Food Quality and Taste

Pros:

  • "Food is good, rich in flavour and well seasoned."
  • "The food had bold Thai flavours, presented in a truly Thai style."
  • "The fried chicken was crunchy and tender, the curry was sour and spicy, and the beef was extra tender."
  • "Love the pork and beef curry. The one with cashews is special, good for a try."
  • "Food was amazing too but keep in mind that the portions are small relative to the price."
  • "Loved the food here. Flavors were bold. Just the right amount of sweet, sour, spicy."
  • "Highly recommend the khua kling gai if you like it spicy, and the beef massaman and pork belly are sublime."
  • "Very authentic south thai food. I’m asian and can eat spicy but when it says it’s spicy it’s VERY hot."

Cons:

  • "The fried morning glory is too sweet."
  • "The beef massaman was over cooked and the pieces should be smaller."
  • "The pork belly too fatty and the seasonal veg starter was just raw cucumber, lettuce, and other vegetables."
  • "The food is just outstanding every time, and great value for central London."
  • "Everything is a bit spicy, overall tasted good, but a bit overpriced I think as the portion is a bit small like tapas size."
  • "The portion of the dish is ridiculously small. Especially the rice portion."
