"we were happy to visit La jolla with Thai food, in a restaurant that was once one of our favorites: royal thai, now chedi bistro. the restaurant could be attractive, but it is not well kept and looks a bit shady and tedious. from beginning to end, it was a catastrophe. we had a reservation, but when we arrived, they said there was no table, although there were obviously some open. we have not received any attention for the first ten minutes until my man asked the man on the writing for something water. we did not seem to have a certain server. a young woman came once and apologized for waiting for that. Apart from this high point, we had to ask for everything, and no one checked with us how we did it. long after we finished, we had to ask for the check. the food was in order, nothing unforgettable, but pleasant. the service was not present, and the servers were clear. the kitchen seemed slow and deorganized, and not all food came at the same time. they don't seem to care about their guests at all. this is a shame and inspired me unfortunately to write this critique to protect others from a disappointing experience."
