An incredible atmosphere with delicious food. The menu was different than other Thai restaurants which pushed us to try different things. I had the steamed fish which was well done and tasted fresh. We came after visiting the intrepid museum which was a lovely way of ending our museum experience

I could not possibly say enough great things about Valla Table, but I will try. When we arrived we were met with a warm smile and promptly brought to our table. We were in the new addition which was awesome. The food was exceptional. We traveled to Thailand and this was a wonderful twist and superb. Service was fantastic - very very attentive. Really an exceptional evening. We will be back!

So glad to find this place. Based on the menu we can already tell its authenticity. We ordered beef curry with coconut noodles and Pad Thai with shrimp. Pad Thai was especially amazing - it’s hard to be surprised by such a loved staple. The atmosphere is very chill as well.

We had a wonderful experience at Valla Table! The staff Sherlyn kindly helped us switch to a larger and more comfortable indoor table, and they were incredibly friendly throughout. They also offered great suggestions on what to order, and the dishes turned out to be just right for our taste. Overall, the atmosphere, service, and food made for a very enjoyable dining experience. Highly recommended!
