I agree with the other review. When the other bigger jewelers used to say "No, this can't be fixed" I would take it here, and it would always be fixed for a fraction of what I expected to pay. I now start here and have also had some amazing hand crafted jewelery made by this exceptional tradesman. Highly recommend for all jobs, big and small.

I have never been to a busier Thai restaurant. It was packed yet the staff were very efficient. The decor is exceptional. The restaurant is impeccable and the food extremely authentic. The restaurant oozes class yet their prices are very competitive with other local restaurants. Would definitely recommend this for a great night out.

Approximate cost: $18

This restaurant could be an absolute hit if they take the feedback they have constantly received regarding their appalling customer service and reluctance to please their customers and honour any special requests. Some of the waiters are so rude that they make you feel so unwelcome to the point where my partner was too scared to even ask them a question because of prior rude and abrupt answers. They virtually threw our companions meal at her across the table, they removed bottles of wine that weren't empty, then upon realising their error filled whichever glass was the closest regardless of what they were actually drinking without even asking. It is a shame because we are the people that pay their wages and if this service continues, people will find elsewhere to dine where the food may not be as nice, but the service is as it should be. I am not one who believes that the customer is always right, but the staff here believe that they are the only ones whose opinion matters, and make no effort to hide or disguise their contempt for paying customers. Avoid unless desperate to be treated with contempt by staff

Approximate cost: $22
