Bangkok shrimp was amazing. Abigail was my server and she gave great recommendations. She was so helpful and informative when it came to the menu, as well as unity points and using my players card.

Service was ok. Seems since we had 8 people in our group and there was an automatic service charge they didn’t need to be attentive to us. Had to ask a few time for refills. Then the food ,we got the ribs which were great and large and meaty but I also ordered the Fajita trio. All I received was 3 shrimp 4 sliced pieces of chicken and steak. Definitely not worth the price. The loaded me with plenty of sour cream, tomatoes and lettuce. And the wraps were just warm and crusty like they were over microwaved. My friend got a beer with a souvenir cup to bring home. How they charged was $12 for the beer vs a regular alcoholic drink was $8. Really didn’t need to “souvenir” cup. Overall an ok visit. But is it worth the price no.

We stopped eating here for awhile because the food quality lessened. Decided to give it another chance, and what a difference in the taste and quality of the meals. The ribs were so good again we took a full rack to go! The special smash burger melt was so much better than a hamburger. Even the fries were crisp and hot. The brownie sundae was devine.
