★★★★★“The food was one of the best thai I’ve had. Curry puffs were so delightful and flavourful, hot and crispy and soft with a tasty sauce. Flavourful chicken satay with sauce. Pad thai was also really good, salty sweet and sour. We also got a duck stir fry and that was really special, very tender and flavourful. The slow cooked beef curry was the best, so tender and super flavourful with the soft flaky roti canai. No notes.”

★★★★★“Had a really positive experience at this Thai restaurant. The menu had a great variety of options, from curries and noodles to stir-fries and entrees. The food tasted fresh and well prepared, with generous servings and plenty of flavour. The red curry was creamy, slightly spicy, and packed with flavour, while the spring rolls were crispy and came out hot. I also appreciated that the service was friendly without feeling rushed. The restaurant had a nice relaxed feel, making it a good place for both dine-in and takeaway. Overall, a very solid Thai restaurant that I would recommend.”

★★★★★“Very reasonably priced restaurant. We had the $45 set menu, which offered a great variety of dishes — all tasty, generous, and very filling. The portion sizes were more than adequate. Service was pleasant and welcoming, and although the restaurant wasn’t particularly busy on the night we visited, there was no attempt to rush us out the door. A solid local eatery with good food, generous servings, and friendly service.”

★★★★★“I just went out to eat yesterday. The food was very delicious, and they’ve just introduced a new menu item: soft shell crab Pad Pong Karee. It looks really appetising.”

★★★★★“This lovely restaurant opened especially for lunch on Sunday for our large family function. The decor is modern and clean, with tablecloths and nice wine glasses. The service was friendly and efficient. The food was top quality Thai food with a variety of dishes ranging from fish cakes, fried rice, spicy beef salad, deep fried fish, prawns, omelette, grilled beef and chicken and of course the the crispy pork (delicious!). All in all a wonderful lunch at a delightful restaurant. Would highly recommend it.”
