Cool Thai restaurant in Dunwoody. I recommend lobster pad Thai and lemon velvet cake. Lobster pad thai can be little pricy (MP) but it was so juicy and flavorful and good amount of portions. They also have house made lemon cake that is not too sweet and it was just best lemon cake i ever had! My server was super friendly and helpful and she constantly checked on us. They have plenty of parking for parking deck but the free validation is only for two hours. So.. to enjoyed the dessert, I had to paid the parking.

They add gratuity on the bill without informing. And when I complained to the manager, I got attitude. Won't return. In response to your reply: I'm not going to allow you to put up lies on here about me. I Never said I don't tip over 3%! I said not everyone can afford 18%! Also, I was Never informed about gratuity prior to getting the bill. And lose the attitude! Talking to a customer this way...

The ambiance is really nice, live band, 3 min massage while waiting on food, beautiful decorations but the food was meh I had the mushrooms with a side of Jasmine rice and coconut ice cream. The drinks were good and expensive. They charged us an extra $30 to have our own cake for my friend’s birthday it was the typical Instagram restaurant probably won’t be going back but the experience was nice. Oh Gratuity is already added on your check too. There were just 4 of us. Dietary restrictions: If you have a gluten allergy don’t bother going

Excellent food even better service. Pao our waiter was amazing. Will definitely be back.. thanks Pao

This place has a nice aesthetically pleasing set up my server was great but the food to me is just okay. I had wontons and the crust they use is very chewy the filling is good but the dough used threw it off for me . I’d give it a 6. I had the dumplings as well they were decent I give it a 8. Then I had the duck noodles which was okay I’d give it a 7.5. overall I’d give this place a 7.5 for the price you pay it isn’t a place I’d visit again. But that’s just my opinion

The ambience of the restaurant is nice and the live performer was talented (although the music was a little loud and it was hard to hear others at the table). The food was average - appetizer platter was excellent, but most of the entrees we ordered were mediocre. The server had far too many tables and as such, was inattentive.
