Stumbled across this place while needing to grab an early dinner in the area. Actually enjoyed the service it was professional and efficient. The food was simple and tasty and presented nice! Not too overpowering. Loved the soft shell crab dish, it was more crisp than many places. A family friendly relaxed environment.

Wow wow wow!! Thank you so much for such an enjoyable night last night. Our waiter was so attentive, friendly and on the ball! We didn’t once have to follow anything up and he even gifted us with a glass of baileys each for our birthday! We had a wonderful time and will be back! The food was amazing!

Our first visit. We were very impressed with the ambience. A spacious restaurant with a good mix of seating combinations. An attentive and pleasant waitress. Chose from the lunch menu. Was a generous serve. Food was delicious. Water was served without having to ask. Bill for two less than $40. Will now be our regular Thai for lunch. Lunch only available Thursday and Friday.

Absolutely loved the Thai Pineapple Fried Rice! The flavours were incredible — perfectly balanced with a hint of sweetness from the fresh pineapple and beautifully seasoned rice. Every bite had that authentic Thai aroma and a burst of vibrant ingredients. The presentation was stunning too, making the whole dish feel special. Highly recommended if you want something delicious, refreshing, and full of flavour!
