"quiet and away from the road". There are so many misleading reviews. To be clear, this restaurant fronts the main thoroughfare. It is not quiet and anyone that says different is misleading the reader. The restaurant is new, modern, and appealing. Bob Marley was playing, if that helps set the scene. The menu is an electric mix of Thai/Balinese fusion cuisine. I ordered the Thai BBQ pork and a half order of fried calamari. The starters are priced about as much as the entries and are meant to be shared.

Perfect table preparation also, you see this attention to detail very rarely...
