      Very pleasant, attentive staff. Food is delicious, not your usual run of the mill local Thai restaurants where every menu is the same. Recommended.   (maisie - See my reviews (7) - October, 2009)

      We didn´t eat much but I didn´t really like the yellow curry - a bit too heavy. The spring rolls were great though.

      I would say that the interior needs a bit of refurbishing and I´m not a fan of restaurants that are doubling as shops.

      The service was pretty good but we had a number of different waiters so it did get a bit confusing.

      Like most Thai restaurants it was overally good value for money.   (James - See my reviews (6) - July, 2009)

      I ordered the herbal pork knuckle last night and it was a disaster. The meat was stone hard and cold. On the plus side, when I asked to have the dish replaced, I was received with excellent and prompt service by the waiting staff. Unfortunately, the replacement pork was just as disappointing. In short - the curries and seafood are far better than the meat only dishes.   (Unhappy customer - May, 2009)
