The food is average. Red curry is too sweet. The roast pork was above average and the pork with basil was the best amongst the dishes ordered. Their take away portions were of decent size and hence pretty fair pricing for local standards. Restaurant size is big but service a little slow in terms of food prep. Staff were friendly and helpful.
Great Asian cuisine with a solid menu selection. The food was delicious, reasonably priced, and the portion sizes were just right. The décor really adds to the experience, with beautiful Thai artwork throughout the venue and an incredible elephant feature wall that really stands out. However, the night I visited felt quite chaotic. The restaurant seemed short-staffed, and the waitress was clearly under the pump doing her best. Unfortunately, this meant long waits for meals, and even food delivery drivers were visibly frustrated by delays. Overall, tasty food and a lovely setting, but the service experience would definitely improve with a few extra staff on shift.
Great Thai spot close to Fisherman’s Wharf! Dishes are really good and at great prices. Got the Panang curry and it was delicious and perfectly seasoned! Relatively short wait and the environment is lively for meeting with friends. Free ice cream for reviews as well!
We arrived around 2:45 PM and managed to place our order just before the kitchen closed for lunch. We started with several appetizers: Roti, Papaya Salad, Curry Puff, Fresh Rolls, and Chicken Satay. The Curry Puff was the standout, while the Papaya Salad - served with cabbage instead of the more typical lettuce - was let down. The rest of the starters were okay. For entrees, we had Pad Rad Na, Red Curry, and Basil Fried Rice - all of which were quite good. The highlight, however, was the Pad Kee Mao. We chose mild spice levels, which turned out to be too tame; a higher spice level would’ve been better. Unfortunately, the experience was somewhat dampened when we were rushed to leave around 3:30 PM. If the kitchen closes early, it would be better not to accept orders past 2:30 PM. Rushing diners out feels inconsiderate and takes away from the experience. A clearer policy or better communication would go a long way. That aside, we still enjoyed a good lunch overall.
Very friendly staff. Quick service. Fresh, hot food. We arrived when they opened at 4:30. On a previous visit we had the pad kae mao noodles, a classic. We ordered the green curry and pineapple fried rice with soft tofu and no mushrooms. The pineapple fried rice tasted good. If you are sensitive to the smell of eggs, we suggest you ask for no eggs. The pineapple trunks were a little too large for our preference and they forgot the remove the mushrooms. By the time our food arrived, the restaurant was packed. They get really busy! The green curry was good, we took leftovers home and it tasted too sweet.
