"The sauce/broth was a little too gravy like for me... lacked something in flavor."
"The calamari was a huge disappointment. We were sure it was a store bought product (from a bag)."
"The taste was of oil that was old."
"Tom yum soup, was only spicy with no hint of sour or lemongrass, coconut soup was disappointing."
"The veg fried was a sham, they had just put the mixed vegetables right out of the frozen bag and they have charged a big price."

Ambiance
Pros:

"We didn't see anyone help us for I would guess 30-45 minutes (this is after everyone was there)."
"The only reason for the 4 star instead of 5 is the table was very small."

"Total was $63!!! Totally ridiculous! The prices have soared."
"The portion sizes are small for the price."
"Considering location and food portion, itβs overpriced."
