We were extremely disappointed with every dish that was served to our table. As a party of 9, we experienced a half an hour wait between when the first and last mains were finally served. The food was bland and very average. Pad See Ew was flavorless, chicken & cashew was also very underwhelming. The pork belly was lackluster, and should be served salty and tender. Even the spring rolls were oily and improperly drained leaving a residue in our mouths. It is a real shame that the food and service has deteriorated so steeply in the last few months as our last experience was great. I would wait until the next menu change and hope for the best.

Everywhere I turned, there were delicate and subtle butterflies to discover, along with other intricate details. I have a love for Steampunk, so this was right up my alley. The service was outstanding, as the staff kept things running smoothly and were incredibly polite, smiling, and friendly. Even with children in our party, they had no problem accommodating us. The Italian food was deliciously prepared and cooked to perfection. Thank you, Cloudland, for providing such a wonderful atmosphere, excellent service, and flavorful food.

Her service was the highlight of our evening. It was great to see all the other staff looking like they were enjoying their work as well at such a classy venue. We will definitely be returning soon.
