Cons:

  • "Ordered the vege pad Thai for main and had two bites, partner tried it and also agreed. It really wasn’t good."
  • "Tom Kha chicken was to much of coconut cream and FULL of these very hard things(in the picture )that I had to keep taking out of my mouth(very annoying)."
  • "However on this occasion I was not impressed with the noodle dish I ordered which was rather slimy and a bit tasteless."
  • "As a selection of (many) Thai plates it felt quite westernised - where was the heat, the lime, fish sauce or the pungency of shrimp paste."
  • "Terrible experience, the lamb curry was extremely fatty and the duck curry was requested hot, but had no flavour at all."
  • "Chicken Pad Thai - which I found a little bland and geared towards a British crowd rather than traditional street food style."
