Price is good. The seafood red curry was good, but the beef thick rice noodles was super duper spicy for a medium heat. Also the noodles was over cook…

Possibly the worst restaurant I’ve ever visited. Expensive, terrible service and tiny portions (I though my dish was a side). Avoid at all costs.
Authentic deco, well-dressed Thai staff.That’s it.Overpriced menu, less-than-authentic vietnamese dishes. This place is definitely more Thai than Vietnamese.For starters a plate of pad thai is $19.50 ($4-5 more expensive than other places. Heck, I can get a plate of pad thai at $10 back in Auckland in far greater quantity). I ordered the beef pho – and let me tell you – for someone who knows her phos very well – it was far from authentic. Even a franchise like Han San does it better (and way cheaper too). Bean sprouts were dumped into the soup (when it’s usually served separately with a wedge of lemon). The beef slices were thick as – it was a chewing marathon (it should be thinly sliced pieces). And they didn’t serve me with usual Vietnamese condiments – just a bowl and that’s it. Awful awful awful. And it was $20.50! I expected more from a THai/Viet establishment.
We ordered Tom Yum soup, and satey chicken for entrée, Red beef curry and fried rice for Main.Entrée were both OK, except the tiny kid’s size of the soup, but it was the mains that were very disappointing.First of all, the menu clearly said the curry comes with Jasmin rice. But actually it doesn’t and we were charged$4 for a tiny bowl of steamed rice, which after we complained about and was taken off from the bill.Fried rice was very very soggy. This was a huge disappointment for my wife. Taste of the fried rice was too sweet and not deep ‘Thai’ taste we experienced from eating in Thailand, and various other restaurants both in NZ and overseas.Wait stuff was friendly enough but food was disappointing. We’re not going back there in a hurry.
My husband and I came here for lunch in May 2014 using a deal voucher. The staff were dressed authentically and the service was good overall. They asked for the voucher straight away and took my phone away to scan. (A little unprofessional, I prefer to do this at the end but not really a biggie). The place was clean and we had a good seat in the window. The food took a wee while to come out (on a tight lunch break) but was tasty and well presented. Would recommend, although not sure I’d return to pay full price.
Went here for lunch today. The food was flavourless, extremely bland. There was no heat in the meals despite them rating it as medium hot. Also the portion size was tiny. We went straight to another restaurant for a proper meal straight after. Would not recommend.
Enjoyable night out. Comfortable atmosphere, fantastic food, very efficient service and accommodating to any requests. Would definitely return and recommend it to the family.
Outstanding meal, great service. The duck was amazing. Party of five, well served and organised. Thanks for a great night. We had three courses and the turn around on each course was excellent. The restaurant was full so great that we got our meals so quickly.I would recommend.
