The remodel and extension of the restaurant they did from the prior Thai restaurant that use to occupy this space is very nice.

We had a fabulous experience from beginning to end. The staff was friendly, engaging, and knowledgeable. The staff recommended culinary options tailored to our palate. I would have never tried one of the dishes if it were not for the suggestion. As a foodie, I can not wait to have the “Vietnamese Bahn Xeo (crepes) again. John patiently described the hot pepper options to us and answered additional questions about them. Later we had the coconut cake and ice cream, which were fantastic. The portion was large and perfect for sharing. The food and staff were a-may-zing. I thank them for such a lovely evening.

We loved Indochine last time we visited Wilmington and had to try the newest restaurant in the family. The drinks were tropical and fun. The tom yum soup was some of the best I’ve ever had. All the food was amazing though and would definitely recommend it to anyone.

It’s not just the excellent food… this restaurant (space) is a visual feast for the senses. The rich and fascinating decor transports you to another land and prepares your tastebuds for an adventure. Sitting inside, it’s hard to believe that you are actually in a strip mall.

My boss took the staff out for lunch and chose this place. I love the art work meaning the paintings and statues but the whole place is very scenic with art. The food is to die for as I had shrimp fried rice and some dumplings!! Definitely will be back soon.

The atmosphere and decor is absolutely beautiful! There is so much to look at and it is truly breathtaking. The food was fantastic. We had calamari, dumplings and crab rangoon for appetizers. They were all really delicious. My picky 11 year old daughter ate everything! We had the duck with kumquat sauce and scallops in Vietnamese garlic sauce for entrees. The duck was the clear winner here. We ate up every bite. My daughter had the coconut cake for dessert and it was huge! She loves coconut cake and said it was the best she ever had. We will definitely be back, it was a great dining experience.

Both the Panang curry duck and Massaman chicken were mostly devoid of meat. It consisted mainly of giant chunks of potatoes and carrots. The flavor was very good. Wasn’t worth the 1.5 hour wait. Will try again and hope for better!

I had lunch here with my friend recently and had the pleasure of having Julien as my server. He was attentive without being overbearing and when I requested that my food be as spicy as possible he went above and beyond to make sure it was, even bringing me a selection of hot sauces/chili oils to accompany my food! Overall we had an amazing experience with delicious food and a delightful atmosphere.

Very friendly and professional staff. The Massaman Curry is delicious and my favorite. The Bento Box is a variety of great hors d’oeuvres to try before your meal. For non alcohol beverages, you can’t go wrong with their Thai Iced Tea. And the Hibiscus Tea is very flavorful. Beautiful decor with lots of conversation stimulating art work throughout. We’ll be returning for sure

I would give my experience a B. Our drinks were very tasty and pretty. My Thai Spicy Basil rice was just OK. I got it “Thai Hot”. I’m familiar with the levels of hotness at Thai restaurants and I didn’t feel like mine was very spicy at all. I asked our waitress 2 or 3 times for a spice tray. It was a Saturday night and it was decently busy. I just felt like our service wasn’t that great.. she took away our appetizer plate which had the cucumber salad and peanut sauce when I was still eating the chicken satay. I’m glad we tried this new place but not sure I would drive across town to go back. Service was a little slow too. Beautiful restaurant inside with vibrant colors and pretty decor but a little loud.
