"It was a such good experience at no work allowed on Thursday night. The live music was so good and the drinks as well! You have to spend minimum $25 per person or 2 drinks. Our food was okay range. Highly recommended 👍🏻"

"The purple potato tempura and garlic pasta were the standouts. I love the ume yuzu cocktail - get it if you like your drink sweet like candy. The shrimp pad Thai and grilled pork jowl were also good. The shishito peppers could have used some more salt but I liked the addition of ground rice for something a little different. Good selection of Thai beers and cold sake (no hot sake options). No dessert on Sunday. The live jazz band was great. We were seated immediately when we arrived around 6:15. The live jazz band started at 7:30 pm so seats were mostly taken by 7. They also had reserved tables."

"The food was delicious. It’s exactly what I look for when I go out to eat: something with a creative twist we couldn’t make at home, good portions, a variety of ingredients, and beautiful presentation. The flavors were perfect—not overwhelming, but interesting and delicious, with the Thai chile peeking through for a little kick. I shared two dishes with a friend. First the Isan Saba Somen. The noodles were refreshing and yummy. I’m a big mackerel fan, but the texture of this cured mackerel wasn’t my favorite, even though the flavor was good. This is a personal preference, however, as my friend was a big fan (think more canned fish vibe) The Jarn Isaac dish, with grilled lemongrass chicken, papaya salad, and sticky rice, was perfection. No notes. To top it off, we were right next to some banging jazz, and you could tell the players were just so happy and deep in the music. All the staff I interacted with were stressed and wanted to make sure we spent money and that they could flip the table, which I get in a high pressure environment, but also felt a little antithetical to the laid back jazz bar vibe they were going for. It’s a little pricey as a student. But this place would be a great date spot, but maybe a couple dates down the line, as it might be hard to speak with the music."

"This was my first jazz club in New York and it did not disappoint! The food is Thai and Japanese inspired, which really hit the pallet. Very chill vibes with great music and friendly atmosphere. Definitely a hidden gem!"

"The food was delicious. Really fine cooking. Had the wow- factor. And for the price unbelievable. Didn’t expect it. The jazz music was amazing. The drinks are a little expensive. Would always come back. Very sensational experience during our vacation."
