The Drunken yakisoba is my go-to! I always enjoy my time here! Great service from the friendly staff, delicious drinks, and fresh ingredients π I also really enjoy the cucumber salad, mango sticky rice, gyoza, and the Rose Lychee Mule Cocktail!
Canβt wait to come back in againπ
We were delightfully surprised with live music and I really loved the atmosphere. Like a dive bar but clean lol. And intentional decor/design so it was pretty but still welcoming. I can see myself stopping by all dressed up or in sweats and a hoodie π The staff were also really attentive and fast and cool and what more could you ask for. Last but not least, both the food and drinks were so yummy π©π€ The menu had not just a lot of variety: every item on it made my mouth water. Like I love meat but even the vegan and vegetarian options looked good?? I guess I just have to go back 4235621147 times to see π΄ππ₯’

My bf said: "it's a vibe. The food was really good. And I think that bartender liked AOT"
Soil 705 !! Wow !! I was amazed at the quality of the food and service. Very friendly staff that are knowledgeable and helpful for someone who hasn't been exposed to a lot of this type of menu. My only regret is not taking more pics to share. The Food !! My goodness, the food. The flavors were on point for sure. If I'm being picky, the beef was slightly overcooked in my dish, but the flavor was so good I didn't mind. The rice was mild, but oh, so good. My biggest surprise was the cucumber salad. I couldn't believe that something so simple as a cucumber could be elevated to that level. Absolutely amazing on the food and service for sure . The atmosphere I only give slight shade to, because at one point, the light went down to a really low level. I could hardly see my plate. But I think because the sun was so bright outside, it was hard to see in such low lighting inside. I believe if it was dark outside, then it would have seemed brighter inside. I guess I will have to go back later in the evening to see and get the cucumber salad and something new. Thank you, Soi 705, for the great experience and amazing food.
Really enjoyed lunch here. Nice selection of cocktails, wine and sake. Highly recommend the Moscow mule! Everything we ordered was cooked great, full of flavor. The ambiance and overall atmosphere is pretty dark, like a hole in the wall, but plenty of people,so it was more lively than I thought it would be. Definitely will return, they have great happy hour deals, looks like a good spot for a small group meeting.
Had the chicken pad Thai, fried rice, and cheese puffs. The cheese puffs were very yummy and came with a good sweet sauce. Fried rice was okay. Chicken pad Thai was fresh and hot. It was my first time having pad Thai so canβt really compare it to anything else. The mochi were okay. I liked the flavor of the yellow and the texture of the pink. I went in because I want the K dog, but they didnβt have it so tried a few different things. Overall I would go again and try some other things. They had a good selection of different dishes. Server was very nice and quick.
Came here to see Faith and Bobby play and was pleasantly surprised by the food. Good flavor but not spicy at all which is why I love Thai food. All the dishes I saw come out looked great and was presented well. Small place. We loved all the old movie posters which was fun. They were short staffed but the servers were working hard and doing her best and that is all that matters. Thank you
Pretty good food, terrible service. Everyone working seemed to overlook my family. I couldn't get the attention of servers walking right past me. I stood at the window at the counter, and an employee looking at tickets finished what she was doing and walked away without acknowledging me. We opted to take our food to go. I wanted to walk out but my husband didn't want to go somewhere else and have to wait again.

Really awesome spot. Incredible kimchi and porkbelly. Topped with a fried egg. Loved it.
This place SLAPS!!! The food was extraordinarily delicious, and the service was impeccable. Everything I had was cooked to perfection, and I will be becoming a regular here. Situated in the eclectic plaza at the end of Lee Blvd in downtown Richland, the vibes are really chill, and the Tsing Tao is ice cold! I will be there Sunday to try their noodles, and have another helping of their ethereal Mango Sticky Rice for dessert. I am so glad I found this place, and LIVE music will begin happening this month during dinner service on Thursdays and Sundays after the 9th. Best Thai cuisine I have found in the Tri, cannot wait yo eat there, asap!!
Absolutely love this place. Third time there last night and Iβve ordered something different every time and everything was so good!! Highly recommend!
Nice atmosphere and a pretty diverse menu with lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Unfortunately the service is often slow and uneven and the food can be disappointing. Some nice cocktails.
This place is a new favorite. The cocktail menu is first rate and the menu creative and well prepared. A favorite.
Did a pick up order through Grubhub app. Food took 45-50 minutes which seemed long for our order (2 entrees and spring rolls), but we werenβt in a rush so wasnβt a big deal. Once we got our food home, we werenβt really disappointed in the flavors of the dishes. Got the drunken yakisoba and the green curry fried rice. Both were bland and lacked flavor or spice. Portion sizes were also small for the price. Spring rolls were average. But lacked much filling and were mostly lettuce. Overall, really wanted to like this place but the flavors were so bland, weβll likely go elsewhere for Thai food in Tricities.
A very nice small restaurant near out hotel. The food was an imaginative spin on Thai food. Also the drinks were good, especially the spin on a Sazerac. They were in the middle of a remodel so there were limits on the menu. But the staff was very accommodating with work arounds.
SOi has a great Asian beer selection to pair well with the Asian and Asian inspired food variety. I would recommend anyone that is wanting to try new take on classic Asian offerings.
Soi 705 is a great restaurant. The Asian fusion menu has lots of great options. The drinks are great, too. The staff is friendly and very attentive.
Really good Thai food! We be going back.
For $27 the portion of pinnacle fried rice isnβt enough for a 2 year old.
The food was to die for!! We stopped here on a whim and can say that I will absolutely return! Only had apps but it was bomb!
The Drunken yakisoba is my go-to! I always enjoy my time here! Great service from the friendly staff, delicious drinks, and fresh ingredients π I also really enjoy the cucumber salad, mango sticky rice, gyoza, and the Rose Lychee Mule Cocktail!
Canβt wait to come back in againπ
I love the food here, itβs SO good! But even more than the food, I love the vibe. Itβs chill & relaxed but you can tell the space is filled with some quirk, pride, and love. Highly recommend!
Just went in with my son. We were excited to try the food. It was dead. We sat down for five min and were not even offered water or a menu so we left. Poor service for sure and can't speak for the food since we were not offered any. Owner needs to find better workers
Great food, service lacking though. Had a good time anyway.
Very slow service. We had a table of 4 and had to wait 30-40 minutes for food and we were the only table. When the food came out two of our noodle dishes were under cooked and so was the fried rice. Only thing good was the lychee mule and the vibe of the restaurant.
Food was sooo good. Szechuan sizzler with beef 10/10
Good food. Very busy, lots of flavors going on. The menu reads as though it's for someone much younger than me.
Service was sub par. We arrived two hours before a play thinking we'd have plenty of time, and by the end we had to go to the front counter for our check to make sure we made it in time. There was a LONG delay between being seated and taking our order - we skipped ordering the appetizers we had planned because we figured they wouldn't make them in time. There were three people working front of house with maybe a half dozen tables filled, so staffing was not the issue. The waitress was polite and happy, just really slow.
Atmosphere was ok. It looked nice, but it was so dark inside that I had to use the lamp on the table to read the menu, in the middle of a bright, sunny day. It was also very loud; they need something to absorb some sound on the walls. I can't imagine being in there with a band playing.
Came here to see Faith and Bobby play and was pleasantly surprised by the food. Good flavor but not spicy at all which is why I love Thai food. All the dishes I saw come out looked great and was presented well. Small place. We loved all the old movie posters which was fun. They were short staffed but the servers were working hard and doing her best and that is all that matters. Thank you
So many flies in there.Too expensive. Music playlist was obnoxious. Maybe this place is too hip for me.
I will give this a good review only because my wife loves this place. She finally got me to go with her. The food was pretty good but even though the place was mostly empty it took awhile to come out. It's ok we weren't in a hurry. Go and try the drunken yakisoba, it's definitely worth it.
Updated below*
Came in to grab something for breakfast, the guy guy there is not wearing a mask so or trying to regardless of the sign on their front door. We seat ourselves at a table near the wall that had dried in food stuff to the table and got our menus. After ordering a tea the young man came back to say he doesn't have any oolong and my friend was talking to him when the phone range and he abruptly told us he had to go because the phone was ringing and left mid talk, needless to say we left and went somewhere else. Poor service was really the main factor on why we left, the kid is pretty young and is too formal for my taste I assume this is his first experience in this type of work. My suggestion for him is to loosen up and be more casual/friendly. Second make sure your tables are clean, and third have a mask regardless it just shows you care about people coming into your store, done of us do have health concerns and trying to make due with what's going on.
Update*
Service has gotten better and Iβve updated my rating, thank you for doing a great job!
Amazing food and really nice staff
Love the vibe of this place. We happened upon it on a walk from our nearby hotel and we're pleasantly surprised. Delicious Asian fusion style food with some complimentary cocktails had us fed well for a good price. A couple of the dishes were a tad on the salty side, but overall a great experience and we will return when in the area.

Fun place, waitress was nice.
An oasis of flavor in a culinary desert..
Hands down the best Thai food weβve ever had.
Awesome service and great food
Loved going there
The food was delicious! I especially liked the noodles and flavors. We will be returning!
I just really appreciate this restaurant the time and effort for this menu and the customer service is fantastic. A true gem in the Tri-Cities area that is Dan Couch approved.
My BF and I came here tonight because everyone was raving about how great it is. Great drinks, however high prices and definitely not worth what you get. If you are the type that will pay for the βvibeβ then it will be worth it to you. The wait time was terrible. 5 tables they were waiting on. 2 in our party, 2 in another next to us. 1 solo and 2 parties of 4. One which left about 10 min after we sat down. We got our 1st drinks fast but waited about 20 min for the waitress each time to check in at our table. The food was ok and definitely not worth the $19 a bowl that we paid. Our tab was over $100 with tip for 2 people. We ordered the Kim Chi Fried Rice and Pad Thai. And both had 2 drinks a piece. Will probably not be back. We didnβt even go on a night when there was an event. I canβt even imagine what the service is like then.
Its really difficult to be a delivery person when come in here in and they inform you that there's a pickup time. So we wait out to the pickup time and they're still 22 minutes out. Don't tell me they're working on something and it never gets done on time if you order food from here to go from a delivery service don't expected to come when you're wanting it. Plus the bartender that's not the normal girl here was sooooo rude.
Best cocktails in town
Small place so it's sometimes slow when things get busy, but great flavors and very attentive service
My roommate and I came here a week or two ago and it was not worth it. Paid around $83 for the two of us and the food was below average, and the service was awful for it not even being busy! The serverβs attitude was awful as well. Not worth going back again.
Killer food, great service and awesome drinks. It's so awesome to support local businesses.
Soi 705 is just phenomenal. Really!
The food is outstanding, it's approachable and flavorful and fresh. Staff are sincerely friendly and helpful.
This place has such a cool vibe, and they really put in the effort to create community and host events - which we all need more of in Richland.
Excelente para pasar el rato, beber unos tragos, es acogedor.
Cool place, decent food. Subpar service.
Great people great night great drink
I stopped by to get some of the sweet rice with mango. The staff was super friendly and nice, the place was cozy and inviting, great atmosphere. The food we ordered was good, the only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that I waited for over 15 minutes when there was really not that many people. I would definitely go back.
This is a jewel of a hole in the wall. More adult geared but the food was fantastic and the atmosphere was inviting. Couldn't ask for a better richland local secret.
This was a pleasant surprise on a quick trip to the tricities! The restaurant atmosphere was a bit unexpected but still pleasant and cozy. However, whatβs most notable is that the food was AMAZING!! I canβt WAIT to go back and try the jackfruit fries again. They were like nothing Iβve ever had! Salty and sweet and perfectly seasoned. My friend and I also got noodle dishes with tofu and everything was prepared well with great flavor but not too salty or over seasoned. I was so happy that they had so many plant-based options! You can tell that they take food seriously and are true chefs. I love the heart put into this place. Will definitely be going back to support this local business.
Second time here. The first night was great. The second night, the food was still great, but the service was horrible. Sat for 45 minutes without even being offered another drink. I asked about our food. Watched our waitress walk into the back, and look at our noodle bowls. Came back and told me they were dressing them. The bowls magical disappeared. I asked when our food came out if she just microwaved bowls that had been sitting there. She said no. It's weird how warm the side of the bowl were for not being in the microwave.
Excellent flavors! We had lemongrass chicken lettuce wraps, Phase Thai with prawns (so good), and a fried rice dish that was a touch spicey and super delicious! We also had potsickers....they were wonderful.
The craft drinks were good, as well. My favorite is the Lychee Mule!! A must try !
Had the chicken pad Thai, fried rice, and cheese puffs. The cheese puffs were very yummy and came with a good sweet sauce. Fried rice was okay. Chicken pad Thai was fresh and hot. It was my first time having pad Thai so canβt really compare it to anything else. The mochi were okay. I liked the flavor of the yellow and the texture of the pink. I went in because I want the K dog, but they didnβt have it so tried a few different things. Overall I would go again and try some other things. They had a good selection of different dishes. Server was very nice and quick.
They took the street-food aesthetic a little too seriously with a fly-infested kitchen and dining area. We waited an hour for underwhelming food. Good thai tea, but not much else is worth going for.
Really enjoyed lunch here. Nice selection of cocktails, wine and sake. Highly recommend the Moscow mule! Everything we ordered was cooked great, full of flavor. The ambiance and overall atmosphere is pretty dark, like a hole in the wall, but plenty of people,so it was more lively than I thought it would be. Definitely will return, they have great happy hour deals, looks like a good spot for a small group meeting.
A Delightful Experience at Soi705: A Brief Review
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Soi705, a local Thai restaurant, and I wanted to share my thoughts on the experience.
One dish that stood out to me was the "Drunken Yakisoba." Despite my usual pickiness when it comes to yakisoba, I was pleasantly surprised by how well-cooked and balanced it was. Unlike other places where the noodles are often overcooked or too sweet, Soi705 got it just right, and I thoroughly enjoyed every bite.
The cocktail I tried, the "House of the Dragon," was a nice complement to the meal. It had a fruity flavor without being overly sweet, which I appreciated. It added a refreshing touch to the overall dining experience.
I also want to mention the customer service at Soi705. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure that everyone had a comfortable dining experience. Their hospitality added a positive note to the evening.
In conclusion, Soi705 is a local Thai restaurant worth trying. The "Drunken Yakisoba" is a standout dish that defied my expectations, and the "House of the Dragon" cocktail is a flavorful option for those looking for something refreshing. With good food and welcoming service, it's definitely a place I would recommend to fellow food enthusiasts.
Being a native of Richland,Wa and having moved to Portland, Oregon and now running for Mayor of Portland, Oregon this atmosphere and the food would give many restaurants a run for their money hands down! Pan-Asian ideology as well sets the tone to decolonize influences that suppress many Asian communities in America.
My wife and I both being Asiatics and Moorish American Moslems, we enjoyed it all!
We need more places like this in the Tri-Cities.
If you want a restaurant that doubles as a great place to hang out with friends, or just a chill cocktail lounge for spending a few relaxing moments then check this place out.
In a rare move this restaurant accomplishes two things at once, and performs each equally well.
When you arrive you'll notice a great atmosphere, fun music, and the variety of seating which accommodates everything from lounging with drinks to full meals at a table.
If you're here from more traditional reasons the full menu offers a variety from safe to adventurous with all choices equally delicious.
Your drink options range from outrageous to classic and you're sure to find something agreeable to your palate. (The Devil's Nightcap is truly beautiful for that spicy/ smoky satisfaction.)
The amazing staff are passionate and ready to help you enjoy your evening; as a bonus ask Google to tell you the music playing and you can add a few tracks to your rotation.o
Initial impression: First good Thai food I've had in the Tri-Cities. Well executed fusion, across the board. The menu reads like an addictive pulp novel, full of all the familiar twists and turns of Thai cuisine, but then it surprises you with unique accents and variations that beg to be sampled. I have, to this point, sampled but half of the menu, but I have zero complaints so far. I also want to shout out the movie posters on the wall inside- love it! I'll be back!
ADDENDUM:
I went back two more times- the food didn't even look the same and the quality didn't hold up. Sorry if I misled anyone, but my time here in Tri-C has numbed my senses. I'm dropping my review from 5 to 3, and I probably won't be going back.
I went for my first time and Iβm not that adventurous with my dining so I was nervous to order but it was so amazing. I tried the Pad Thai and a few appetizers it was delicious with so much fresh flavor! The drinks are what I went for originally because I heard they were really good and they were! I got a lychee + mint cocktail and itβs the best drink Iβve had out in awhile. Fun atmosphere, different, and quality food. Canβt wait to come back!
This place is amazing. It has a very cool atmosphere, but the food is what makes this place stand out. It has a eclectic and welcome mix of Asian food. We had a few things as it all looked good. The samosas were tasty, vegetarian, and had a great chutney sauce to dip. The real stand out, and what I will come back as much as I'm able for, was the dragon bowl. The pork and duck were great, but the broth, oh the broth, was a flavor I want in my mouth forever. It was some of the best tasting anything I've ever had. This place seems too good to exist here.
The food is delicious and the cocktails are fun! Service can be slow but totally worth it
My favorite Thai food restaurant! The food takes a bit to prepare but it is worth it.
Really good Asian fusion, not crowded.
Great food, great staff, great drinks. The bartender is amazing too of course. I love coming in here for drinks on a parkway walk about.
Food was excellent. Service was great. Plenty of gluten free choices.
The best food in town, period.
Plus the bartender is an absolute sweetheart and brews delicious intoxicants.
Absolutely love the charm, variety, and experience every time we eat here! We are always treated like family. The food and drinks are always amazing. The staff is awesome! Live music from time to time is the icing on the cake.
I loved the vibe and feel of the place. The bartender was very friendly and easy to talk to. I really enjoyed their drink menu.
The food was nothing special. The Boa appetizer was very good, but our main dishes where bland and not that amazing. I'd suggest bypassing the ramen.
I will 100% be visiting again. I do really like this place, I just hope the next entrΓ©es we get are better.
We came here for my birthday and there was something just off about the two women working that day. Our waitress kept switching from a British accent to a Simi-southern accent which was different and not really the reason for the bad review. she just kept coming back every other minute it seems to try and get our order when we kept asking for a while to look the menu over. After the 7-8th time in a 10 minute period of being asked if we were ready to order each time in a different accent we decided to just go elsewhere. both our waitress and the woman behind the bar proceeded to laugh as we were exiting and the bartender said "I can't believe you actually did it!" While they both laughed.
Pranks are funny but not when it causes negative backlash at your place of work.
Love this place. I get peanut sauce and sticky rice often here. Itβs amazing. Simple and delicious. Plus the girls that work the counter and tables are super nice. A+++.
Super good, so good. I did not take pix
Amazing drinks and food. They have duck on the menu which is a plus!
Great food family friendly yet intimate setting full bar plus mock tails!
Jo was an amazing bartender, had some of the freshest and most delicious drinks Iβve ever experienced!
Came in on a Sunday. Not too many people that did not have food already in front of them. We got our seats. And waited.
And waited. And waited more.
Finally waters. And a waitress. We ordered and our food came out pretty fast.
Very small portions on the appetizers. K pop chicken is a few pieces but itβs really really good.
The crying tiger steak whatever is not worth it at that price.
Very tiny amount of steak and what we got was a thinly sliced stringy cut of meat with one end having a 1/4β of fat on it.
The French fries were good.
I should of ordered the soup. The couple next to use had some delicious looking soup dish. I would try it again. But not get the apps I got before.
Clean. The place is clean. And they are trying hard. So. Thatβs a plus.
Absolutely love this place. The menu changes seasonally and they have so many options you can always find something you like. Their starters are all exceptional! And the drink menu is fun, but a little expensive. We really like the coconut fat-washed lychee martini.
Soi 705 is a great date night spot. The service can take a little long at times but being a small restaurant itβs to be expected and we donβt mind because, again, the starters are so so good.
Soi has the best drinks in town! The food is fantastic! If you ask me the English gal behind the bar is a mixologist, not a bar tender. Yes, that does mean the drinks take longer to make as they are not thrown together. All of the food I have tried has been incredible. The energy when you walk in is great! Highly recommend!
Yummy! Iβve traveled and eaten all over the world, including spending lots of time in Thailand. Iβm so happy happy to have delicious Asian cuisine in the tri cities.
Awesome spot!! Jo makes the best cocktails. The Monkey Fries are killer and the bar is a lot of fun to post up at!
Stopped in for a quick bite. We had the Korean chicken bites and the duck egg roll. Didnβt taste much duck and didnβt seem like big enough portions for the price. Flavors were alright but a couple drinks and a couple appetizers was a bit spendy for what we got. Iβd like to try entrees later on.
My five year old loved the Korean hotdogs, served with ketchup instead of hot sauce thanks to the extra attention of a kind cook. They also gave her a complimentary Black Forest cake, which, from the tiny bit my daughter shared, was delicious. We appreciated the warm welcome, and our own food was delicious as well
One of the best small restaurants in town. Love the food and vibe. Great for a date night if you enjoy Thai food.
The cocktails here are damn delicious
The fresh spring rolls and drunken beef were the highlights of our visit. Will be back for sure
Nice little spot with a funky vibe. Food is a refreshing change from the usual chains that plague this area. The restaurant was very busy, however in the party of 4 all of our food came out at different times, and the service was quite slow. Maybe we caught them on a rough night, but will give them the benefit of the doubt, and will try them again.
There are so many different reasons I love going to Soi 705! The atmosphere is fun, trendy and cozy. The food is always good, my favorites are the Honey I Spared the Ribs and Crying Tiger. Every mixed drink Iβve tried I loved. The bartender made me custom drinks based on the flavors I like. Loved my custom mojito and Moscow mule!! And the workers there are some of the kindest people Iβve ever met, you can really tell this is a family owned business. If you havenβt been here yet, youβre missing out.
Fantastic little place with creatively amazing food. We received awesome service. This place is well put together, stylish and has a great vibe. However the venue is small and I'm sure it fills up quickly during peak hours. I can't wait to go back. It's incredibly nice to see someone do something special with a restaurant in the tri-cities.
My husband and I love Soi 705! It is easily our favorite restaurant in the Tri-Cities. We come here as often as we can and love the rotating menu, as it allows us to try new dishes we never would try otherwise. If you have large parties of more than 4, make a reservation! And if you are coming on a weekend, I suggest getting a reservation because it can get crowded. However, you don't necessarily need one if you don't mind sitting at the bar.
If you don't know what to get, here are some of my favorites and must eats:
Apps/Small Plates:
Cucumber salad - super refreshing! a great companion to the meal
Cheese puffs - imagine the best cream cheese crab wonton you have had with a bomb dipping sauce
Malaysia Meatballs- so good. the bbq sauce they are in is amazing.
Crying Tiger - this steak is so yummy. Can be spicy, but its so yummy with the veggies/cucumber on the side.
Korean Hot Dogs - they usually give you multiple different flavors of hot dogs when your order, and they are all soooo good. highly recommend if you have never had one!
Entrees:
Duck Fried Rice - best fried rice I've had in the area
Ramen - sort of a fusion broth. Tastes like their meatballs + so so yummy in the winter.
Curry of the day - can never go wrong!
They also have great mocktails, Thai iced tea and iced matcha.
This place is a small staffed local place, so be patient with them if it is a busy night. All of the staff are so wonderful and kind and we will continue to come back and see what they are cooking up next!
kind gracious server. lovely place. took a long time for everyone to get their food. only 2 people working . one in the kitchen and the lovely server. they are not ready for more than 2 ppl at a time. i ordered potstickers and house ramen. i could have made it at home. nothing special about any of it. literally freezer potstickers.... and noodles you buy in dry form for .70 a pack. added a few low quality ingredients in a small bowl and sold for $17. the broth was unexpectedly tamarind sweet. maybe try something else on the menu if you go. fresh ramen noodles would have made a big difference.
Great experience overall!
This is my new favorite restaurant! Love the cozy atmosphere! Not only is the food amazing but the the drinks are beyond unique and good! Everything is done right! I canβt wait to go back and try the many different option for food and drink!
Amazing food! What an artist of a chef, who uses local produce! It was fresh and had lots of veggies! I always love the flair of her food! I got the brown rice sautΓ©ed and my friend got the Vietnamese salad! The chocolate cake was to die for too! Will be back!
Was really excited to tri this place given that we came up from Granger ~ 1 hr drive. We get there and hosted said 30min wait due to there being reservations. There were 3 empty tables and I suggested if our party could sit in the corner one, she had to call her manager to confirm. We get the table. Very nice drink menu definitely something different but prices were giving city prices. Haven't seen a $15 cocktail in tricities before. Alright so we order, very nice waiter. Place was not too busy or packed. After a bit of wait they bring half our food out. Half our party began eating while the other half waited for there food to arrive. 45 minutes later the rest of the food didn't come out yet. Turns out the waiter never put the order in.. okay. Yikes. We ended up being there for over 2 hours waiting for dinner. Honestly not going to completely bash on this place. It's new and seems to need some reorganization of staff and management I get it. But cmon how do u forget to put in half an order, still only bring our food for half the people , and not question if anyone else is missing something ? This place is Definitely not worth the wait or time. Food was mid a solid 4/10. I am no food critic but it definitely lacked flavor. Interior was interesting definitely a hole in the wall. It's a cute place if your eating solo but def wouldn't come in a group of 4 or more.
I was blown away by the amazing food. The flavors were much more than I expected! We will definitely visit again.
ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS- and amazing drinks. The only slight complaint would be they could work on the service- they didnβt check on tables enough we had to flag them down everytime we needed anything. But honestly an absolutely amazing and delicious restaurant. 4.8/5
Incredible!!!
My daughter and I loved this place food and service was amazing!!!
Amazing restaurant. Not too busy but definitely not dead either. The food was fantastic and the service was awesome. Highly recommend. They also have vegetarian options.
I have eaten here four times with mixed results. The first experience had good Yakisoba, good pudthai and coconut shrimp. My margarita was well made not weak ond not overdone, and the bartender asked if I wanted salt. Service was good and they paid attention to my elderly mother. The second and third time were pretty much the same, pleasant waite staff and good hot food. The most recent visit was a disaster. While everyone has an off day, this time everyone had one. When I asked the bar tender for a paloma, all I got was " we don't have grapefruit" and a blank stare with a pinch of attitude. I asked for a mezcal margarita and the bartender walked away without a word. She came back with the drink and set it on the table almost with her back to the table. Not impressed with a margarita with iodized table salt on the rim served with attitude. The pot stickers were good with a nice garnish and would have been great if they were hot, not lukewarm, same with the coconut shrimp. We also ordered the Crying Tiger, (see photos) The only thing to cry about there was the amount og gristle and fat served. Considering there were only two tables occupied and six customers, they could have had a little time to make it an exceptional experience.
Only One bad experience out of four, but a complete fail in my book.
I love them
I don't remember what I got, but it was so good. The sangria was the best I've ever had, and I've had some sangria in my day! I was surprised how few people were in there. Hopefully we can get the word out on how awesome this place is!
Off the hook great place for authentic Thai food
We loved the food!! Beautifully plated and the flavors were exceptional. We order different entrees and shared and enjoyed them all . We canβt wait to bring more friends.
Fantastic food. Jacqueβs menus is fresh and tasty. Jo makes the best cocktails in town.
Most thought out craft cocktails in tri cities! Favorite place to drink and eat!
The ambiance was perfect. The drinks are tasty. The food is delicious and the staff is friendly and helpful! I look forward to returning and hopefully catching some disco music!
Loved the vibe and the staff. Food was great and I am dying to go back and try their bar. Let's keep supporting small business who are bringing something new to the Tricities!
Place does not follow the posted hours of operation. Got there 8:45pm and they say closes at 9pm. Two ladies inside told me I could not order something to go because they are closed.
This was our second and last visit. The restaurant has really gone down hill since they opened. The portions have been cut way down and the food never arrives together. Service was terrible and the price was very high for what we ordered. Atmosphere was very loud with discotheque music. Major disappointment!
Atmosphere is great if you want a quiet private place for date night or a lunch. They did good on the decor. Food was pretty good, presented in a high class way, but small portions. I personally care less about presentation, more about feeling full when I leave a restaurant. We tried the pad Thai and pineapple fried rice.
One of the best places I keep frequenting for great cocktails and great food. I have yet to eat at a place that has this consistently great food and drink.
Came here for a business lunch. The waitress was unfriendly from the beginning. We ordered at 12:40pm got our food at 1:40pm. In their defense it does state on the menu that they are very short staffed so it may take longer to get your food. The first dish they brought to us was something none of us had ordered, they also messed up on the customers order that was sitting next to us. When we did get our food, none of us liked what we had ordered(pad Thai, papaya salad, jackfruit fries, Singapore bowl) although it was visually appealing it lacked flavor. We did not enjoy the overall experience and probably won't be back.
Iβve been here a couple of times and it was usually a nice experience. My last visit was absolutely terrible and Iβm never going back. It took 1.5 hours for our food to come out even though there was only one other table in the restaurant. I ordered the duck fried rice and was looking forward to the Chinese sausages but they completely left it out even though itβs listed as an ingredient. My husband and I were both starving after one appetizer and two entrees. The lady working behind the counter was completely unapologetic and pretty rude to us even though they were the ones being slow? The worst part of it all was that it ended up costing $71 and we didnβt even order drinks. Donβt waste your money.
Customer service is not lost!!! Please read⦠I have celiac and it is new news for me and I have to learn how to eat with a no gluten diet. That being said the girl went above and beyond to help me out on what to order and took the time to write down what I can eat off their menu which I can say no one this far has done anything close to it. The food was delicious yes our wait time was long but the customer service was above par in caring. Something like that is hard to experience anymore. The chicken satay was my favorite! Thank you again for your above and beyond customer service.
Amazing drinks a very friendly staff. Love the ambiance a music. Very chill and great entrees. The Electric Tai-Grr was good ππΌ
I have waited months to try this place and was really looking forward to it! I went here on a date and ordered 4 appetizers. The food was palatable but unimpressive for the price/small portion size.
We payed $50 for 4 appetizers and waited quite a long time with only one other guest in the dining room. It was too warm in the restaurant and flies kept landing on me. We were served room temperature water that tasted not very good. The service was poor.
I do not enjoy writing negative reviews-- tried to find something I liked.
All together it was genuinely bad restaurant experience, a waste of time and money. We left feeling bummed out and kind of hungry
Food immaculate!!
The food is good, if you're willing to wait a long time to get it (two hours for two people). This is the sentiment shared in many other reviews, and I experienced it myself tonight. The unfortunate part is that it's not because they were busy (there were only two other tables there), just from lacking any efficiency or urgency. Yes, the food tasted good but lackluster service is their downfall.
My wife ordered a fruity drink, very weak on the alchohol. I ordered an iced matcha tea, and again they chose to skimp with culinary grade matcha (which anyone who knows matcha can easily tell).
Our order consisted of an appetizer (samosas), and two entrees (pineapple fried rice, and wok fried veggies with tofu). A 30 minute wait after ordering, the samosas were delivered along with one entree. The other entree came out 10 minutes later. The food was quite tasty, it was cooked well and had good flavor. Fried bananas dessert was very good.
The owner was there and she was quite nice, speaking to us a few times as she helped out in the dining area. There was only one girl serving, which might not have been an issue for someone experienced but it seemed like it was her first day waiting tables.
My overall impression is that ordering food to-go or perhaps delivery through a service is the way to go if you want to eat here - they still have some business efficiencies to figure out when it comes to operating dine-in. The food alone didn't provide enough value to justify a $100 check.
Great
The good here is soooooo good. Jackie is absolutely amazing and so are all the staff, plating is beautiful and the kitchens ability to prepare all Asian dishes goes well beyond thier in house menu. If you've had it they can probably make it for you!!
No taste.
Amazing Thai Food and craft Cocktails live entertainment on Thurs and Sun . Fusion street food during richland Public Market Hours in Summer. Amazing staff and chefs!
We spent our honeymoon in Thailand and this brought us back to the streets of Bangkok. Great food. The duck was amazing but the baozi Bunz were not freshly made in house, and while good, not worth what they were charging for prepackaged frozen bao. It was also quite expensive (we didn't even order alcohol and it was $80 for two of us).
Good Asian food, and they have a good selection behind the bar.
Fantastic food! Finally found a better curry then my hometown go-to lol. Highly recommend!
The guy in the kitchen who served us was great. The woman (manager?) was terrible. She gave us the wrong menus, didnβt tell me that what I had ordered was not available until we had been there for an hour and my friend had finished eating. She also just sat there at the computer as the guy who was the cook had to take orders, refill drinks, pretty much do everything. Even as it got busier she refused to help, as if it were beneath her. The only reason we left a tip is because the poor guy had to do the job of 3.
Super delicious and authentic southeast Asian cuisine! Had the chicken satay skewers, Thai noodle soup, DIY Peking duck wraps (very very good) and the jackfruit fries. The atmosphere was also fantastic, and I think this would make a chic place for dinner. They had a variety of interesting cocktails, but since we came for lunch we opted for the Thai tea instead. All the flavors were on point, nothing was watered down or cut corners on. Would definitely recommend!
We ended up staying for a few hours because we really enjoyed the vibe. The appetizers were good, but the main dishes were even better.
One of the best restaurants in tricities! Absolutely fantastic food , tasty looking cocktails, good beer selection. I will be a regular for sure!
Get the pineapple cashew chicken!!!
Wandered in after an appointment in the Parkway and was happy to spend a dinner date here. I got a vegetarian dish and had lots of options, and had a great cocktail recommended by the bartender. Looking forward to another visit to try more of the drinks and the food.
The food and drinks are worth the wait.
Horrible place, lazy staff and dirty glasses. We walked out. Never go to this place
This place is great good food and good drinks in a enjoyable environment i really recommend the malaysia meatballs they are the best and the different mix of music makes it even cooler.
Great restaurant, fast service and incredibly tasty food and cocktails!
Horrible first experience. I walked in to try this place for the first time and wasn't even greeted. Sign said to seat yourself but the few tables opened were all dirty. I waited for 5 minutes in the front and no one came to greet me. I went to the counter where the worker proceeded to say to give her a few minutes while she can get a table clean. I proceeded to a loungue area to wait for another 15 minutes with still no table or service. I walked out and will not come back or recommend this establishment. I don't care how good the food may be but the customer service is garbage.
First time in tonight. I absolutely loved everything about it! The food was exquisite! The service was top notch. This is without a doubt one of the best restaurants in the Tri-Cities! I highly recommend you check it out!
Also, the movie posters and Decour are awesome!
This place had the most amazing atmosphere, service, and food. The sticky sweet rice and mango is nothing short of heavenly! Highly recommend! The Ramen, the potstickers, the satay skewers weβre all just Fantastic!!!
The service was personal, friendly, intelligent, and helpful.
Cannot recommend enough! We will be going back!
Under cooked rice, and why would you do bone in teriyaki chicken? Found a shard of class on my plate too.
literally so effing good and authentic, i ordered multiple things and NOTHING was bad i was creaming as i was eating their food. i recommend the spicy avocado curry and the pad thai π«π«
Wonderful fresh thai food with a twist. Donβt miss out on this wonderful place.
This is absolutely one of the best restaurants in the Tri. They have a very unique, expansive, and thoughtful menu and it's all very very fresh. Cocktails are very clever and well crafted. The prices are extremely reasonable considering the quality and variety. The freshness means that it won't take 10 minutes to get your entree, so get an appetizer and plan to spend some time. Decor is very fun and unique so take the time to look around.
That best food with fresh delicious ingredients,never tested like a frozen vegetable all that time is fresh π π
Great food with live music. Service was very nice too
Wow, that was tasty! The meals have great texture and numerous little surprises. I really appreciate the variety and number of ingredients used. The Drunken Beef (chef's kiss), yum!
Delicious drinks, wonderful staff, and such fresh food!
Great food. Service was good. Love the garden rolls.
Excellent tasty food. Superb service. I will be back.
