Visited on 5/1/24. We have been to this restaurant many times over the years. After a break, we noticed a slight decline in the food and service quality, but on our recent visit, everything was back to its superb best. We ordered set menu A, and the mixed starter platter was excellent, especially the juicy chicken satay sticks. All three mains were delicious, with the Thai red curry being awesome and the beef in oyster sauce superb. I am puzzled by the one-star reviews and question their authenticity. The service was excellent, and the restaurant is definitely back to its best. It also offers great value for money and remember it is BYO alcohol.
The fact that the restaurant didn't have an empty table while we were there emphasises its popularity and based upon our visit for the first time on Saturday 28th October, it has to be because of the quality of the food and service. We were served quickly, the food was tasty and hot and the young waitresses were very attentive in their duties. It didn't bother us that it wasn't licenced. We just took a bottle of wine with us and paid the one pound per person corkage fee which worked out much cheaper than buying restaurant wine. My partner thought that cost wise it was more expensive than other Thai restaurants we have been to. Whether that was the case or not though is immaterial when you consider how satisfied we were with our evening.
This restaurant is great for amazing food, if your looking for authentic thai food this place is the one for you. We had a variety if dish and I could not fault anything from starters to main. I have travelled to many cities for a great Thai food and this place is now on my top list! worth every penny!!!!
It was okay.Service was nice but food not so great, not as bad as some reviews make it look though. We might give it a second chance soon :
Really poor! Used to be good pre 2020 but we heard a rumour the old owners were back so we decided to give it another go (it wasn’t the case). Prawn starter battered with onion rings???? Swimming in grease. Rib starter cheapest meat poorly cooked. Ordered talapia which was deep fried and had the texture of leather! Really disappointed and won’t be back!
