★★★★★ 5.0 Adriana Vannucci · Feb 2026

Phenomenal experience from start to finish! My husband and I celebrated my birthday here for lunch, and we couldn’t have chosen a better spot. It was our first visit since they opened, and now we’re wondering why we waited so long. The Pla Neung Manow was the star of the show, absolutely stunning in presentation and just as incredible in flavor. My husband had the red curry, which was rich and perfectly balanced, and we split the crying tiger, which was cooked beautifully and packed with flavor. The yuzu lemonade was so refreshing and the perfect complement to the meal. The lunch special is an amazing value, and both the food and atmosphere are beautiful. The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely helpful. We will absolutely be back!

It was an amazing experience. I came in for a quick bite and everything was perfect. They had a live band as well. Friendly service with nice decor. We ordered the Harbor & Similan Sunset for the cocktails , the Soft Shell Crab & Chicken Satay for appetizers , the Massaman Curry & Short Rib w/ Spicy Noodles for entrees and the Lemon Came & Sorbet for dessert .

Loved the food, the atmosphere, and the staff! The restaurant has booth seats with live music and a view by the water. We celebrated my sister's birthday and they came out with a candle on our dessert and a glowing sign to sung to her. It was such a nice experience!

★★★★★ 5.0 Veronica Velasquez · Mar 2026

Such a great time ! The space is clean, wonderful ambiance, and the food is so delicious. Glad to have such fresh flavors in the neighborhood and with a sunset view. Ordered the chive pancakes, mangosteen salad, goong Karee, and Pla Lui Suan. Everything was amazing and the portions are very good. Definitely will go back. Puifai was our server, she was welcoming, had great recommendations, and very patient with my toddler.
