This gorgeous, well-decorated restaurant features a lot of hand-carved artwork and other authentic items creating an atmosphere that is inviting, and unexpected. The restaurant has a sushi bar near the entrance. Soft, warm woods adorn the walls leading to the main dining rooms off to the side, while a fountain gently creates a soft background trickling sound. To the right, a room is filled with booths and to the left another room is filled with tables. A large patchwork art piece of an elephant dominates two different walls in two separate rooms. In the back, a Tatami room is privately sectioned off but still part of the restaurant. Traditionally dressed waitresses will take your order. A section of vegetarian food is available. Enjoy a bowl of red bean or green tea ice cream; it's yummy. The restaurant was voted Top 100 Thai Restaurants in the United States.
