We did a phone booking for dinner at 6pm on Friday night, 14 Jan 22. We ordered a Chicken Nibbles as an entree, the chicken was crispy on the outside yet moist in the inside. The dipping Thai sauce was quite satisfying too, not too sweet and there was a surely tanginess that we need. We ordered Whole Snapper, a small Chicken Tom Yum and small Prawn Tom Kha for our main meals. The whole snapper was cooked with tamarind sauce which was not too sweet surprisingly (just perfectly meet our liking), the Tom Yum was refreshing, and the Tom Kha was creamy and delicious. It was a pretty busy night as the tables were all full but we did not wait too long. Hands up for the customer service as well. Foods were top notch and overall a 9/10 dining experience. Will definitely be back.

Lovely lovely eatery just off the main road in the Gisborne City Centre. They are quite popular so would recommend booking a ahead. Their food is definitely quite good and their assortment of specials were definitely worth a try. Their staff dwspite being run off their feet provide a good customer experience. Only let down was their sticky rice and mango dessert (a very popular Thai dish) had frozen mangoes in it. Whilst I can understand using frozen mangoes to keep prices down, at least thaw these before serving! It really ruins an otherwise quite good dish. Will definitely still come again when next in the area.

Had an unhappy and disappointing dinner, it took over half an hour to get our food to the table. Understand there were 10 people sitting next to our table ordered before us, but there were at least 3 takeaways have been picked up before our food serviced, it didn’t feel good at all when you’re hungry and patiently waiting, others got theirs ahead of your order. Then the food has serviced, have to say two dishes were below average, I didn’t realize I was eating drunken noodle at all, very plain. Thai beef salad is supposed to be herby and flavorful but not really, just sweet and sour with fish sauce. Beef has been tenderized, so is the chicken in the noodle.

It was a recommendation of my accommodation and yes, the food tastes very good. It’s no big problem, but the ratio between curry and rice is not balanced. A little bit more rice should be included, I had to pay additionally (no big price). The atmosphere is average, anyway since the food is good, I would come here again.
