First time in a long time that we didn’t need takeaway containers as there were no leftovers. Enjoyed the crispy pork as usual so will try other dishes.

Good tasting food and portion sizes. Downside for the Tom yum fried rice is that the crispy pork wasn’t crispy. Will be back to try more dishes!

Food is good and decent portion. Staff were lovely. Small place but nice. Fried rice was very flavourful and fresh. Beef noodle soup was very filling and had a lot of meat and vegetables. Only downside is the broth was too salty for us. But I would eat there again

The food was delicious and fresh. Definitely visiting again when I crave for Thai. Green curry had just the right kick, spicy just as I like it. My family enjoyed the food too. Service on Sunday afternoon was quick even though it was slightly busy

Very polite and ladies. Order Chicken pad thai before lunch time and they were happy enough to serve me which was quite nice. Requested for extra fresh bean sprouts and the lovely ladies provided and was even nice enough to come over and have a chat.
