The food was really lovely! Have never had a bad meal here. The waitress was lovely, but she did loiter close to our table which was a bit off putting. She even leaned in between 2 guests while they were having a conversation, which they had to stop as they couldn't see each other!
Will definitely go back!

Food and service are always excellent. It's noisy inside, so if in a large party you can only talk to the people near you. However, we're returning customers, and I'm sure we will be back many times.

Ordered pick-up from here. Great food, highly recommend the Banana Fritters and Tom Ka Mushroom soup (delicious). I got the Vegetable Rice Vermicelli with added Tofu and they were really nice as well. The staff member taking our order went out of his way to answer all our questions and accommodate for our ingredient changes and vegetarian diets. It was a large order and was done really quickly, on top of being really good value: cheap and sizable portions. Can’t recommend enough!

Love this place. The lunch all you can eat menu is such great value. Loads of choice, including crispy duck. Friendly staff, if a little too attentive. Really well done, as the portions are small, but you can have as many as you want, and try loads of different dishes. Very family friendly
