We loved the food and service was amazing! We would definitely go back for the evening menu too. The waiters were brilliant and very good at telling us about the courses and wine pairings. The plates and cutlery were fab too. The only slight thing was that it was very cold in the restaurant (could be because we sat by the window) but it’s only a slight thing. We loved it all and had a brilliant time. We loved the signed menu we got as we were celebrating my birthday.

I asked to try a curry sauce before ordering which was no problem and I received a small bowl to try. Staff were efficient and took our order quickly and brought drinks and starters quite quickly. It was fairly quiet at the time. Food was excellent, my first time in a Thai restaurant will definitely return to try other dishes.
