Thai with a modern twist! We ordered the bbq pork shoulder, the red curry duck with lychees and pineapple and the roti bread. The food was lovely enriched with wonderful flavours. Ingredients were fresh and service was fast. The only minor comment was that the roti bread was very oily with oil oozing out as you bit into it. The staff are attentive and friendly making an overall a great dining experience. For dessert we ordered the pandan cake with coconut (didn't get a picture unfortunately) which was also delicious.

I had my birthday dinner here with a group of 16, they were very accommodating and friendly. I received a free birthday shot and cake! The chicken BBQ wasn't that great ( a bit dry) the barramundi was pretty good and big ( the papaya salad was a hit) beef masamman was 7.5/10 the meat could have been more tender! I loved their pork meatballs and satay sticks! I didn't get to try most dishes ????

One of the better tasting Thai food in Brisbane. Ordered the red duck curry and Thai wagyu steak. Both were exceptional. The duck was cooked perfectly and the curry had the right amount of tanginess and sweetness from the pineapples and lychees. It's definitely one of the best Thai curries I've tasted out of Asia! It's so distinctive and refreshing. The steak was decent but the nam jim jaew sauce was the element that made this dish so flavoursome.

Great location, good environment with both indoors and outdoors area, various of beverage choices with reasonable price. Everything is prefect Just the cashier is a bit unfriendly.

Great dining option for large groups work lunches (be prepared to book before hand as it does get busy during peak lunch periods . Have dined here multiple times now and can confirm that food consistently never disappoints! Although pricey, you do in return get very generous servings. My favourite is the pad thai : .
