your comments review this restaurant

Found this restaurant by chance - it's easy enough to get to, but not on the tourist trail. Really first class experience. We had mainly seafood, The mixed seafood salad was superb, and they were willing to make it not too spicy for us. Sometimes squid is a disappointment in restaurants, but this was spot on, which basically means not over-cooked I guess! We had it with sticky rice, which went really well with it, washed down with Thai beer. Service was excellent too - friendly but restrained. Prices were reasonable, and I liked that there was no extra service charge. I made a point of asking about this, and was told that any tips left, were distributed evenly among serving and kitchen staff. All in all, a very nice evening.

I highly recommend this restaurant, authentic thai food served by delightful thais! Having lived in Thailand it is a real joy to find a restaurant with excellent food and reasonable prices. The staff are wonderful and couldn't be more helpful.

Overall a nice evening but would not return as there are so many other better Thai restaurants in the area. Had the fried sweet corn cakes for starter, which seemed to be made out of stale sweet corn which made it a little chewy, followed by the Thai green curry. The curry was just quite bland and was not spicy at all, maybe good for some but not what you expect for a Thai green curry. Was quite amusing as I inhaled some rice and a coughing fit ensued. I think they thought that it was due to the curry being too hot and out appeared a box of tissues!

One thing that I can say is that the service is really good-very attentive and it is very good value for money. It has a good atmosphere and the staff are delightful. However, I'm sad to say that with other restaurants in the area which are just as good but with much better food, I would unfortunately find it hard to return.
