    Chef Sontaya is one of the best in town. He proved with his menu that once can be transported to southeast Asia without flying. Keep it up. Will come back and recommend definitely.

    Very good food and very affordable. Thursday night is very busy with good ambiance although look. The crowd tend to be British and they migrate to Heros after 23:30

    Great food and matching cocktails to go with it. Not usually a fan of dessert, but would recommend their jasmine tea cream brûlée, wow.

    Wasabi prawns are to die for & the Vietnamese spring rolls. Felt the duck was on the dry side. Fav main dish was the beef pepper soooo good!

    Can't go wrong with Cho Gao. Great Asian food. I love the Penang, Masaman, Pad Thai, Char Kwai Theow, and Soft Shell Crab Salad.

    Just tried Japanese starter something with wasabi and shrimps. Lovely! Fresh juice instead doesn't look like fresh at all. Prices are about average and above. Waiting noodles. Expecting something nice

    Lunch special ("Hari Kasih") changes every day. It's a good value for 50 AED++ with unlimited Ice Tea refills... Today was a fresh salad, rice with some ginger sea food mix... Value for money!

    They are short on proper vegetarian noodles, and the music is quite loud. On the other hand this is a good place for enjoying in asian food.

    Went for the lunch special. It was beef in a bowl of soupy sauce with lots of garlic & layer of oil. Didn't leave a great impression but will try something else next time

    Sorry, but I found the experience a completely underwhelming event. The dumplings are particularly disappointing. Singapore noodles are ok. Service v friendly.
