We were driving through and found this place on line. The reviews were great, and rightfully so. We ate at 2:45pm on a Saturday. The service was exceptional and the food was delicious. I had the Char Kway Teow with chicken (with no spice). 10/10
I like they brought a little fruit plate with our bill.

We lived 13 years in Asia. This is the best Asian food restaurant we have dined at since our return many years ago. The service is great, the food is authentically superb and the atmosphere is warm and clean. Highly recommend without hesitation.

Diner Review №17

We had a wonderful time last night at Banana Leaves restaurant with a group of friends. We really enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and service. My favorites were Curry Laksa, stir fried eggplant with tofu, Mee Goreng with beef, and the Malaysian fried rice. Everything was soo good 😋

Diner Review №18

Banana Leaves of Madison is a fantastic Asian restaurant that truly excels in every aspect! From the moment you walk in, the clean and welcoming atmosphere sets the tone for a wonderful dining experience. The service is impeccable—efficient, friendly, and attentive.

The food is phenomenal. The sushi is fresh and masterfully prepared, a true delight for sushi lovers. I especially enjoyed the Spicy Mango Chicken; the sweet and tangy flavors combined with the perfect amount of spice make it a standout dish.

If you’re looking for a place that offers great food, excellent service, and a vibrant yet relaxing atmosphere, Banana Leaves is the spot to visit. Highly recommend for both casual meals and special occasions!

I really enjoyed the food. We ordered mango chicken, chicken katsu, the Malaysian style fried rice, and some sushi. Enjoyed it so much I came back the next night to try even more. Delicious!

Diner Review №21

This place is great. They have a variety of dishes, and all of them are delicious. The Beef Chow Fun, Singapore Noodles and Roti Canai were excellent. This is a great restaurant to try a multitude of great tasting Asian cuisine from multiple countries.

Diner Review №22

Diner Review №27

I've been several times at lunch. Some of the newer menu items are my favorite. The pork with chili peppers and kung pao are delicious. Some of the items I had on the original menu, I liked with varying degrees. The pad thai and pineapple fried rice were fine, but a bit bland. I love the atmosphere. It is relaxing and clean.

Diner Review №30

Really delicious. I was at the hotel for three days and ate there every day.

Diner Review №31

The place is very immaculate and has an up scale look. The older gentleman that puts together the sushi is very articulate, and you can tell it's a passion of his.

The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Also, if you're picking up an order, it is quick and when you get home with the food it's still hot and fresh.

Diner Review №32

First time here, and it was a nice atmosphere. Very clean, love the menus, and the food was amazing. The prices were really great and i love how they give you free fresh fruit at the end of the meal which i wasn't expecting. While it is located on the side of a hotel and opens into the lobby, it's still a very pleasant atmosphere. You should definitely try it.

Diner Review №33

Tucked inside Best Western Plus off Madison’s Blvd this restaurant is just awesome. Terrific hospitality, delicious food, no loud music and the food offerings include a fusion of Malaysian, Thai and Indonesian delicacies. We enjoyed and will Visit again.

Diner Review №34

We tried Banana Leaves for the first time- ordered online for pickup. The restaurant itself was older, but looked clean. The service was quick and nice, so no complaints there, but the FOOD. Ugh! We ordered the Tom Kha soup, and the Tom Yum soup. Both were ok, but if you’ve had good Tom Kha, this was watered down and had no tangy, sweet coconut flavor. The Tom Yum, same (watered down), but with added red pepper, so a little spicier.

We got the spicy crunchy shrimp roll, and it was good. The only good thing we had.

We also got the Malaysian chicken satay. The chicken was good, but “bouncy”, you’ll see what I mean about this later. The issue here was with the sauce. The peanuts were very stale. If you have had peanut butter that’s been in the cupboard way too long, you understand what I mean.

For entrees, my husband got the Spicy Mango Chicken, and I got the Baba Malay Curry. They must’ve used a cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce, bc both were not very flavorful at all. And we asked for extra spicy. The Baba Malay Curry looked so creamy in the picture, but the sauce was translucent, and tasted super watered-down. I had to add both table salt and soy sauce to it, for it to not be so bland. The chicken had a spongy, rubbery texture on both entrees that is making me pray that we didn’t get food poisoning. It was such an odd texture. The spicy mango chicken tasted only slightly better, but was also strangely lacking in flavor. The steamed rice was good. The Thai tea was good. The rest sucked, and I’m sad we wasted money on it. I have a newborn, so money is tight, and eating out is a luxury. I’m super bummed about this one.

Diner Review №35

Great restaurant! Good menu friendly staff. I love having a place like this so close by.

Diner Review №36

First time trying this place tonight and it was delicious! We got the Pad Thai, Roni Canai, Gyoza, and Thai tea to go. Everything was fresh and tasted great. The service was also excellent when entering the restaurant. Definitely recommend giving this place a try!

Diner Review №37

Came to Banana Leaves with our two kids. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food was worth fighting the Madison traffic to get to. The Roti, Thai Tea, and Shrimp dumplings were a few of the amazing items on the menu.

Diner Review №38

Hands down, the best sushi meal we have ever had. Sashimi deluxe- Amazing!! The service was great- the teamwork to make sure we had everything was above and beyond.

Diner Review №39

Diner Review №40

Great food. Got it to go because not really feeling like eating at a place attached to a hotel

Diner Review №41

The food and service were fantastic! The term hidden gem is an understatement. We were skeptical with the location but do not be alarmed. We got the curry laksa, roti canai, and pineapple fried rice. All very good! The laksa has an amazing coconut and lemon grass broth. The roti canai is so light and airy. We will definitely go back.

Diner Review №42

Thai fried rice is amazingly delicious 😋.

Diner Review №43

Food and service was Amazing!!! The Atmosphere was so cool!! Definitely a must try 👍

Diner Review №45

We originally found Banana Leaves through Uber Eats. They offer great savings and free food through this delivery service. We finally visited the restaurant in person, and were a little off-put by the Italian relics from the past, but we were pleased once we entered the dining room. Also note, it is attached to a hotel and accessible through the lobby. Our server was kind, attentive, and evenspoke Chinese with my partner. The food was amazing in person (it is with delivery too). Prices are fair. It is overall a great Japanese restaurant.

Diner Review №46

I didn’t realize it was attached to a hotel but it was still decent food. Very reasonable prices too. The curry was more of a soup, and there was a little bit of miscommunication with the server that took a long time to even tale our order. But once we got our food, it was all very tasty

Diner Review №47

One of our favorite restaurants! My husband gets something different just about everytime and everything is always amazing! There's an extensive menu, food is full of flavor; topped with a quiet cozy setting! A must try in the Madison area!

Diner Review №48

Nice and atmospheric Asian restaurant.

Was staying in the hotel attached in the same building and went for dinner. Solid, delicious food and variety on the menu.

Diner Review №49

First time my daughter and I, we had the most delicious lunch meal in Asian cuisine in awhile, We ordered the Shrimp and pork pad Thai and it came with rice and we ordered several types of different sushi and enjoyed a cocktail too

Diner Review №50

Diner Review №51

Very sweet girl at counter.

Diner Review №52

Diner Review №53

I really enjoyed dining at Banana Leaves. My party had Crab rangoon, Pad Thai and a sushi dish. The pad Thai was good and the sushi was good also. We just had basic California rolls for the Maki, but it tasted very fresh. Same fir the nigiri, particularly the salmon. The Wasabi was pretty zingy- most Wasabi I try isn't very strong. The only negatives I would say is thad the salad that came with my meal was very small and that the beer could have been colder. The service was also very good. I look forward to coming back to dine here again.

Diner Review №54

We were visiting the area and decided to try here for dinner. Sushi and drunken noodles were the best we have ever had!!!!!! So fresh and priced right. So good that we decided not to try somewhere different the next night and came back for dinner again. Will be back when in the area.

Diner Review №55

Wish we lived closer because we'd definitely go again.

Diner Review №56

Excellent new place in Madison. I don’t think a lot of people know about this place, but it truly is a hidden gem! Love the Roti Canai and the drunken noodle. The server is very friendly as well. Overall, a great dining experience!

Diner Review №57

I ordered once before and it was amazing. I was beyond disappointed when I got this order. Supposedly it was going to be a bento box but I got Thai chicken that was run over into the plain ( not jasmine) rice and a soggy gross egg roll. Soup was ver disappointing also. Would have been better to have gotten a plain Chinese takeout today.

Diner Review №58

Best food around. 5/5

Diner Review №59

Very quaint, attentive service, and clean environment. We will definitely visit again, great for date night.

Diner Review №60

I love Banana Leaves! I've been twice and both times they did not disappoint. It was clean, the cuisine was on point, and the service was impeccable. I ordered a seaweed salad, Tom kha soup, and Pad Thai with Tofu the first time. The second time I ordered Singapore noodles which were superb. They also served complimentary fruit with the meal which was an added bonus. It was beautifully plated and a refreshing treat. I was truly blown away that such an impressive restaurant was located inside of a Best Western Hotel. That is not an insult to Best Western, it was just a pleasant surprise!

Diner Review №61

Don't let the Best Western scare you away, this place is awesome! I wanted some quick sushi for lunch and they did not disappoint. The restaurant was very nice and clean and the service was great. Prices were reasonable. They even have some Malaysian options and some spicier alternatives that you can't find elsewhere in Huntsville.

Diner Review №62

Nice spot attached to hotel. Great service

Diner Review №63

Diner Review №64

We've seen Banana Leaves open up shop for several months now, but we're always skeptical about the location tucked away in the Best Western. I'm super glad we ventured in and explored the menu. The inside was newly renovated and clean, and the staff was super friendly and attentive.

Our family of 4 grabbed an early dinner here grabbing a little bit of everything off the menu. The appetizers came out fresh and hot (dumplings, gyoza and roti canai). Kids scarfed down the roti rather quickly but the small silver I had was tasty (flaky bread with a slight sweetness to it) esp with the curry dipping sauce. This will be a staple moving forward.

The soups were on point and not overly salty like some places (miso and tom yum). The tom yum had a nice spice/heat to it, which i enjoy) but the wife prefers creamier tom yums.

We ended up trying the sushi (few standard sashimis and a spider roll). My daughter professes that this was her favorite spider roll ever. It was standard sushi. Nothing Wow (the spider roll was good), but also nothing bad. If i was jonesing for sushi and here, i'd get it again. But some of the Tuna/yellowtaill seemed fishy.

We also got the chicken katsu, some malaysian noodles and the eggplant/tofu. They were all tasty and phenomenal. The highlights for us were the eggplant/tofu and my son's katsu.

so glad we've got another asian option on this side of madison. Don't be scared of the best western, Banana Leaves was a welcomed pleasant surprise for us and will be repeat customers. 5 stars overall for service, environment and food. The food itself is probably around. 4 star place for huntsville.

Diner Review №65

The rainbow roll, spider roll, Bali tofu (fried and topped with peanut sauce, sprouts, and sliced cucumber), and the fried shrimp were DELICIOUS! The service is friendly, professional, and efficient. We chose this as a convenient restaurant near the airport, but it’s worth coming back to try even more delicious food. Highly recommend!

Diner Review №66

Diner Review №67

Delicious food and great service! My meal was made for my dietary restrictions.

Diner Review №68

Tôi thích wasabi ở đây, cay nồng, ăn với sashimi rất ngon.
Các con tôi mê món kem chiên và bánh mochi, ngon tuyệt vời

Diner Review №69

Excellent sushi and customer service! We are borderline sushi snobs :). Generous cuts of flavorful fish on each nigiri/roll. Even the California rolls taste amazing. Looks like they take pride in their work. Our new go to for sushi. Will be back to try the other cuisines.

Diner Review №70

My friend Marina brought me here. As we drive, she said "didn't let the Best Western sign scare you. It is some of the best Asian/Thai food. She was spot on! Very flavorful food came out quickly along with thoughtful and friendly service.

Diner Review №71

Great place, excellent food and service. definitely recommend!

Diner Review №72

Nicely renovated restaurant with comfortable seating in the Best Western. Great service and food, which was totally unexpected for a random hotel restaurant. The food here is a mix of pan Asian cuisine, with Japanese, Chinese, Thai, Malaysian, Indian, and other cultures probably that I just can't name off the top of my head represented.

I've been twice and the food was excellent both times. Same waitress who is totally lovely. I highly recommend the roti with curry appetizer and the crazy roll if you like a fried sushi (it's a gut bomb but a delicious one). Their Thai tea is perfect, just the way it should be. It's not a fine dining sort of level of quality, but it's very solid food at a great price. You really get a ton of food on any dish too. I was surprised how many pieces of sushi came with the lunch special.

They're also very kind about allergies and will listen/confirm anything you need changed.

Diner Review №73

Ok people, listen up!!! If you want sushi that is amazing here is your place. For appetizers we had the Crab Rangoon, Roti Canai and Shrimp Wonton. The Roti Canai had great flavor but the curry was very liquidity. Wish is was thicker for better dipping with the Roti. The Roti itself was the closest to West Indian Buss up Roti with out going to a Caribbean spot. We had the California Roll with fresh Crabmeat and much to our surprise is was STUFFED with REAL crabmeat, not imitation anything for only $7.50! I could not believe it. We also had the Soft Shell Crab Roll and the Shrimp Tempura roll. Both were very delicious. The Lemonade was so good and very refreshing and the Thai Tea was quite distinctive. Sweet and creamy with spices reminiscent of Chai tea. The customer service was AMAZING. The lady who took my to go order was a pure sweetheart. She had a wonderful personality and was very helpful. I will definitely be back sooner then later. Thank you all for such a great dinner experience.

Diner Review №74

Excellent food and service. Will try the sushi next time. Lots of food! Had to take some home.

Diner Review №75

Food was perfection! Tried 5 different dishes and they were each ideal representations of the item. Service was impeccable

Diner Review №76

Excellent food and service!

Diner Review №77

I travel all over the US for work. This has got to be one of the best restaurants I have eaten at. The prices are insanely cheap for the quality and quantity of food you get. Wish this place was close to my home, I would eat here everyday.

Diner Review №78

Excellent food and great service! A new gem for Madison county!

Diner Review №79

The food was wonderful and fresh.Mango Tango roll was great and the crispy garlic shrimp was perfect.

Diner Review №80

VERY good. Clean, tasty and attentive service. Believe they are new, so happy to highly recommend!

Diner Review №81

I visited while during their soft opening. Cannot reccomend their Spider Roll enough, let's get that out of the way first and foremost. My waitress for the evening was sweet, attentive, kind, also a very warm and inviting smile. How could you not want to come back and want to sit down to enjoy an incredible Asian fusion (Thai/Japanese ) meal with such a beautiful atmosphere? Meals are priced fairly $10-$20, Light and refreshing, My appetizer, cucumber salad, had just the right amount acidity, heat, and lightness as an opening course. Paired with my Spider roll, and chicken had thai (very large portion that i definitely had to take with me) , I left full and satisfied.

Diner Review №82

We were visiting our son and his family and decided to give Banana Leaves a try. The food was great and the service was cheerful and good. We would get take-out from there again in a heartbeat.

Diner Review №83

The service was amazing. We will definitely be back!

Diner Review №84

Diner Review №85

Went during their soft opening and the food was fantastic!

Diner Review №86

Good food, pineapple fried rice was good…friendly staff! Recommend if in Huntsville!

Diner Review №87

Delicious Food only wishes it was not that far out from the city.

Diner Review №88

Excellent food, menu, and service!

Diner Review №89

Another hidden gem in Huntsville if you want best quality experience of Sushi and try some real authentic Asian food within budget of $4 appetizers to a $12-23 fresh delicious sushi entrè.
Sushi entrè comes in with hot miso soup and vegies.

Most ordes are already good for two- three persons. You should come with empty stomach to enjoy your meal.

Recommended food:

📍all sushi - 5/5 or more comes with house salad and miso soup
📍tom kha soup - 4.5 ( it is SPICY) as the server if don’t want it spicy
📍fried shumai- 5/5 comes in 6 pieces
📍tuna lover ( RAW) 5/5 - so fresh comes with soup and house salad
📍curry laksa 5/5- recommendable for VEGAN people
📍pad thai - 4.5 /5 so authetic ask the server if you don’t want it spicy

Diner Review №90

This place is awesome, don't let its connection to the Best Western turn you away. Service was incredibly nice, sushi was amazing, and it's no problem to ask for a substitution. I asked for a tuna roll sub on my Sushi Deluxe. Unfortunately this place doesn't seem to have much business, so stop by and check it out!

Diner Review №91

Banana Leaves on Madison Blvd is a nice little Asian restaurant. Everyone is extremely nice, the atmosphere is quaint and cozy, and they have big portions for little price. It's a little difficult to see as it's connected to the Best Western building on the left hand side, but it is worth checking out! You won't be disappointed.

Diner Review №92

Thumbs up for the service offered by the crew here. Food really nice, perhaps similar to the taste from Southeast Asia. Small fruit platter been served after the meal.

Diner Review №93

Great food at a great price!!! I had the Curry Laksa which was absolutely delicious and a Spicy Crunchy Salmon Roll which was also very good.

Diner Review №94

Fantastic food. Delicious and fresh consistently. Steak Teriyaki, Crab Rangoon, Dragon roll and seaweed salad are all my favorites.

Diner Review №95

Diner Review №96

Cute little place, staff was friendly but it was not our cup of tea. Food was NOT good.. sushi wasn't cold, tasted like nothing really and the avocado was smooshy and the crab Rangoon just tasted like grease.

Diner Review №97

Food was amazing and spicy
drunken noodles and roti canai. Good Luck

Diner Review №98

I ordered pick up and the food was super delicious! Sushi rolls, Yoki noodles, Mochi was very good. Great service, new store, and make sure to leave a big tip 👍

Diner Review №99

Soft opening, Food was flavorful, Hot, the Staff were on time, the price was good, I wish them luck!

Diner Review №100

Its inside the Best Western. We came for lunch. The food and appetizers were really good. The service was good. It wasn't noisy. They had soft paino music playing in the background. It was easy to have a conversation. Would definitely come back.

Diner Review №101

It’s surprising that the food is quite tasty, especially the lasak is authentic. I have never found any Asian restaurant served Lasak in Madison county. And for this price, the dishes are plentiful and good. We certainly will go frequently in the future!

Diner Review №102

Check your takeout order carefully if you pay online and pickup at the restaurant. Don't take their word for it and leave expecting your order to be accurate. This place left out an entire roll and couldn't figure out how to refund the cost once we called back.

Update:
All problems were dealt with. Refund was given.
This business wants to have good relations with customers.
Updated first impression of review.

Diner Review №103

With an Asian husband we are always looking for good Asian food. This was the best Asian food we have eaten since moving to the area. We will definitely be back!!

Diner Review №104

Our server was friendly, attentive, and accommodating. The Basil chicken was delicious with the white rice, and the Thai fried rice was light in oil content compared to most fried rice, which I liked, but flavorful. Also, the shrimp tempura roll was very good but I would ask them to cut them into 5 or 6 pieces instead of 4. Other than that it was a great experience and I'll definitely be going back.

Diner Review №105

Diner Review №106

This restaurant is literally a hidden gem. They are located inside Best Western hotel, which can easily be missed driving by. But, the food is amazingly tasty. We ordered the Curry Laksa, Chicken Katsu, and Pad Thai. Friendly service and a nice atmosphere for eating in. Must try it if you haven't yet.

Diner Review №107

Chicken satay, shumai, gyoza, chicken teriyaki and California roll were very good. Scallion pancakes were greasy and mushy. Karage was soggy, greasy and not seasoned at all. VERY disappointed. Steak teriyaki has too much fat on it- most had to be thrown away. Roti canai was flavorful.

Diner Review №108

The fusion of Asian cuisine shines here in full color. Top quality ingredients make all the difference. A table full of men who hail from Panang, Malaysia were there and are regular cusomers and my friend, a world traveler said "finally, Tom Kha soup worth writing about". To curry or not to curry....either way, you will find a terrific Asian inspired meal here.

Diner Review №109

Diner Review №110

Food was good but the calamari wasn’t my favorite. It was soaked with grease to the point it didn’t have a single crisp. They did have some of the best Yaki Udon I’ve tasted so far. Wish the portions were a little bit larger for the prices.

Diner Review №111

Diner Review №112

Great food, very clean, good service, will be back again.

Diner Review №115

We enjoyed this new restaurant! Definitely will be back!

Diner Review №116

DELICIOUS! I saw this new restaurant a couple weeks ago while trying to find something for dinner but they were closed. So, finally made it. And it did not disappoint. I ordered both the roti canai and crab Rangoon since I couldn't decide. Will absolutely order both again. Decided on the sushi deluxe combo that comes with 4 sushi and a California roll. And the Thai chicken basil. Again...everything looked good. The menu isn't very large but there are plenty of options. The sushi was delicious (Wasabi was on pont!). I subbed the onions and bell peppers for cabbage in the thai basil and had combination with chicken, beef. And shrimp. I also let them know that I had a food allergy and the waitress was made sure there wasn't any cross contamination. The staff was very attentive and made sure I was happy with my order. Unfortunately, there were only 3 other patrons while I was there. I gave atmosphere 4 stars, only because the music that was playing was a little loud. The restaurant was very clean. I don't think they have their alcohol license yet, but I think their business will pick up more once it is. I can't say enough for how great my experience has been. Will definitely come back!

Diner Review №117

I recently dined at Banana Leaves and was pleased with the experience. The laksa was good, and while not the best I've had, it was a rare find in Huntsville. The roti canai was also very tasty and highly recommended.

The staff were kind and welcoming, even offering us a free coconut sago dessert sample. For those in the area looking for hard-to-find Southeast Asian dishes, Banana Leaves is definitely worth a visit.

Ordered takeout. Sushi and Thai. Food was excellent across the board. Service was unbelievable. Super nice people.

Diner Review №120

Diner Review №121

Very fresh food, very attentive service, good presentation, very clean, and some bits of uniqueness that gave it an overall very pleasurable experience. We incidentally happened into their soft opening. Glad we did. Menu is great and I think that they have the capability to grow and show us new things. We'll be back.

Diner Review №122

I had the curry Laksa and it was VERY good. The restaurant was clean and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend.

Diner Review №123

The food was great, We loved the Thai fried rice and the sushi rolls were on point too.
Our waitress was really nice and we had a great experience
The only thing is the location was a little hidden and hard to recognize the sign.

Diner Review №124

Service was great! Atmosphere was peaceful. Food was authentic and tasty. We ordered the crunchy spicy tuna roll, pad Thai and ice jelly for dessert. We'll be returning. Don't be detoured by its location (attached to a Best Western). Do yourself a favor and go!

Diner Review №125

The food was delicious and perfectly prepared. They were very generous with the protein! Service as awesome, the vibes were nice, everything was very clean. Will definitely be a regular here.

Diner Review №126

This new restaurant has beautiful renovations. I ordered calamari w/ spicy mayo sauce which tastes really good. The food is served fast.

Diner Review №127

Delicious food and very attentive staff. It's a hidden gem!

Diner Review №128

It was a really pleasant dining experience, the place was clean and the waitress was really sweet.

Diner Review №129

My order was delivered wrong and when the “correct” order came, it was sliced through bone so I got a nice surprise. And undercooked. Pork undercooked = yuck

Diner Review №130

Tried for the first time today and got the shrimp wonton and kaarage appetizers. They were so sweet and even threw in a miso soup! Highly recommend!

Diner Review №131

Stopped by for a speedy lunch and was pleasantly surprised! Opted for sushi rolls, karage, and Thai tea, and each dish was bursting with freshness and flavor. The staff was fantastic, guiding me through the menu. Excited to explore more of their offerings on my next visit!

Diner Review №132

Came in for lunch for a quick bite. I got some sushi rolls, karage, and Thai tea. Everything tastes so fresh and flavorful! The staff was also very helpful in the menu selection. I’m glad to see another Asian restaurant in the area. Can’t wait to come back to try more items off their menu!

Diner Review №133

We discovered this little restaurant tonight. It is located in the Best Western Plus on Madison Blvd. We had the chicken Satay for an appetizer, the chicken Katsu, chicken teriyaki, the Eggplant and Tofu stirfry and a mango and coconut milk dessert. All the food was delicious and the staff were very nice! Their food variety includes food from Indonesia, Japan (including sushi), Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, and China. I would recommend you visit if you are Near the Madison area!

Diner Review №134

Neat atmosphere, very clean, great waitstaff, and delicious food!

Diner Review №135

I noticed this restaurant tucked away near the Best Western Plus. They have a mixture of cuisine from Southeast Asia with a generous vegetarian and vegan selection (clearly marked). I was greeted pleasantly when I entered and offered a choice of seating (booth or table), and informed that today was the 3rd day that they had been open for. They have some tables outside that are presently not open for service, but plan to be in the future. Menus are already at each table and staff are willing to give you additional as well. Prices are fairly standard when compared to similar restaurants. Portions are good as well.

I sampled several different items here. The Thai tea wasn’t excessively sweet and had a good flavor profile. There was a large amount of ice that I wasn’t fond of. I received 5 crab rangoons, which had a good layer of cream cheese and real crab meat. Most restaurants, if not all, I’ve been to have a sweet cream cheese layer. I liked that it was more savory than sweet, and the real crab meat also stood out. It pairs extremely well with the sauce. The chicken satay is out of this world. It’s good enough to eat by itself, and pairs really well with the peanut sauce. The chicken karaage is juicy and has some crunch as well from the breading. The sauce is also a nice touch.

For the main entree, I ordered a Baba Malay Curry Chicken. It had a good amount of spice for the standard customer, and suggested to staff that they have an option to increase spice level for fellow spice lovers. The curry itself was delectable, the chicken, tofu, and vegetable blend was hearty, and I could eat that all day. There was a significant portion of curry compared to rice. I would have wanted the option for brown rice, if possible. For dessert, I ordered an ice jelly. This was totally new for me. It was a gelatinous dessert garnished with mango, pineapple, and a brown sugar syrup. It was not overtly sweet, and the fruit/syrup went well with the jelly.

I plan to come back here for dinner to try the sushi and some of the other items. It seems like a great date night spot. This restaurant introduces a lot of dishes that the Huntsville/Madison area doesn’t have.

Today, my friends and I had the pleasure of trying the exquisite flavors of Southeast Asia at your restaurant on its opening day. The Drunken Noodle, Baba Malay Curry Chicken, and Thai Fried Rice were exceptional, each bursting with authentic taste and perfectly balanced spices. It's evident that your culinary expertise shines through in every dish. Thank you for such a delightful dining experience, and we can't wait to return to savor more of your delicious creations!
