Get the branzino if you like flavors like tamarind and lime , crispy shallots and flavorful spice; wok-fried shrimp if you love spicy ; vegetable platter with the assorted curries is the best to share

I thought I was walking into some usual hipster place that won’t taste good, I ended up way impressed! DELICIOUS (crab fried rice , lobster pad thai , mushroom curry , cocktails ). Generous portions !

Neelu Ravi

The whole fish is delicious. Order it only if you are a fan of spicy and tangy food! Waiters are absolutely friendly and accommodating. Please note, this is not a steak house????. Think before u order!

Carol

Great food meant to be shared family style . They have outdoor seating which is nice for groups and the service was fab! Basil lemonade was tart and I loved every dish! Def get Brussels sprouts

Wayla is truly unparalleled. Excellent Thai food with an even better cocktail menu . A top add on the list of amazing Thai spots in the city . Has a rustic vibe yet neat & upscale with courteous service

Alex Robertson

Definitely worth the “like”. Chicken , crab fried rice , papaya salad , and wings all great. The pork noodle meatballs stole the show tho. Good cocktails ($16)

Natalie LeMoss

Wow. The best Thai food ever. Incredible options, the curry is definitely a favorite. Lots of cocktails and non alcoholic drinks to satisfy all.

Jonathan Ngandu

Awesome date spot ! very tasty food and friendly staff . 2 sides/starters and 1 main to share is all the food you need

Andres Altamirano

Very good for a group, the dishes r family style so@u can buy 2 / 3 dishes and ur set. Very awesome place.

Ernesto Gutierrez

Looking for a date spot , this is the place. More ambiance than cuisine, the highlights were the crab fried rice and the fish . The ribs , calamari and fried chicken were fine but not worth the visit.

Nicole Gerszberg

Incredible drinks. Can’t go wrong on any of the dishes!

Caroline

Bangkok street food . Thai-style fried chicken and a grilled flank steak with basil fried rice . Drinks come from Anthony Bakery , formerly of the Aviary

This place is over hyped. The crab fried rice was fishy and the steak for $42 was just an average steak . Fish cheeks is way better.
