Was there last night and we were the only table. We ordered green curry chicken and beef panang. From the time we ordered until the food came out was about 2 minutes, which I thought was super weird.Ive never had green curry like this before. It was more grey, flavourless and overall extremely boring. By far the worst green curry weve ever had. The only redeeming quality was the grilled egg plant in it, which was really good.The panang was a bit better but still pretty bland. Decent amount of (low quality) beef. Not the worst Ive had but far from great. I dont think well be back.
My family shared the shanghai noodles, thai basil boneless basa fish, and special bean cake hot pot.The shanghai noodles was good but needs a little more seasoning (but can be easily fixed with some soy sauce).My family LOVES the thai basil boneless basa fish! All-time favourite dish! Perfect amount of flavour. The fish is battered and fried to perfection, then topped with a thick coconut curry sauce. What I love about this dish is that the batter on the fish doesn’t get soggy from the sauce (unless you take it home and reheat it). The texture of the battered fish and sauce is consistent throughout your entire meal. If you like fish then be sure to try this dish!The final dish we tried was the special bean cake hot pot. Its loaded with meat/seafood and vegetables. Everything in the dish was perfectly cooked and had nice textures all-around. I found the sauce to be a little bland but not surprising for a hot pot dish (but you can add soy sauce and hot sauce if you want). The slight blandness didn’t bother me as long as the seafood and vegetables aren’t overcooked then I’m happy.The service was great! The restaurant was quite busy but our server made sure he constantly checked up on us. Update:we went there recently and tried the pad thai, which I found to be very fishy in taste and smell (too much fish sauce) and it didn’t really have that slight sweetness that pad thais should have (combo of sweet, spicy, with a slight citrus flavour). It was edible but I probably wouldn’t get it again. I also didn’t like the vietnamese rolls. Very greasy (that’s expected) and just loaded with carrots..not how vietnamese rolls are traditionally made. It should’ve had more than glass noodles and carrots in them. We also ordered the basil basa fish (again) and once again, it was perfectly cooked.
