"I have been going to Monsoon for 10 years. This place has not changed at all in the last 10 years. Great Asian food and some of the best sushi I've ever had. They have a wide variety of signature cocktails. I would recommend Monsoon for either a group dinner with friends or a romantic dinner with your special loved one. :)"

"Wonderful ambiance that makes you feel as if you are in another country. The food is good, too. But it's hard to find your waiter, even when you want to pay your bill."

"Had a business lunch and Monsoon Cafe was perfect. The service was attentive but not overbearing and the food was reasonable and great. The hostess was very friendly and accommodating when I asked for a quiet booth."

"Great atmosphere, I'll give them that, but the food was just mediocre at best. I had the Monsoon Fried Rice and my friend had the Pad Thai. We've also ordered the Tuna Crab Eggroll and the Potstickers for appetizer. The two main dishes were greasy greasy greasy! The fried rice was bland, even with their "XO Sauce" (which is laughable at best, it was not spicy at all). The Pad Thai tasted nothing like real Pad Thai. It was, again, bland. The eggroll was just a sad excuse of an eggroll. It's one eggroll cut into four pieces and it's $4. I didn't see any tuna in the eggroll either and the "crab" is just imitation crab meat. Only bright side was the potstickers."

"Decent place. Staff was attentive and helpful. Tried the vegetable roll as an appetizer. Dining guest had the shrimp bowl - I had the pad thai with chicken. Nothing overwhelmingly spectacular, but good food nonetheless. Not too noisy - but did arrive before many would on a Saturday evening, and noticed the place starting to fill up as I left. Recommended attire is business casual, but given that this place is located in a popular tourist area, I noticed that almost anything went."

"The day my group of five went, Monsoon was quite understaffed and service was really slow. It took our food and drinks so long to arrive that one person had to leave before his food arrived because we had been there over an hour! Our drinks didn't arrive until after our appetizers. The weird thing is that the restaurant was not even crowded! It was actually quite empty for 1:00pm."
