Everything they serve is amazing. My family came because we couldn't find anything available anywhere else, and 2 minutes into our meal we decided this place will be a regular thing from now on. I had the the honey duck. Everyone raved about it.

The food was amazing and the place was beautiful! My husband had the orange duck, I think, and he keeps saying "it was the best meal he's ever had at a restaurant !'

You can drive by this restaurant and not realize what you missed!!!! The turn-in to the parking lot is quick also!
My son was invited to a friend's birthday party here. It's a very intimate and cozy ambience; a series of turns until reaching the small banquet area. There was room for about 15 of us and a table with appetizers was set up at the entrance to the dining area. (The vegetable rolls were beyond words!!!!)
Everyone had the option to order their own plate: Chicken, Salmon.....
I ordered the chicken and when I seen the serving size, I didn't think I would finish it. But it was cooked

This place has always been our family favorite. But this last time with takeout, on 2 orders of the ahi tuna appetizer was riddled with cartilage. On rare tuna, it is not nice. The tuna was sliced, so the chef knew he was sending out "yuck" stuff.
Something to be avoided here.

Not what I would consider Thai food at all. My partner and I ordered a few appetizers and main courses. The red chicken curry and red duck curry were not what we expected when ordering Thai food. Both had the core components but weren't even close to what you would get at other nearby places... ahem.... Scranton and Wilkes-Barre. Each had a protein that was grilled or baked, not even cooked or sliced into the sauce. The veggies were more basic than Chinese food, not even a sliver of ginger or other Thai botanicals. Beautiful location, shameful food...

I really wasn’t so happy about the food... for the price it just didn’t seem good enough to choose this for my Asian food place. Pad Thai was alright but nothing that would trump another location. Customer service is the only thing getting them 3 stars, the woman who helped us was genuinely lovely.

If a specific ingredient in a dish on the menu is important to you, for example tofu in the vegetable curry, ask before you order that they have it. Your dish might come without and I assume they hope you won't notice it. When you point it out, the server just says, "Oh yeah, that , we don't have it!". Why it's it on your menu then? And why didn't you tell me when I was ordering?

One of the Scranton-areas best, upscale Asian restaurants. Live jazz trio on Wednesday nights. Business casual attire is fine. The food was excellent and the portions were large enough that no one in our party left hungry (plus some of us took home leftovers). The staff was terrific and the decor was classy without being overwhelming. My wife and I left with plans for what we'll order next time we go.

We visited tonight for the first time in many years for our anniversary. We tried the seafood ravioli appetizer special, the Cantonese noodle bowl and the surf and turf special. All were delicious! The filet was wonderfully tender and cooked perfectly, and my husband really enjoyed the noodles, which was a large portion. We will definitely be back for another special occasion.

I highly recommend Formosa . Food is consistently great. I have been eating there for at least 5 years or more and it's great. Seafood ravioli is fabulous. Chef is very consistent. I actually crave their food and go at least every few months . Really , this is one of the best restaurants in Scranton area . Also the atmosphere is wonderful. Beautiful decor. Wonderful service . No rushing you through your meal. You will definitely not be sorry !!!

I travel for work so all I do is eat out. The environment is nice with faux plants and all. Service is good. Very intimate. I got the lobster and my girlfriend got the curry. The sauce was good but the quality of the meat is sub par. The chicken was under cooked and had a very rubbery and rough texture. I drove 25 minutes to get here and was disappointed for sure. I wouldn't recommend coming here if you have experienced outside of small town Asian cuisine.

One of the best restaurants in the area. The menu has a variety of enjoyable staples with signature sauces like champagne saffron and Thai basil. Specials are also offered nightly and just add to the awesomeness of the menu. Each meal is well prepared and tasty. Highly recommended for an enjoyable dinner.

....and that ladies and gentleman, is how it's done. Mood, meal, value, service. Spot on.

To be completely honest, I didn't think restaurants like this existed up here. No offense to anyone form these parts, I think I have a pass to say that as my hubby is from NEPA (Northeastern PA). We came for a date night on a Friday at 9:30pm and the place was empty. We were hoping that wasn't a sign. It definitely wasn't!

VIBES: The place is beautiful, from the dragon head oversized door knockers, to the ornate ceilings, fresh bamboo on each table, dark bar and detailed archways. The

I have been eating here for more than 10 years.. Everything about this place is classy.. The food is extremely, and I mean extremely good.. The atmosphere is perfect.. Low lighting, not too bright.. They serve alcohol, and the bartender has always been on point with drinks. Restrooms are extremely clean which is always a plus. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure they accommodate you in every way. Hands down one of my favorite places in NEPA..

Nothing special, wanna be high-end Chinese restaurant. Just because of seared Ahi Tuna they are getting extra star, otherwise blah.

Never had a bad meal ! The crispy honey duck is a favorite of mine a close runner up is the Filet butter , garlic ! The waiters are not only good at their jobs but have great personalities to boot. Thursday night is live jazz night, and is nice and relaxing to dine to.
Pad Thai also VERY good
I will end this review with saying save room for dessert! They are all fantastic I am a huge fan of the homemade coconut ice cream

I was very impressed with the food, the establishment is a bit reserved but very comfortable. The staff puts a lot of effort to make sure you have everything you need. And as I stated when I started, the food was excellent (I had the vegetable tofu with red curry).

I wish 3.5 stars was an option. Our appetizer was delicious, but the two main courses were nothing to write home about. I feel like if we ordered something else, it could have changed the rating.

I almost forgot, our waiter was great!

This is probably the *best* restaurant in NEPA...

Amazing decor, very Asian... check out the ceiling. Great for dates, families, special occasions.

Asian fusion food with incredible presentation. Everything on the menu is excellent. Service is very professional, top-notch. The servers are very attentive and knowledgeable.

-It is a laid-back atmosphere, but don't sweatpants here. Dress nice.
-Make sure you get reservations.
-Very classy and tastefully done.
-They have a bar, but it's small... this is more of an eating place rather than a hang out.
-Their website is cheesy, don&apos
