Cute open seating area. The couch was comfy though a bit low. Utensils were cute. Shaved ice was well made with extra sauce in the center and on the side. Roti was delicious though a bit over fried for me. Thai tea sauce is delicious New savory menu items. Nuggets were okay. Peach soda tastes a bit too much like canned peaches. Mango shaved ice still best after trying piña colada and strawberry.

Not sure what happened, but there was just a major change here. The kind waiter has been replaced by walk-up counter service. They got rid of the nice green couch. The ceramic plates and golden cutlery have been replaced by disposable plastic utensils and paper cups/plates. They no longer bring water with your dessert. The menu has been scaled back and portion sizes have decreased.

Came here with a group of friends after work, and our experience definitely could've been better. When we wanted to order, we had to wait a bit before we can order because the person at the counter seemed busy on their phone. The desserts were okay, nothing special. Not sure if I'd come again given their price point, but their interior is definitely pretty nice.
