THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Erawan

THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Erawan Restaurant Review:

If you love to be fussed over by a waitstaff that treats you like royalty...if you love to look at presentations so artsy you are not sure whether to eat them or take a picture of them...if you want a total and complete Thai experience, one in which flavors are in perfect balance, where enjoyment turns into exuberance and exuberance turns into total satisfaction, then Erawan is for you. Hand carved wall panels, luxurious carpeting and expensive wall treatments set the stage for this upscale Thai beauty. On the left side of the dining room is a raised Thai-style temple-canopy with cushion seating and sunken tables. Tables are large and well-spaced, which adds to the luxury and comfort. A degustation menu is available. Service is as nice as can be and eager to explain the composition of various dishes as they are served. A wine steward is on hand to guide you through the expansive wine list. The direction here is Thai dining on a level with haute French. Sometimes the kitchen gets more into how a dish looks than how it tastes, but overall the enjoyment level is high. Spending $50 a person or more for dinner is not out of the question, but if you wish to experience what a luxury Thai restaurant is all about, this is the place to go.
