Food was excellent. I haven't given max points due to there being no vegetarian options on the menu plus a lack of environmental awareness (e.g. disposable plastic tablecloths).

Simplemente comentarle que tenemos opciones vegetarianas, pad thai vegetariano, currys vegetarianos, baos vegetarianos, ensaladas con tofus, etc. Preguntenos por favor. Y respecto a los manteles hemos optado por unos manteles desechables por el covid de polipropileno. Es una sustancia 100 % reciclable y su Código de Identificación Plástico es el número 5. Los envases y productos fabricados con polipropileno deben depositarse en el contenedor amarillo para su posterior reciclado tal y como hacemos a diario. Gracias por pensar en el medio ambiente. Me imagino que es usted un ciudadano ejemplar.

Interesting combinations of flavors and textures. Different choices between seafood, lamb, pork and vegetables. Portions big enough to share. Will come back.

I was so glad to see the old crew back. As always they were professional and caring. The restaurant observed and respected protocols that made me feel safe amidst the ongoing pandemic. I truly enjoyed my food while eating at the restaurant.

Best for us were the thai green curry, black bao and creme brulee. We took the Menu Degustacion, which would be better for a lunch rather than a dinner, it has 5 starters, main course and dessert - lots of food! Our waiter gave us really good advice and we loved the food. Overall, a little gem in Prosperidad!

The good was treated with respect the tuna was the best I've had and my husbands crab was memorable. A little out of the way but was well worth the taxi ride .
