Avantika

Great thai restaurant in Philsburg, St Matreen dutch side. Visited with family - its on the second floor, seating is both indoor & outdoor. Reservation highly recommended for outdoor seating. Ambience is good and service is excellent. We tried panang curry, veg pad thai, veg basil fried. Food was tasty and portion size was generous. Highly recommend for veg option close to middle of philsburg.

We had dinner at Avantika on our first night, and it was a great experience. The atmosphere is intimate and romantic — perfect for a quiet evening out. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome right away. My wife is vegan, and they were accommodating with the menu, which we really appreciated. The food came out fairly quickly, and everything tasted great — flavorful and beautifully presented. We ordered one appetizer, two entrées, a mojito, and a Diet Coke. Prices are on the higher side, but the quality and service made it worth it. Overall, it was a lovely evening and a 5-star experience. We’d definitely come back again, just maybe not too often because of the price.

Nice local find with reasonable prices. We had Pad Thai and Thai Basil Stir Fry. Both were ample portions with good flavor. Pad Thai was a bit dry so be sure to ask for additional sauce. Brought some leftovers home. Place was empty as this is low season, but the food stands out.

We will not be back.This is an unacceptable wait time. I made reservations for 6pm all 8 guests arrived on time. It took until almost 8pm for us to get our food and they were missing one main course. That missing meal didn't even arrive to the table until the rest of us were finished. We when asked to speak to a manager, they never stopped in to speak with us. That is until after we paid. I have never experienced such poor service. If time is money, then save yourself the time. I would recommend going to Astra instead, which is located near this restaurant.

Small little jem on a second floor of a building hidden inside. We chose to sit outside and it was great. Someone at another table was smoking and we asked to be moved, which was not a problem. I got apicy chilly and it was great. Kids had Thai fried rice and loved it as well. Atmosphere was relaxing and quit. Was 2 minutes drive from a hotel and was able to get parking right away. Win-win. Asked the kids to rate all the places we went to over the past week and hands down this was second choice for everyone.

The waiter ! the kitchen ! Its the crazy place ! ...we waiting 1h30 to get our food ... The owner or the waiter want us to get food after waiting 1h30 or it call the police ...so we have to pay !!! Shame on this place !!! We leaving here and we never see this attitude Leaving this area its a shame place ... it will not should existe in this island 😱😱😱😱

Appealing food. Unappealing service. It leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

Out of all the resturants we visited this time around this was the best experience. The waiter was amazing, food was hot and served fresh. Drinks were well made. They accept credit cards and no need to make reservations for small groups on a day like today. Perfect date night for us.
