Picked up a takeaway for dinner and I was blown away by the flavours, all dishes where jam packed with fresh veggies meat and just the right amount of chilli. We had green curry chicken, pad Kee mow, massaman beef and garlic rice and every dish was delicious, I haven't had that good a Thai in a long time so will definitely be ordering there again

Had dinner here the other night and it was quite good. We tried the money bags, chicken pad thai, and the chilli jam pork belly. The money bags came out piping hot and were filled with chicken and vegies. The chicken pad thai was flavoursome and a generous portion. The chilli jam pork was a different flavour I am use too, less sweet and quite saucy making the pork belly lose some of its crispiness. I love how they had a good variety of veggies with this dish. Service was friendly and quick.

Been coming semi-regularly for their chilli basil pork belly. They used to have it as weekday lunch deal but it’s now on the regular menu. A couple dollars more and I had to buy rice to accompany it but still 100% worth the money. Absolutely delicious. The chilli basil pork belly is my favourite go-to Thai dish and I have it all the time and hands down this is the best so far. Plump and juicy pork chucks, not dry or tough or thin slivers that are almost jerky.

Very delicious and also great friendly service, I will be visiting this place many times if they're consistent with their food. The Chicken Laksa is full of favours but unfortunately not on their lunch time menu. Still available but at normal price. Their Peanut Sauce stir fry is on their lunch menu and is also great and delicious.
