My partner ordered the pad Thai, and they were pleased to accommodate dietary preferences. They declared it one of the best pad Thais they've ever had. I opted for the special blue elephant curry, and saying it was the best curry I've ever tasted would be an understatement—I wish I could drink it straight from a cup! Speaking of drinks, the homemade apple juice was exceptionally fresh. Overall, my experience was fantastic, and this restaurant has definitely secured a spot on my list of top dining experiences. I do have two minor complaints: the seating became a bit uncomfortable after a long time, and the waiter accidentally mixed my curry with my rice, which softened it all and left no curry. Given how amazing it was, that was a bit disappointing. Nonetheless, I will definitely be back, and I plan to try something new each time, although I might just have to order that curry again!

The inviting atmosphere and authentic Thai decorations transport me back to Thailand. The staff is very friendly and provided us with plenty of helpful information about the menu. Each main dish comes in generous portions at an affordable price, making it absolutely worth it. It’s a must-stop for me whenever I drive from the city to the south. Looking forward to my next visit!

Food was great, herb wraps were really unique. Nice decor and atmosphere. Wish there were some more interesting non alcoholic drinks or mocktails.

Recommend the red duck curry and pad thai. Unfortunately the steam sticky rice banana dessert was unavailable, even though we were one of the early people dining in. Will need to come back to try this and their other dishes.
