Jaya is an unreal experience. The food is unbelievable. I have been at least ten times and it always blows me away. This restaurant is a must. Not only is the food exceptional, but the ambiance is magnificent. You get to see extremely talented performers and listen to upbeat and fun music. The drinks are also delicious but definitely expensive so I would recommend simply going for the food and having a drink either before or after on your own. But, if you want to spend a little extra then get the Lychee martini.

Hard to believe that we paid a lot and I still can say “we got value for our money”. The service was knowledgeable and friendly. Realizing that we had 3 children in our 3 generation party of 6 and that children at times “cannot wait” service made sure that bread and then appetizers arrived rapidly. The food as usual was outstanding from start to finish. When the staff realized that it was my birthday they added to our desert collection a birthday cake plus candle. On top of the great food we all experienced life music plus performance of talented dancers. An unforgettable night.
