Atmosphere
Pros:
"The restaurant's atmosphere was delightful, with a charming ambiance that added to the overall dining experience."
"It’s a cute restaurant and much bigger than it looks from the outside and even from the front area."
"The restaurant seems quite compact, our table was a round table at the back which to be honest was very small for us."
"Otherwise the decor and atmosphere is lovely."
"We went at a quiet time with very few people upstairs, it was decorated well and felt warm and cosy."
"We feel like we've discovered a rare gem."
Cons:
"It’s a tiny place with heavenly food, but the only disappointment was that they did not have most of the fresh juices on the menu."
"The restaurant was quite compact, a bit cramped literally with your backs to the wall."
"Nice decor and the service was pleasant and not overbearing, but my Pad Thai was disappointing."
"It's decorated so prettily with flowers draping the walls and trellises acting as dividers, but the bathrooms are well taken care of and smell good too."
"I was disappointed they didn't have the crab starter, I felt I was being watched by the waitress standing by our table."
"The restaurant is quite small and the tables are tightly packed, sometimes it feels like you’re shoulder to shoulder with your neighbour."
Service
Pros:
"The staff was incredibly friendly, making us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in."
"The service was excellent, quick and efficient, our waiter was very accommodating of our questions as well as dietary preferences."
"Staff very friendly, would come again but probably with a smaller group to ensure a fully comfortable meal."
"The staff here are absolutely delightful. Everyone is so polite and friendly."
"The young waiter boy was really helpful and polite."
"An excellent restaurant with great food and friendly staff."
Cons:
"We had a 7pm booking on a Friday evening and at 8pm, whilst eating, we were told by one of the waitresses that we had 15 minutes remaining at our table."
"The food comes relatively quickly, but I just didn’t find the food to be worth the price."
"They didn't have most of the fresh juices in the menu and neither did they have a beer we ordered."
"One server was lovely but the other seemed annoyed when I asked for anything."
"Food was fine, but not advisable for large groups. We visited on a Sunday lunchtime in a party of 6 adults and 2 kids, were squashed onto a table for 6 then the staff forgot 1 of the starters then again one of the mains."
"When ordering on Deliveroo we attempted to call the restaurant after to discuss some dietary requirements but their phone lines were busy... after 75 calls we figured that the restaurant purposely left their phone off the hook."
Food Quality
Pros:
"The flavours and quality of the food were memorable."
"The food was flavoured and spiced well, there were some new tastes that I was introduced to and there was nothing that I ordered that I wouldn't happily have again."
"The sharing platter was great, especially the pork skewers. The Som Tam needed some more sauce as the papaya turned out a bit bland."
"The squid was tender and fried in light batter - I could have had another portion, it was that delicious!"
"The food was flavourful and came out in good timing following ordering."
"The food was so tasty and felt really authentic."
Cons:
"After enjoying a delicious starter, we found ourselves waiting for a full hour before our main courses arrived."
"The quantities are criminally small and I expected a better taste."
"Thimble sized rice portions and two vegetarian dishes completely bulked out with cabbage. The cashew 'stir fry' was literally just sludge."
"We had five portions of the 'restaurant favourite' sticky chicken which was a little bland."
"My Pad Thai was disappointing. It had quite a lot of bland brown sauce coating the noodles."
"The crispy chicken which was very dry. But they got something wrong with the order and tried to charge for a drink that we didn't order."
