Went out for a meal with friends. We were welcomed and shown to our seats with menus. So much to chose from and when the food arrived it was beautiful so well flavoured freshly cooked and delicious. Will definitely be back. Highly recommend

The quality of the food was fantastic and the service was wonderful. The only thing I’d say is that I found the portion sizes (of both the starter and the main) to be a bit too big. But there’s no doubt that this is a restaurant I’d recommend!

7pm on a Saturday night-it was manic! Staff were lovely but felt sorry for them as they were rushed off their feet. Seating very basic, my chicken teryaki was dry but everyone else enjoyed their meal. We were rushed out, weren't offered dessert or coffee just presented with bill when we hadn't requested it! I m sure it will settle as not opened too long.

Booked a table for nearly 2wks before for my wife’s 50th birthday. I requested a table in the window with a view of the river. We arrived 10 mins early. No table booked, got seated in the corner of the restaurant at a table for 4. Not a good start. On further viewing I noticed non of the tables had a river view. There s 3ft wall built outside of the restraint. You can see the top of the bridge only. The service was good considering the 4 staff were ran off there feet. We asked for water but sadly it came at the end. The food was probably the best Thai food we’ve had anywhere. It’s a shame they seem to squeeze as many tables in as they have. It would be more relaxed for the dinners and a better service with less tables.

Nice authentic Thai food,good selection of drinks. Charming staff. Only negative a bit too much MSG and salt used in the food but I'm sure this will be rectified on request on our next visit.

We had a sharing platter as a starter which was really good. My partner's main course wasnt available, which should have been pointed out when the menus were given. I asked if it was possible the seafood salad could be mild, l was told it could, or otherwise l would have choosen a different dish. It was so hot l could not taste what l was eating.

Food was lovely however service was very slow. We asked for water for the table and this never came so had to ask again. Drinks didn’t end up coming until the starters came. Bit of a shame as the restaurant itself is lovely and the food is great.

Duck spring rolls could have had more duck in them but the crispy pork was awesome, service was spot on and cost of food not too bad either. Not the first time I’ve been here and it certainly won’t be the last either!!
