Full evidence log

Every line, as the restaurant states it.

Service
Current official home and reservations pages state dinner Wednesday through Sunday with two seatings; price and reservation-platform details conflict across official pages.
Menu
Official July-August Thai Festivals tasting menu is published. The site states no substitutions, lists common allergens, and requires advance notice for restrictions that may not be accommodated.
Occasion fit
Destination dinner; serious tasting-menu experience; anniversary; adventurous date; food-focused visit to Portland.
Hours
Dinner is offered Wednesday through Sunday in two coordinated seatings each evening. Published times are 5 PM and 7:45 PM Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday, and 5:30 PM and 8:15 PM Friday and Saturday.
Reservations
Reservations are released one month at a time at noon on the 15th for the following month. Reservations require confirmation at least two days before the meal, and late cancellations or party-size reductions can be charged the full menu price.
Price
The current official reservations and FAQ pages publish a tasting-menu price of $145 per person, with optional wine and nonalcoholic pairings and a 20% automatic gratuity. Older first-party pages still contain conflicting lower prices and booking-platform language.
Dietary
At least two days notice is required for restrictions. The current FAQ states that vegan, vegetarian, fish-free, coconut-free, capsaicin-free, and allium-free requests cannot be accommodated. The menu states that many dishes contain seafood, fermented fish, nuts, cilantro, and other ingredients even when not listed.
Beverage
Curated wine pairing and nonalcoholic pairing are published, along with a separate wine list and corkage policy.
Groups & private
Intimate 24-seat tasting room best suited to small, fixed-size parties. Party-size changes can invalidate a reservation because of the tightly planned seating model.
Atmosphere
Intimate, highly choreographed Thai tasting-menu experience inspired by the convivial feeling of a Thai home kitchen and built around Pacific Northwest ingredients.
Accessibility
Detailed physical-access route and restroom information were not stated in the reviewed first-party pages.
Parking & transit
The restaurant warns that neighborhood parking can be limited and recommends allowing an additional 10 to 15 minutes. Ride-share users should verify the current northwest Portland address.
Dress
No formal dress code was stated on the reviewed first-party pages.
Typical meal length
Plan for a fixed-seating multi-course experience rather than a flexible drop-in meal.
Practical notes
Confirm the current price, booking platform, dietary feasibility, party size, and cancellation terms before booking. The official site still contains conflicting historical details on some pages.
