The food was amazing. The pork jowl paired so well with the citrus sauce, and the homemade bread served with the mussels mopped up the liquid like a sponge. The cauliflower was flavorful and well-seasoned. The Cornish Hen red curry and lamb roti were cooked perfectly and very tender (the homemade roti was the perfect vehicle). I talked with the owner, Sung, who is fantastic. Will be returning soon to check out their brunch.

First off, their food is incredible. Unique flavors and absolutely delicious with beautiful plating. Secondly, their service is top notch. Their servers are attentive, kind, and great at their job.

We came in with a party of 9 and they were able to fit us in. We tried 9 dishes off their dinner menu and every single one was fantastic. We couldn’t decide which we liked best. I wish I had taken photos of the small plates we ordered but I forgot.

Their brunch menu is also amazing by their dinner menu is my new favorite! Highly recommend

Kothai is definitely my all time favorite restaurant. I am so addicted that we have been going there every weekend since they started serving brunch.

Their food is unique. They do not take short cuts and each dish is carefully engineered. Yes, engineered, the owner puts in a lot of thoughts and trials before adding a dish onto the menu.

We do go there for dinner, too. They have different menus for brunch and dinner and every dish is great. Service is very attentive and everyone is informative.

What an amazing experience we had at Kothai! From the balanced flavors in the heirloom salad fresh from the local farmers market to the mussels steamed in shellfish broth every dish was fantastic. Worth a visit for the those from the area and a trip for those that are further out !

I have eaten here several times and it is consistent: service is friendly, caring, on time. The menu is creative and the food is delicious and beautifully served. Portions are a good size for either sharing or eating individually. And then desert , what a treat! Drinks are tasty too and they have a variety of wines as well.

Only first time visiting, and I’m EXTREMELY impressed. the steak salad I got was unbelievably good. I was truly shocked at the flavor and all. I saw smthng abt a meatball in their menu, def never getting that. but most of their stuff looks really good, so can’t wait till my next visit!

Just visited again!! Really happy w all the dishes. And the drinks were great! Just wish they uses an actual martini glass for their martini…

First time here and it was very impressive. Easy to use reservation system, good service, and the food was great. My favorites were the kampachi crudo (the sauce was amazing), matcha tiramisu, and almond cake with yuzu ice cream.

Excellent food , service and ambiance! Went with two little kids and the kids devoured the pork jowl dish. Server made great recommendations and went out of his way to make sure we had a great dining experience. Would definitely come back! Drooling thinking about their seasonal tomato burrata toast(?) appetizer.

Not sure if we just had an off night but most our food was solid good, but not great. We came before and had a great brunch, this time we tried dinner, and it’s a seasonal menu. We are all our food because we don’t like to waste and nothing was BAD, but we left kind of ho-hum.

Melon salad with prosciutto: Was solid good, but nothing special. The type of melon was fairly mild, but it all went together pretty well. 4 star

Grilled octopus: The sauce and beans were really good, yummy flavor. The octopus itself was a bit mushy in areas compared to other octopus dishes I’ve had. Not bad, just a little over maybe. 4 star

Whipped ricotta with tomato and focaccia: the tomato was delicious but the ricotta tasted more like mayo and the bread was sopping in oil. I squeezed it and you could see oil running out and dripping. 1 star for bread, 3 star for ricotta, 5 star for tomatoes, overall 3 star.

Pork chop: very well cooked but basically on top of a pile of mayonnaise-like sauce that was way overkill. There was a small relish on the side but the relish had almost no flavor and there was only a small amount. 2 star.

Lamb roti: very very tender and well cooked, sauce and onion base was delicious! Roti was yummy and it had our favorite component of the night which was a nice zesty green sauce (lime-ish).

With half stars I’d bump to 3.5 for our meal, but rounded down because it still just overall felt a bit meh flavor wise.
