We've come here multiple times and this is one of the best most authentic halal Thai restaurant we've been to. The Chef is a lovely Thai lady with over 20 years of experience and you can taste the care that goes into each dish with its unique flavours and undertones.

Everything we ordered here was perfect. A personal favourite is the papaya salad, refreshing, crunchy and fresh. The Thai green curry had a really nice flavour and the chicken wings are super unique. Portion sizes, including meat per dish is really good and when they say spicy, they mean Thai level spicy!

A small menu, a small restaurant with everything executed perfectly and really good service - polite and helpful wait staff who can give you suggestions depending on what you're after.

Absolutely smashing and I'll keep coming back for sure. Thanks for a great experience!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this exceptional Thai restaurant, and it exceeded all expectations! The flavours in every dish were an exquisite symphony of sweet, sour, and spicy. The authenticity of the cuisine truly transported me to the bustling streets of Thailand. The attentive staff and charming ambience added to the overall experience. From the aromatic curries to the tantalizing noodles, each bite was a culinary adventure. If you're craving an unforgettable Thai dining experience, this restaurant is a definite winner. Don't miss out!

We visited for a late lunch early dinner. Food was excellent, we enjoyed every plate that we ordered. We felt that the portions were alot, which I guess is a good thing. Prices are ok. They also treated us to in house tea and coffee, thank you for that. Interior is lovely, restaurant and rest room was clean. We'll definitely be back.

Service was good as is the ambience in this halal Thai restaurant.  The food however was altogether a different story.  We used to have a good Thai restaurant in Clayhall which changed ownership and went to pot.  Thought this would be a good alternative but unfortunately not.  Can't recommend and won't be gonig again which is a shame as the restaurant and food do look the part but the food tastes no where near as good as it looks.

I really enjoyed the Thai red curry which was super tasty and creamy. Then the pad noodles with beef were very nice. The starters were ok. The shop decor is wonderful. Rafi took very good care of us especially when we requested for not too much ice in our mojito.
