Wonderful ! We visited again last week with our friends who have an elderly dog. Understandably, dogs are not allowed in the restaurant. However we were seated in the bar and the staff were kindness itself. There are not many staff yet the waiting is minimal as they all work so hard. The prawn toast is the best I’ve ever had ! Really big prawns on large chunks of bread. Then had chicken satay. For mains we had lamb shank massaman curry which my husband thought was fantastic , and I had chicken and pineapple. Served in a half a pineapple shell. Delish and portions so big I couldn’t eat it all. No room for dessert sadly. Coffee was average but that’s a minor point , Also liked the way service was not added and no one tried to force this on us. We gave 10% as we were very pleased. Just cant wait to go back. You will not be disappointed

Had Sunday lunch here - a good menu of Thai dishes. Nicely spiced with good taste and beautifully cooked main ingredients. Large helpings! Just surprising how empty it was for a Sunday lunchtime - but at least it made it easier for our greyhound to lie down by the table (in the bar - not allowed in the main restaurant).

Ordered food for delivery. One hour late, two hours from ordering. Had to chase, finally turns up. Ask if it's cold now where they mug you off and say no. Course it is. Shame as used before and was good. Won't use again

Great Indian lunch We were meeting up with a friend for Sunday lunch here. We parked on the road outside, which is unlimited on a Sunday. The restaurant looks very appealing both outside and inside. There are a few areas within the restaurant to eat. We were seated immediately in one of the areas to the side. The restaurant was pretty empty and when another party arrived, they were seated on the complete opposite side of the restaurant. This was nice on this occasion as it allowed us to speak at leisure. We ordered drinks while we checked out the menu. The service was very attentive and helpful. Drinks and popadoms arrived first, followed later by our main meal. All of the food was of great quality, good sized portions and full of flavour. I particularly liked the sag paneer and the way they had browned the paneer. The prices were a little on the expensive side, but that is OK because of the quality.

Less than mediocre First time trying out this restaurant. Beef rendang was poor - didn’t taste anything like either Malaysian or Indonesian beef rendang and consistency was watery. Lamb mussaman unusually had carrots in it, potatoes had no seasoning and spices were very light - no depth to flavours. Green chicken curry was watery and chicken pieces had been pre-boiled then added in so lacked depth of flavour. And prawn glass noodle salad has only 2 medium sized prawns, lacked seasoning and spiciness. Not great.
