I always get my Pad Thai here. I am fussy about my food and nobody does it better

The food IS good, but it just annoys me that they charge a surcharge to use your eftpos card and I do find that staff can be a little rude and abrupt. The place is always busy and while the service is quick I do find they tend to rush you out the door. Red Duck curry and Pork ribs are very good.

One of the best Thai restaurants in Sydney in my opinion. I've been a few times and will definitely be coming back!

First thing to note is that it is quite small and you can expect to wait at peak lunch/dinner times. Not sure if they take reservations but if you walk-in they often ask if you can finish by a certain time (~1.5-2 hours). Service is friendly and efficient and food comes quick so this isn't much of an issue for me.

Upon my most recent visit, we ordered two raw (sashimi style) dishes for entree. The beef tartare is very very spicy!! But the flavours are delicious and it was a great start to the meal. I would definitely recommend ordering a thai milk tea to cool your mouth though. The raw scallop dish was lovely with very subtle, delicate flavours.

For mains we ordered the twice-cooked sweet and sour sticky pork ribs. These are amazing!! I have these every time I visit and they are so delicious with the meat falling off the bone. We also ordered the thai green curry which was delicious and quite different to green curries I've had elsewhere - not too spicy either.

Although I didn't have dessert this time I would highly recommend the black sticky rice with jasmine tapioca, thai milk tea ice cream and mango - delicious and not too heavy after such a filling meal.

Great Thai food in a modern setting! The pad thai here doesn't dissapoint and I'd also recommend the pork belly dish. You can easily park in the Westfield parking space (3 hours with validation). Great option for takeaway lunch or sit in lunch or dinner!

I have been to there it's quite busy all the time. We went there with colleagues the food was really delicious. Book them before you go there otherwise you will disappoint with the waiting list.
Would come here again

Good variety to suit both meat and non-meat eaters alike. Ordered the Green Curry Chicken, green papaya salad as well as octopus and pork ball skewers. All dishes were flavoursome, fresh ingredients used and beautifully prepared. Parents with prams not recommended as the joint is quite tiny and cramped. Food is reasonably priced. Will definitely be back to try other dishes on the menu.
