Overall a good dining experience and the front person was very nice and full of character. Only let down was food took a while to come out otherwise a pleasant authentic meal!
The best Thai food in Wellington hands down. The waiter was very funny and friendly and the chicken cashew nut was amazing as well as the deep fried fish in hot chilli sauce.
Had the stir fried chicken in satay sauce with vegetables and deep fried chicken wings in red wine sauce. Both meals were very good. Twenty dollars plus for a main bit pricy but worth it. Staff very friendly and helpful. So Overall 4 out of 5.
Can’t believe I havn’t been there before, real hidden treasure! Can’t fault the evening one bit. Young waiter was excellent and older waiter was hillarious, everyone full of smiles and laid back, left very full and very happy. Will definitely be going there regularly, the food was perfect!
This place has been around for a long time, is local to me, so should review it. Their Tom Yum Goong is probably the best I have had in wellington, and I have had a few times, but some of their other mains can be variable. Many dishes had mixed vegetables which is a bit weird and unnecessary suburban. Mains are around $13.50 but they charge $4 for rice when ordering as a takeaway which is a little disingenuous. Solid performer without being stellar.
Unfortunately this place isn’t as flash as it used to be. Upper city prices in suburbia with minimal meat in dishes and mixed veges thrown in some. Good place for a byo night out but at $20+ a main you would expect better food (someone ordered the fish dish at our table and there was only three or so tiny bits in it). Also, on a prior visit I ordered the duck dish and there was hardly any duck in the dish at all.
Love this place. They are the best in Wellington. Even tho some of the ingredients would not be considered Thai they are using our local produce. Have eaten Thai food in many places around the world and this place is very hard to beat.
