most of their stuff looks really good, so can't wait till my next visit! Just visited again!! Really happy w all the dishes. And the drinks were great! Just wish they uses an actual martini glass for their martini...
