3ta - Mountain View

3ta is a new “Fusion” restaurant that just opens in downtown Mountain View. It has a beautiful, trendy look and a well-stocked bar that is actually a large part of the restaurant. As far as food goes, it was fine. For the most part, it is Vietnamese and Thai fusion, with some other small random things that are thrown in. We had a Vietnamese role that was fine, although I never enjoyed any of these types of appetizers. They also had some crab cakes that were decent... nothing too remarkable about them. For my duck, I had a fillet with curry and gnocchi. It was interesting and tasteful, and the beef was very delicate... but overall it was more interesting than good. Dessert was the strong point: her chocolate Java cake is excellent. They do not serve coffee (at least not at this time) with their desserts! What the hell?! All in all, reasonable food, but nothing too amazing, and the price is quite high. Try if you enjoy Vietnamese food, but I wouldn't go back except for dessert and/or drinks.

I and a threesome of friends were looking for a place to eat in a Friday night and we stumbled over this place. We went to check the menu and the music is what keeps us to stay. The music was not your typical restaurant music, but things we actually liked. 3ta is the new Thai restaurant on the block, but the difference is that they are mixed with everything else in the world. You have everything from Ahi to Saffron rice and Lobster to submit. It is not a typical Thai restaurant. All right to good stuff. We had a feast. We had cowboy rolls (which is sushi without fish and filled with marinated beef, roti (which is fine by itself, but with the sauce was amazing!!!) , Chicken Satay (typically from every Thai restaurant quite good, but wish they had beef or pigs choices too. For dinner I had the cunning fillet (I have to say for a thai restaurant or any restaurant was pretty good, my girlfriend had the scallops (she said they were the best they ever had and so I had to try them out and they were pretty good, I had to exchange her a piece of my fillet for one. My mates shared three dishes one was the ribs (which fell directly from the bone, but tasted like most Asian restaurant ribs “good, but had them before” is what my mate said, another was the Shisha mushrooms (which the waitress recommened and they were really good they said they were better with Asaragus who had sick yet to try the next time, and the lobster mate thai it was somehow good. The banana thing was really good, but it was hard to share two pieces with 5 people. All in all alone the food was great!!! Why I gave it 5 stars. The bar was one of the best restaurants in the street. Large drinks a lot of alcohol in the drinks, but still tasted good. The staff were all really young and everyone was super nice. Our waitress was funny and laughed through the meal. We meet the owner who gave this young Asian guy and he gave us gunshots on him. In all the restaurant is amazing, great atmosphere (music, staff, and the amazing colors on the wall great food and great drinks, what you could ask more?
