Went there with a groupon voucher. Food is adequate, but that is about it for this restaurant. Service is fastfood-like, anyway a 10% service was added to my bill (which I refused to pay). Important: don't leave your coats on the hooks at the entrance: they will stink of fried spring rolls for ever!

I thought the food was great (the crispy fish was delicious). My partner had the dumpling as a starter, which he loved and had the squid as a main, which he thought was okay. The service was great - the waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and very attentive. Good value restaurant, cash only policy but there was signs... More

I visited this restaurant with a colleague using a voucher from the Daily Telegraph - 2 courses plus rice for 2 for £15. The food was nice enough - certainly not the best Thai food I've ever tasted, but perfectly adequate. I wasn't very impressed with the service - we were still eating starters when the waitress came over and... More

We went with a Groupon voucher and did enjoy our meal, the starter to share was great. The red curry was not very good however. It had a very thin sauce and not much flavour. Not how it should be! My friend had the crispy duck wraps and enjoyed them. Our wine was nice and the service was good.

The night I ate there it was snowing, which may explain why it was so quiet - just me and two couples at 8.30 on a Saturday night. The plate of noodles I had was delicious and the waitress pleasant and helpful, though she didn't offer me a sweet menu once I had finished my main course, which was okay... More

We had a groupon voucher so tried this restaurant out for the first time. I had prawns fried in batter to start which were freshly cooked and very light. My wife had chicken satay which again was very fresh long strips of tender chicken. I had a tofu masaman and my wife a tofu yellow curry for main together with... More

Once you visit once, you'll soon be coming back for more! From the moment you walk in, the staff are so welcoming and friendly, and are willing to help you in any way they can. And the food? To die for. I've pretty much samled everything on this menu, and I love it all, it's so hard to choose just... More
