If someone’s looking for variety Thai food same as Thailand. I would recommend this restaurant. I found special menus which usually Thai restaurants in the UK don’t have it such as Sukiyaki, Hoi Tod and many kind of noodles even Khao Man Gai or Goong Chae Nam Pla, all are tasty. I have been here 3 times in these 2 weeks. Just main course, already full. Thank you for amazing food.

This restaurant is a real hidden gem. Our meal was excellent, service was good and we took advantage of their current offer. We ordered chicken satay and salt & pepper squid for starters, beef Massaman and chicken Penang curries for mains. It was all so tasty that we’re going to have to go back and try more of the menu.
