I’ve been here before and it was great, but the experience this time was not enjoyable. The food was not high quality - my beef pad see ew contained no noodles, fatty pieces of what tasted like cheap steak and large full pieces of ginger. I love this place so was extremely disappointed with this- complete rip off as well.

We enjoyed the food and ambiance as we always do. The waitress, Avi, was excellent. She wrote down our order and then repeated it to us to be sure it was correct.

Perfect food as always! My number one place to go in The Bahamas. The only concern is the live music—if it’s present, it could definitely be quieter.”The band played very loud but thank god it is occasional !

Unfortunately it shows that the original chef left. Dishes are overly sweet and overly salty - a balance true East Asian cuisine is famous for. Now you only get executing chefs that simply lack the necessary touch. Only saving grace were the appetizers which are still executed correctly. Not a good start under new ownership.
