The food is amazing, the staff are great! Always eat the whole dish and if not on the night we take a doggy bag and eat it for lunch the next day. The thai green curry is very nice. The duck dishes are amazingly good. Out whole family seriously enjoys the mixed entrees.

Very disappointing. Had the prawn, scallop and squid stir fry. So Imagine my suprise when maybe one scallop (not sure if it was a scallop, certainly not a fresh one), 3-4 prawns and maybe 3 pieces of calamari was on the plate. Then to my horror as I do not care for them and they were not listed on the menu, two mussels were included. But the ultimate worry was the three pieces of artificial crab. This does not belong on any restaurant dish that one is paying $22 for.

The mixed entree was average and just a little pet peeve of mine is having to have to pay for rice.

I will be calling the manager later today but to be honest, no amount of reassurances would get me to go back there. Very disappointing as some people raved about this place. Can only imagine that there has been a change of owners recently. The rave review from April 2012 was either before the change or written by the owners.

NOTE: have just spoken to them. The chef refered to in the previous review does not seem to be there anymore. That could explain the difference in things.

The manager did seem to be genuine, but not sure he understood my reluctance to complain on the spot as was with a group and most restaurants would not serve artifical crab (so if they tried to defend using it, would just lead to a bigger messier scene). He did offer to pay me back, but we do not live close, so nice to offer, but just really not worth the trip to an area we do not go to regularily.

They’re simply the best! Better than all the rest! Chicken and cashew is my absolute fave, yum, yum, yum! Waitresses are so damn polite and on the ball it’s unbelievable. You would never believe it but the chef isn’t even Thai…he’s a kiwi bloke but cooks the most awesome Thai food!
