The food were surprisingly tasty. The taste of the Pad Thai was one of the best that we have tasted around Perth. The Siam Fried rice was also very tasty and have plenty of meats. Three flavoured fish was also spot on, the combination of sweet, sour and salty with a hint of garlic is well balanced. This is, so far, the first Thai restaurant in Perth that was able to surprise our palate (in a good way). Sadly, there were a few things that let us down. Firstly, the food portions were quite small compared to the price (for evening dine-in). Not a very good value. Secondly, although the fried rice were full of meats, they were not finely cut. Instead of cut finely to small pieces, the meats were served in chunky pieces and some of them were a little bit tough. Thirdly, the fish were suppose to have some degree of crispiness on the outside and soft in the inside. However, some of the fish failed to have the intended level of crispiness and softness. The batter were not nicely coated on some of the fish. In summary, very good taste but some improvements are needed to improve the diners overall dining experience.

Absolutely delicious Thai food! My mum's Thai and she's an awesome cook (I'm biased) but this place serves up a pretty authentic version of Pad Thai. Service was fast and friendly. Dishes were fresh and seasoned well. My friend and I sat outside because it was such a lovely evening. I would go back when I'm in the area again next time.
