Summary: This Asian fusion restaurant combines Thai, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese cuisines and flavors with contemporary classics and preparations. There is a modern, colorful atmosphere with friendly staff and interesting cocktails during happy hour. There is a small bar in the front where you can sit for drinks and the dining area is fairly large and elegant. Closest Metro is Eastern Market.
It looks like there is an upstairs seating area, however we’ve never seen the entrance and didn’t notice anyone else escorted up that way. The kitchen area is semi-open in the middle where you can watch the chefs create your dishes. My entrée portion was a generous portion and size, cooked perfectly. I have tried the Pineapple Upside Down cocktail – which is like a Mojito made with pineapple juice and Thai basil instead of mint. I have been here twice so far and have enjoyed my meal tremendously each time.
