my favourite little cafe in Darwin. Always good food and love the red lamb curry. Can be noisy when busy but still good. More

Still the best luksa in Darwin. The rest of the food is good too, but I always get a Luksa. It's a little place so big groups don't work and can get noisy with all the chat but it's well worth it. Fast service and good prices. It's hidden in the Star Village :) More

A local said you must go as "it is the best Laksa in town". He may be right, but it isn't the best Laksa we've eaten and I have to say the Laksas at the Parap and the Nightcliff Markets are better. The restaurant is quite hard to find - it is tucked away in the Star Arcade off Smith... More

Tired run down little cafe, surly but fast service. Certainly not the best laksa but ok for western tastes. Ok if you need that laksa fix but I wasn't impressed considering the hype over this place. More

Popped in at lunch today and the atmosphere is just the same, very busy, noisy, fast. Had the laksa again and my mum had a chicken and corn soup. Very tasty. Lots of other lunch time crowds, Other things on the menu is rice, meat and vegetables which are good portions for a hot lunch. The good thing about this... More
