    Liked the special BBQ Shrimp starter a lot. Gulf fish needed more flavor. The BBQ shrimp sauce on the fish would be a great dish. Sorry they are closing.

    This has been an outstanding family restaurant for many year. I started eating at their restaurants in the early 80s. Outstanding Thai food. The best Thai restaurant by far in the New Orleans area.

    We waited so long to visit, we were not let down! We are fellow church members with the Galle's. When we heard they were closing at the end of year, we had to go. We decided to make it a night out with friends. All of us we blown away at all aspects of the restaurant. I'm so sorry to see them close. We'll look forward to any other endeavor Diana and Jay embark on.
