Great ambience, superb service.. My wife had a week-long convention at work and was put up at Cypress Hotel in Cupertino. I went along and decided to eat out this afternoon and was drawn to this restaurant by the facade. I was even more impressed once inside, the decor is stunningly tropical. The way they had trunk boxes stacked on decks above cubicles reminded me so much of sojourns back in Africa. The service was warm with lots of sincere smiles, my shrimp-crab-fish claypot dish was spicy and filling. And the Ivory Coast Margarita was certainly elephant-sized enough to quench my thirst. I hope they find a way to incorporate live entertainment to complement their pizzaz.
