Customer Review Summary
Diners most often praise the sizzling dishes, with sizzling pork medallions, sizzling mixed seafood and sizzling sea bass all described as arriving actually sizzling. Close behind are the huge menu and generous portions, with the royal platter starter, steamed Thai dim sum, tempura prawns, crispy fried duck, curry and noodles named as highlights. Reviewers also point to vegetarian options with Quorn and tofu, and say the prices are reasonable, including for drinks. Several note that tables are few and suggest booking. One table of eight reported no trouble with ordering or service. The main criticisms are about people rather than food. One reviewer felt the owner at the till was rude to customers and staff, and another, who spent a large takeaway order and then tried to have a drink in the bar, found the barman rude and unconcerned after being told of a minimum card spend. A lower-rated review called the overcooked fried rice disappointing, and noted that staff could not say what goes into the seafood fried rice. One reviewer wished for authentic desserts, while another praised the sweets.

“I didn't really want to review this place as I'd rather keep it to myself lol. Food is awesome. Service is lovely and it's pretty well priced for Thai food. You'll need to book as it gets busy. Well worth a visit.”

“It's so tiny and I'm not just talking about the chef! The menu however is huge with over 70 choices of starters and mains. We had the royal platter starter which was simply amazing followed by a couple of mains and side dishes. The meal for 2 is huge! Great sweets too, which is brilliant for a Thai restaurant... You must book though as numbers of tables are small 😎”
