I agree with what's been said before, it's pricey, but I think the drinks are more than worth it. They beat the drinks at the Bahrain Trader Vic's easily, lately the Mai Tai's there have been getting blander and tarter but the ones in Bangkok were great. The '44 Mai Tai was especially delicious. I also had a Bangkok Sour, it uses local whiskey, that goes down really well. The E'Ville Awa wasn't bad either. Overall I enjoyed the atmosphere of the place, though both times I visited it was pretty dead. The staff was very friendly and nice. The (non-live) music tended towards Caribbean beats and jazz, which I think worked in that environment.
