    Everything was excellent including the food, the service and the value. We shared the Peking duck salad and it was delicious. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her Phuket jumbo shrimp and the wild boar was delicious. I've had the wild boar a few times before. The meat was expectedly gamey but a little less tender than I've enjoyed previously. But overall, the flavor was excellent. Our table was a little too close to the couple next to us but that didn't upset the dining experience at all.

    It is such a "delicious" place. It is a bit of French-Thai restaurant.The food was very good. We had Shrimp and crab rolls, chicken sate and seared tuna as apetizer. Everyhting was perfect. For main we had noodles and a seared tuna entree. everyhting was amazing. The seared tuna was spectacular. Very good desserts. The place is BYOB, so bring your favorite booz. The place is better than almost all NYC thai restaurants I visited. Service was spectacular. Definitely a place to keep goingt to.
