· Turtle Bay
Creative Thai-Isan with Japanese izakaya touches, standout short rib curries and salmon clay pot, lively service and occasional jazz; portions run small and prices mid-high for the area.
Our take
Yezo Thai Isankaya delivers solid neighborhood dining with exceptional signature dishes like short rib massaman and salmon clay pot and warm, attentive service that create a welcoming experience. However, occasional consistency lapses, modest portions relative to pricing, and moderate authenticity concerns prevent a higher grade. The thoughtful decor and live jazz add character but don't elevate it to destination status for most diners.
One caveat: Portions can be on the small side for the price
