Entered this home-style Thai restaurant eager to have our dinner! Was met with slow-ish service during the beginning of the night; would love it if the staff amped up their enthusiasm to make guests feel more welcomed. The highlight dishes of the night were definitely the prawns! Cooked to perfection- so fresh tasting and for a great price, too. We ordered the Spring Roll Prawns, Chris’s Royal Thai Chili Basil Prawns which were complete standouts! The lemongrass coconut Thai sauce was subtle in its favouring, giving the vegetables and the prawns a lovely hit! The cashews were also a wonderful touch to their speciality dish. The coconut rice, for $3, was also a great addition (despite its basicness, you can go wrong with rice sometimes, but not here).
On a not so positive note, the roti bread was quite greasy and stiff (not fluffy and soft), which was a bit disappointing. Additionally, the Green Curry Chicken tasted too strongly of coconut milk, however, I’m not too sure if that is the result of us asking the curry to be mild and not too spicy. Damian’s Yellow Curry Vegetables with Tofu was thoroughly enjoyed by our family, heavy I did find the curry to also be quite creamy (the potatoes were also rock hard!). Apart from that, the vegetable mixture was diverse and the tofu was very flavourful and soft (so delicious!)
The Pad Thai Prawn (Authentic Thai style) serving we found to be too small, especially for $20! Although it was very enjoyable, my sister was definitely not satiated! We ended the night by ordering the Sticki Rice & Durian which was served warm and in the cutest glass! This was another favourite of the night, seeing as we usually don’t come for dessert!
Overall, the size of the curries and dishes were really worth the price (minus the Pad Thai serving), and I wouldn’t say the flavours from the dishes would make this the best Thai restaurant in town, however, I wouldn’t mind to come back and have some of their House Specialties again.
